King of Heaven, we lift up the believers fleeing Iran, seeking refuge from unjust accusations and prison walls. You see their flight, and in their exodus, remember how You led Israel to freedom through desert paths. Shelter them under Your wings as they step into the unknown. Strengthen those who remain within Iran, give them wisdom and boldness to bear witness under duress. Let Your light shine in the darkness, reaching officials and community leaders with truth and grace. May Your Gospel advance across Iran, breaking down walls of hostility and opening hearts to Your Son. To You be all glory and honor through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
