Lily Meschi, director of Iran Alive Ministries, said protests raging in Iran are “not surprising,” as such events unfold there “every couple of years.”
But these protests feel a bit different from other recent uprisings.
“It’s very saddening,” Meschi said. “It is very concerning because of how many people are getting killed in the streets of Iran, across Iran, in every city, and province. It’s just very sad.”
The nonprofit leader, who lives in the U.S. but was born and raised in Iran, said it’s an important time to pray for the Iranians and lift them up to the Lord. Iran Alive, her organization, uses satellite TV and other technologies to spread the Gospel into Iran.
Meschi continued, “They reach out, they go, ‘You know, we have seen Jesus in our dream, and He healed us from such and such disease in the hospital room. I don’t know where to start. … I want to believe in Him. I want to trust Him.’”
She said some of these Muslims have had real physical healings as a result of these encounters.
“They had real physical healings, and Jesus appears to them in their visions, in their dreams,” Meschi said. “And making Himself known to them, so they know that it was Jesus. When they contact us, they already know that Jesus healed them, and they just want to know more about this Jesus.”
