Pray with the global church

Lord of Hosts, we lift up Kyrgyzstan where Your church faces heavy persecution after the deportation of their pastor. Authorities have detained and convicted believers under false charges of extremism, aiming to silence their witness. Guard these faithful ones as they face trials, and strengthen them with Your Spirit that no prison wall can contain. Reveal Jesus to officials overseeing these unjust measures, and let Your light break into hearts hardened against the Gospel. Open doors for the Good News to spread even under pressure, and make truth prevail over accusation. Keep the church in Kyrgyzstan steadfast, that they may endure in hope and show forth Your glory amid adversity. We ask this in the name of our victorious Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
