Pray with the global church

God of All Nations, we lift up the church in East Java, Indonesia, as they face opposition to their gathering place. You have said that where two or three are gathered in Your name, there You are among them. Establish Your presence among these believers, that their faith might be strengthened despite the challenges they face. Open the eyes of those who oppose them, that they might see the light of Christ. Let peace be their portion and guard their hearts from fear. May the church in Surabaya be a beacon of Your love and truth, drawing others to the grace found in Jesus. Protect their unity and let their worship rise as a fragrant offering to You. For Your glory and by Your Spirit, we ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
