Pray with the global church

God of Justice and Mercy, we lift before You the Uyghur people facing forced assimilation under China's ethnic unity law. You see their suffering, and Your heart is with the oppressed. Let truth and justice spring up in this land, and dismantle every system that crushes the human spirit. Strengthen the believers among the Uyghurs, that they may be rooted in Your love amidst trials. Reveal Jesus to those enforcing these laws, turning hearts of stone to hearts of flesh. Let mercy triumph over judgment, and bring reconciliation where there is division. In Your unfailing love and wisdom, work Your purposes in China, that Your name might be honored and known. We trust in Your righteous governance, through Jesus Christ, our Redeemer. Amen.
