Djibouti Rejected by Family, but Resolute in Faith

2/13/2025  (VOM)

A Muslim man was disowned by his family for placing his faith in Christ after his daughter’s miraculous healing. Moussa, 65, was a devout Muslim until around five years ago when his daughter began experiencing severe abdominal pain. After seeking the aid of imams and local physicians without success, Moussa prayed to Christ for his daughter’s healing. His wife, Safia, had been a follower of Christ for more than three decades, consistently praying for her husband’s salvation. At one point, Moussa had even kicked her out of their home because of her Christian faith. After Moussa prayed for his daughter, she was healed. “I could not deny that God is truly and only found in Christianity,” he said. He joyfully shared the Good News with his Muslim siblings and relatives, who disowned him for his witness. Though Moussa is heartbroken from his family’s rejection, he is full of the joy of the Lord.

Please pray…

• Praise the Lord for Moussa’s salvation and the healing of his daughter.

• Pray that the Lord will comfort and encourage Moussa as he and his family have been disowned by his siblings and relatives.

• Pray that Moussa will grow in his faith and have a loving witness to his siblings and relatives.
