"Han Lever!" ("He Lives!")

A new national campaign is taking shape in Denmark, leveraging two special days when ordinary Danes show up in church—Easter and Christmas. It’s called “Han Lever,” or “He Lives,” and it’s bringing together a number of different Christian groups who are excited to see lives changed and people reached for Christ.

Though it’s still in the planning stages, we can pray even now for what’s going to happen. Here’s what they’re saying in a video on the movement’s website, hanlever.dk—


“Yes! Jesus Christ lives. That is my hope. It is my only hope. Also for my friends and fellow Danes. We want to testify about him. We long to tell Danes that Jesus still lives. Because Jesus is the best thing that has ever happened to humanity. 


“So we’ve got an idea—for Easter and Christmas 2025 we want to shed extra light and focus on our hope for even more Danes. We want to do this through testimony and videos that can be shared. Through flyers, songs, and a logo that will come to life, though worship services where we invite the entire city. 


“And most importantly, we will encourage each other, and pray for God’s Spirit to intervene and transform hearts in Denmark. Working together and with renewed boldness, we wish, so to speak, to knock on the windows, and demonstrate a life for Jesus. Because he lives! And because Jesus still transforms life and gives hope.”


Let’s pray!


PRAY that God will bring together the right people, even now, to be a part of the movement.


PRAY for unity across many different Christian groups, that the Spirit of God would move as never before to bring salvation to the lost.


PRAY, as the video mentioned, for renewed boldness among believers to share the message of hope in Jesus Christ.


PRAY, even now, that God will start to prepare hearts for many to come to know him in the “He Lives” outreach movement. 


PRAY that God will surprise the organizers of “He Lives” with much more than just a two-day holiday outreach. (Ephesians 3:20)
