Christian Mother In Sudan Chained During Childbirth

Mark 13:13 “You will be hated by all because of My name, but the one who endures to the end, he will be saved.”

A Sudanese woman who was sentenced to death because she refuses to deny Christ gave birth to her daughter while chained to the wall.

Meriam Ibrahim’s American husband Daniel Wani said that while she was actually birthing their daughter Maya her legs were shackled to the wall.  The guards refused to allow her to be unchained to make the birth safer for her or the child.

However, Wani said after days of refusing to allow him to see the child, the head of the prison not only allowed him in to see the child but released his wife so they could have a moment as a family together.

The local courts say they are going to delay her 100 lashes for two years to coincide with her execution.  Initially, the courts ruled she was to be lashed as soon as she gave birth to her child.

Wani told the London Daily Telegraph that the moment was bittersweet knowing that she likely won’t live to see Maya live past age 2.

“I refuse to change. I am not giving up Christianity just so that I can live. I know I could stay alive by becoming a Muslim and I would be able to look after our family, but I need to be true to myself,” Ibrahim said.

  1. I have told everyone that I can about Meriam, Martin, Daniel and now Maya. I pray for her early release in the Name of Jesus. Meriam, you have people all over the world praying for you& Martin & Maya. I pray that the Lord gives you the strength to endure. I pray that Martin & Maya will be healthy and happy. This has captured the heart of America. I pray earnestly that you will be free in Jesus Might and Precious Name. Amen

  2. Let’s continue praying for this woman & for her family’s safety, God is very attuned to all of our needs; small & big ones. This is one of the big ones that we cry out to God to answer this family’s needs. She of course knows that her soul is secure. But such atrocities from the devil. We know Jesus defeated satan at the cross. We know that pleading “His blood” to a circumstance can bring the Holy Spirit’s action for change. Praise Him now for the victories!

  3. Herald call to President Obama.. You speak about FAMILY being the strength of this Nation. This family’s father is an American Citizen and is disabled confined to a wheelchair. He needs his WIFE to help him. Get this family out of Sudan. Save this mother and wife from this death sentence. Just because she is holding fast to her faith and refuses to convert is no reason for her to be KILLED. Nobody has the right to play GOD and tell somebody they have to believe a certain way. President Obama.. GET THIS FAMILY OUT OF MUSLIM SUDAN!!!!!!!!

  8. Satan, do you have ANY idea how you’re gonna PAY for this? You are going to PAY for this! Now, right now, I decree it, in the name of Jesus! I claim hundreds, THOUSANDS of Muslims! In the name of Jesus, your kingdom is laid bare! You OVERstepped your bounds, and right now I spoil your kingdom, in the name of Jesus! For this mother’s shame and torment, you will have double – triple – a hundred thousand fold! For all eternity you will never repay this debt! And now, in the name of Jesus, I decree a thing, that this mother and her child will be released and returned safely home in Jesus’ name! You are nothing, Satan, and Jesus is everything! The name of Jesus is above EVERY other name! You will NOT exalt yourself over the name of Jesus! You will bow to the name of Jesus! You will confess that He is Lord to the glory of God Almighty! And because of what you’ve done, this mother and her baby will bring countless souls into the glorious light of the gospel of Christ in Jesus’ name it is done! In Jesus’ name, and by the comforts of the Holy Ghost, this mother will endure and grow stronger and stronger and you will be totally defeated! Then you have eternity in the lake of fire to look forward to. ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha!

  9. Sad. But It is nice to see how they let her go home to be with family and the delay the lashes. Thank you Jesus! He heard our prayers. I will continue to pray for others that they will have a change of heart and NOT give her the 100 lashes or execute her at all. I pray for a miracle of Jesus Christ HIMSELF to touch all who ruled this to have a change of heart and for them all to learn of the LOVE of Jesus and all get saved.
