God of Justice and Truth, we lift up the believers of Beijing Zion Church as they face trial. You see the hidden motives and the sidestepping of due process, and Your eyes are on the righteous and Your ears attentive to their cry. Uphold Your servants with Your righteous right hand and let truth prevail in their defense. Guard their hearts and strengthen their faith as they prepare and engage this trial. Reveal Jesus to those in authority, and let the light of Your justice shine into the dark corners of this process. Strengthen Your Church in Beijing, that they may stand firm and be a light amid these trials. May Your truth be a shield and defender for them. Let their story be an encouragement to the Church and those who are wondering about You. To You belong justice and vindication, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
