2 Samuel 22:3-4 NCV My God is my rock. I can run to him for safety. He is my shield and my saving strength, my defender and my place of safety. The Lord saves me from those who want to harm me. I will call to the Lord, who is worthy of praise, and I will be saved from my enemies.
The prayers of millions of Christians throughout the world were answered joyously with the release of Sudanese Christian Meriam Ibrahim.
Sudan’s SUNA news agency said the ruling was made Monday morning. The appeals court cancelled the verdict and sentence of the previous court meaning that Ibrahim could be immediately released from prison. She and her children were reportedly taken to a house that was not disclosed to the press for security reasons as she and her family have received death threats from Islamists.
Ibrahim was convicted by a Sudanese court last month of apostacy and adultery because though she said she was always a Christian and married a Christian man, the court said she was Muslim because her father was Muslim and thus could not convert to Christianity or marry a Christian man. Her child proved her adultery in the eyes of the court.
She gave birth to her second child while in prison and was forced to give birth with her legs shackled to the wall.
Ibrahim, married to American Daniel Wani, had been the subject of international outcry with British Prime Minster David Cameron, former PM Tony Blair and former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton calling for her immediate release.
The family has not said if she will remain in Sudan. Her husband had told various news outlets during her imprisonment that they would flee the country if she was ever set free.
I am Praying for their safety and Release.
O God, your people are rejoicing today in great measure! Hear the joy of your people now, and let it bless your heart! Hallalujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Praise God! How we thank you for hearing and answering our prayers in Jesus’ name. Hallelujah!

God is truly a faithful, he will performed his word concerning his children.
Remember to both praise Him, as well as to not relent in prayers & intercession as led of the Lord. This family needs continued prayers for safety both there & here.
Thank You Father God, in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, amen, so be it, for Your glory & honor. Servant of God, Pamela
Thank our magnificent Lord and may He continue to keep the whole family in His care along with all who worked for her freedom.
To Meriam Ibahim and Family; If this doesn’t PROVE to our Government, that these Countries are Terrorist, what in GOD’S name do we need to keep the Terriorists in prisons and out of our Country! GOD is watching America, and if this continues we may see our Own Christians treated as Evil doers. God’s word says in the end times that what is Evil will now be considered GOOD and what is Good will become evil. Thank you Jim for the updates and truth of your program.
God Bless Lainey

yes, praise our Lord Jesus Christ for her and her children’s release from the prison; now please whoever sees this, go to aclj.org and sign the petition to bring them into the United States for they are not safe in Sudan; there was news that her half brother had agreed to kill her if she was released; her children are considered American citizens as is her husband, so should be allowed into our country!!
Praise God!! So important for the children to have their mother.

Thank God she was released from prison. I, too, thank you Jim for letting us know this news, as I have not heard it on any other news outlet. I pray they will flee the country and come home to America.
Yes, Praise the Lord for her release! I have just signed a new petition through ACLJ (American Center for Law and Justice – Jay Sekulow) to have the judge release her to come back to America with her children and reunite with her husband. Please continue in prayer for her full release.
