With the Sabbath commandment, God provided a rhythm that mirrored his own. Even in death, Jesus' disciples took a break from burial rites. As Christians, we follow a God who is the Lord of the Sabbath, the creator of the heavens and earth and all that is in it.
The WEA is is calling for a prayer vigil on Holy Saturday this year. Across the world, communities are suffering. Wars rage, families are displaced, persecution rises, and nations groan under the weight of injustice and aftermath of natural disasters. The pain is real, the need is urgent. There is so much that needs to be done.
Yet, we serve a sovereign God. A God that is good. A God who sent His son to suffer so that the world can be reconciled back to Him.
In the face of the pain and suffering, we cry for His Kingdom to come, for eyes to see and for hands to not tire. Collectively, we affirm the message of the cross and the Good News for the times we are living in.
April 19, 2025, Holy Saturday, we invite believers from every nation to stand together in 24 hours of non-stop prayer.
