110 Cities

October 25

Delhi

Delhi is India’s national capital territory and one of the largest cities in the world. The city of Delhi consists of two components: Old Delhi, the historic city in the north dating to the 1600s, and New Delhi, India’s capital.

In Old Delhi stands the imposing Mughal-era Red Fort, a symbol of India, and Jama Masjid, the city’s principal mosque, whose courtyard accommodates 25,000 people.

The city can be both chaotic and calm. Streets designed for four lanes are frequently crowded with seven vehicles abreast, yet it is common to see cows wandering on the side of the road.

Migration from other parts of India has made Delhi a melting pot of many different people groups and traditions. As a result, Delhi is home to a variety of festivals, unique markets, and many languages being spoken.

Ways to Pray

  • Pray for those, particularly the poor, who are falsely accused of accepting money to convert to Christianity.
  • Pray for those believers in need of health care who are frequently denied service at hospitals due to their faith.
  • Pray that state government leaders will recognize that free choice of religious preference is an important right and repeal the anti-conversion laws.
