commander of AQAP before his death from a drone attack in 2011. According to experts, Yemen is the perfect base for AQAP because of its political instability and the popular support radicals receive from citizens. “Weapons, training, crossing points and the launch of operations have all come from Yemen,” says a terrorism specialist. Yemen is now “the third-largest haven” for al-Qaeda. AQAP is considered to be the best-funded al-Qaeda affiliate and is increasingly active. In a statement released after the Christmas Day bombing attempt, AQAP said, “We call on all Muslims… to throw out all unbelievers from the Arabian Peninsula by killing crusaders who work in embassies or elsewhere… a total war on all crusaders in the Peninsula of Muhammad.” Sources: The Guardian, The National

Pray for
an immediate end to this demonically-inspired organization. Pray for AQAP’s recruiting efforts to fail, their plans to commit acts of violence to be exposed, and their funding to be cut off. (The Bible, Psalm 17:13) the Gospel to be preached to AQAP and their potential recruits. Petition the Lord to use the internet, satellite television, radio, and personal witnessing to reach them. (The Bible, Romans 10:14,15) the salvation of leaders and members of AQAP. Ask the Lord to open their blind minds and allow them to see the Light of Christ. Pray for Him to draw them into relationship with Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. (The Bible, 2 Corinthians 4:4) the Kingdom of God to come to the Arabian Peninsula in power, with signs, wonders, miracles, dreams, and visions. (The Bible, Acts 2:17)
