Pray with the global church

King of Heaven, we lift up the leaders and members of Beijing Jiaquan Church, facing detention and pressure in this time. You are the Faithful and True One who rides to conquer, for all authority in heaven and earth belongs to You. Guard these believers held captive for Your name; protect them as they proclaim Your truth even behind closed doors. Let not fear or uncertainty silence their testimony. Instead, embolden them with Your Spirit that they might speak with power. Reveal Jesus as King to those who wield authority in China and open their eyes to the light of Your Gospel. Let the watching communities see His glory over oppression. For Yours is the Kingdom and the power forever. Amen.
