Prayer for the Nations - Fiji
Introduction to Fiji:
Fiji is a tropical island nation located in the South Pacific, known for its crystal-clear waters, vibrant coral reefs, and lush landscapes. While it’s a popular tourist destination, Fiji’s cultural richness goes far beyond its scenic beauty. The country has a diverse population of indigenous Fijians and Indo-Fijians, each with distinct traditions and religious practices. Christianity is the dominant faith, particularly Methodism, but there is also a significant Hindu and Muslim population. Fiji enjoys relative political stability, but challenges such as poverty, climate change, and social inequalities affect the daily lives of many. With a population of nearly 900,000, Fiji is a small yet important mission field where the gospel continues to take root and grow.
This week, let’s focus our prayers on Fiji. We ask that you join us in praying for the people of this island nation—that God would bless their land, guide their leaders, and strengthen the Christian community to be a light to all. Let’s pray that the gospel continues to expand and reach every corner of this beautiful nation.
