Pray with the global church

Rock of Ages, we come before You on behalf of believers suffering across 18 nations, where persecution has intensified over recent years. We thank You for the love increasing in their hearts, even as they love not their own lives unto death. Unite Your church in these places so that they may be one as You and the Father are one. Strengthen them to stand firm when pressured to turn away from Christ. Reveal Jesus to those who oppose them, that their eyes might see and their hearts be softened by His glory. Rescue the oppressed and open doors for the Gospel to advance unhindered across these lands. Let Your kingdom come with power, establishing peace where there is none. For the glory of Your name and in unity through Christ our Lord. Amen.
