PERSECUTED CHURCH IN PAKISTAN

Prayer Warrior And Ambassador Of The Lord Jesus Christ.

Pakistan is a hostile country for Christians however, the Lord Jesus Christ is using His people tremendously across the country to spread the Gospel and he changing the lives of non-Christians. Pastor Anwar Fazal, a sincere and humble man of God, hosted a two day conference in the city of Lahore, Pakistan. He invited Guillermo Maldonado from the United States. His team is used for preaching the Gospel and praying for sick, and needy people. This is the first time a Christian conference for pastors has been held in Pakistan. But, pastor Anwar took this initiative to empower pastors with the Word Of God. Moreover, only two weeks have passed since the severe incident occurred in a small town of Jaranwala, Pakistan where hostile Muslims burned up houses of innocent Christians.

As it is already written in the Word Of God, (Mathew 10:22) “you will be hated by all men for my name’s sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved”. No matter what circumstance, or persecution Church is going through, we all need to be bold (Matthew 10:32; Proverbs 28:1; Hebrews 4:16) and have full faith in our Redeemer The Lord Jesus Christ Who is Coming Very Soon To take us with Him.

Man Of God, Pastor Anwar took a bold step and arranged a 2 day conference in Lahore with his beloved wife Nida Anwar and faithful younger brother Shoukat Fazal. Seven thousand pastors representing 170 cities across Pakistan attended the conference. They were being taught, trained and activated in the supernatural power of God. They returned to their cities empowered to go and win souls and reap the end time harvest. We all know that the Lord Jesus Christ Has given pastor Anwar a giving heart. He strives to lift up needy Christians in Pakistan. At this conference he distributed motor bikes to pastors which came from various cities and towns.

Not only this, in Jaranwala city which was completely burned up by hostile non-Christians, Anwar again fervently sent his team to distribute food, and money to persecuted Christians. He also went to that town to share his condolences with the families there and provided them money and vehicles to open small businesses so they can earn for their children (In Pakistan, Christian’s have a hard time finding work). Eternal Life Ministries (ELM) is always one step ahead to assist persecuted Church in Pakistan. Furthermore, this dedicated man of God has arranged several crusades in different cities of Pakistan such as Sialkot, Gujranwala, Narowal, Faisalabad, Sheikhupura and many other cities with his wife Nida. They helped people who are struggling with poverty by providing them with vehicles and money so they, too, can start up their businesses.

Pastor Anwar has a burning heart for his people and he makes sure to help them no matter what! Apart from that, he has assisted several people to open up boutiques, beauty parlors, utility stores, and much more. These people are now earning good income for their families. Pakistan has been fortunate enough that the Heavenly Father has put pastor Anwar Fazal in this country. He is not only helping Christians but his heart is equal for non-Christians as well. Because, the Lord Jesus Christ Has Said: “Love Those Who Hate You, Pray For Those Who Persecute You”. Anwar is doing exactly that. In his crusades more than 700,000 people physically attend, Christians and non-Christians both and get their miracles, healing and share their testimonies that how the Lord has touched and healed them, as well as millions attend online.

Lastly, he is a humble and hearty servant of God, those who work with him or meet him they know and can tell how sincere and great man of God he is.
