Pray with the global church

Faithful Shepherd, we bring before You the plight of Aneeqa Ishaq in Lahore, Pakistan, who has been forcibly taken from her family and compelled into a life not of her choosing. You are a refuge for the oppressed and a stronghold in times of trouble. Guard her heart and mind with Your peace, and deliver her from the hands of those who seek to harm her. Reveal Jesus to those who have taken her, that they might be transformed by His love and truth. Sustain the believers in Pakistan who face persecution and fear, and let the light of Christ shine through their lives. May justice roll on like a river, and righteousness like a never-failing stream. Turn the hearts of leaders and communities toward compassion and truth. For the honor of Your name, we pray. Amen.
