SAT-7 Statement on Middle East Crisis (28 February 2026)
As we watch the news unfolding this morning with heavy hearts we ask for emergency prayers for the people of the Middle East.
At SAT-7 around the globe, we are deeply aware that behind every headline are real people: viewers, believers, children, and communities who long for peace.
Please pray:
• For protection over civilians in every affected area
• For restraint and wisdom among leaders
• For comfort for those living in fear
• For strength for churches and believers
• For de-escalation and lasting peace and justice
All of our language channels are continuing production as normal. Our Persian channel is continuing to share programs despite satellite communication and the internet being disrupted. For the past two days we have been reaching out to viewers via WhatsApp and social media to let them know they are not alone.
Our focus is on sharing hope and prayer to all our viewers who may be able to hear from us with a prayer continually across our screens:
Heavenly Father, In the midst of the sounds of war and anxiety, be the refuge and shield of the people of Iran. Protect the innocent, comfort the broken-hearted, and open a way toward justice, freedom, and peace. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
In moments like this, prayer is not passive. It is powerful. It is standing together before God when the world feels unsteady.
“God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.” – Psalm 46:1
Please join us as we hold the entire region in prayer at this devastating time.
