Pray with the global church

King of Heaven, we cry out for Pakistan, where forced conversions and child marriages steal the innocence of so many. Hear the cries of children who long to be free and safe, running to You as their Father. Raise up justice like a mighty river in this land. Restrain those who wield power unjustly and change hearts that have grown cold. Reveal Jesus to government officials and judges who hold authority, that they may act with righteousness and mercy. Let Your Church shine as a light in dark places, lifting up the oppressed and proclaiming hope for those bound by fear. Deliver these children, whom You see as a bride prepared for Christ. We seek Your intervention now, in the name of Jesus our Redeemer. Amen.
