Pray with the global church

Shepherd, we bring the believers of China before You as they face relentless opposition and suppression. Strengthen their hearts to stand firm amid this oppression, for You uphold those who suffer for Your name's sake. Let their faith endure every trial. Reveal Jesus to the officials and leaders in China, that they might see Him as the true light that cannot be overcome by darkness. Guard those whose voices have been silenced, and let truth rise in places of control and censorship. Establish Your peace over tensions and wars waged against faith, making room for justice and mercy to flourish. In the unfolding of these days, guide world leaders towards wisdom and understanding. We trust You with all this, believing You are at work even when eyes do not see. Amen.
