Pray with the global church

God of Refuge and Strength, we lift up the believers in Bangladesh who are navigating a precarious peace following the political shift in their nation. In the midst of uncertainty and fear, let Your steadfast love be their anchor. Establish their hearts in Your truth, that they may not be shaken though the earth gives way. Reveal Jesus to those who persecute out of ignorance or fear, and soften the hearts of those in power to protect the vulnerable. May Your peace, which surpasses understanding, guard the hearts and minds of Your people. Strengthen the Church in Bangladesh to stand firm, that their witness might draw many to the light of Christ. In the name of Jesus, our Rock and Redeemer, Amen.
