Pray that God would extend mercies to him and send a witness of the gospel to him and that he would believe and be forgiven before his death.

God bless you, Jason. That is a wonderful idea. I am praying.
God, I know that all things are possible with You. The headlines say his fate is sealed. But is it? Only you have power over that. Remember your love towards that sinner on the cross beside Jesus. Everyone would have thought that while he was pierced dying, there was nothing more to do for him. But You Yourself saved him... in those last painful hours, You said.. "I'll see you in paradise." God, I pray in Yeshua's name that you save this sinner too... show us your greatest glory, God, Father, we believe in your grace. Send Sadaam a faithful witness of the Gospel to save him. For it is not your will that he should perish, God. You saved the criminal, you saved Paul, you saved me. Please, Father, we beg you to save Saddam. That He may see your glory and praise you forever with us in Heaven. God, I know you have heard this prayer. In Yeshua's name I have prayed. Amen.

God of Compassion,
You let your rain fall on the just and the unjust.
Expand and deepen our hearts
so that we may love as You love,
even those among us
who have caused the greatest pain by taking life.
For there is in our land a great cry for vengeance
as we fill up death rows and kill the killers
in the name of justice, in the name of peace.
Jesus, our brother,
you suffered execution at the hands of the state
but you did not let hatred overcome you.
Help us to reach out to victims of violence
so that our enduing love may help them heal.
Holy Spirit of God,
You strengthen us in the struggle for justice.
Help us to work tirelessly
for the abolition of state-sanctioned death
and to renew our society in its very heart
so that violence will be no more. Amen.

Amen. I will pray for him sincerely. I have no wish to see anyone go to the gallows. To me, death is not the answer for any crime. He should be let to live and spend the rest of his natural life at hard labor. God bless you.

Father,
You love Saddam as much as you love any of us, and you sent your Son to die for Saddam Hussein. You don't wish that he would be lost. We pray that, in these final hours of his life, you would speak to him through your Spirit and let him know that he needs to repent and get right with you before he meets you. Forgive us for feeling any hatred for this man. Let your will be done in this matter. In the name of Jesus we ask this, amen.

God bless him. That he may find the wisdom to acknowledge his wrongdoings. Pray for him, for God wants his children, good or bad to be with Him in paradise. Only our prayers can do that.

Saddam take this last chance to reach out to the hand of Jesus who is alive and takes you to the father. Mo is dead.
