Pray with the global church

God of Justice and Truth, we lift up the nation of Belarus where two Christian defenders of religious freedom face prosecution. As accusations rise and charges remain unspecified, we appeal to You, who judges rightly and knows the hearts of all men. Vindicate those who stand for Your truth and defend the cause of justice; let Your light and truth lead them through the darkness of uncertainty. Reveal Jesus to the authorities and those who seek to silence Your witnesses. Let the Church in Belarus be a beacon of hope, and let righteousness flow like a stream across this land. May Your presence guide the persecuted and the persecutors alike. For Your name’s sake, we ask this through Christ, our advocate and redeemer. Amen.
