U.S. Refugee Policies Leave Persecuted Christians with Fewer Paths to Safety
Christians facing persecution around the world are finding fewer pathways to safety in the United States as the country’s refugee resettlement program remains effectively suspended, and new asylum procedures change how some claims are initially reviewed.
Pray →Redeemer, we turn our hearts to those believers facing persecution around the world who find fewer paths to safety in the United States. Shelter them under Your wing where no harm can touch them. Make a way where there seems to be no way, opening doors for refuge that no man can shut. Raise up leaders willing to act with compassion and justice, that their policies would reflect Your heart for the oppressed. Reveal Jesus even amidst these barriers, that officials and communities might see and know Him. Protect Your children with an unseen hand until safety comes. For Your name's sake and glory, Amen.

Reveal Jesus in every courtroom, every investigation, and every heart touched by these events. Dismantle networks of violence and let mercy triumph over judgment. For the sake of Your great name, we ask these things in Jesus' name. Amen.

Pray →Lord of Hosts, we turn to You for Natalie Abudayyeh and all those facing imprisonment in Ramallah. In a place where walls and bars hold many, may Your presence be felt deeply. Reveal Yourself as the one who sets captives free and binds up broken hearts. May these cells be filled with singing, joy, and laughter. Turn a place of confinement into a place of remembrance and meditation of You. Guard Natalie with Your peace that surpasses understanding, keeping her mind and heart strong. Grant her an unyielding hope, even behind iron doors. Turn the eyes of authorities toward justice, and reveal Jesus to both captors and prisoners alike. We ask for a grace-filled transformation throughout Israel and Palestine, where swords are beaten into plowshares. For the glory of Your great name we pray. Amen.
