Pray with the global church

Creator God, You made every nation on earth and know each heart in the Dhamtari district where churches are now restricting access. You see the fear that persecution sows among believers, and still Your call is for Your children to be a light to the world. Comfort those who stand firm in faith while facing hostility. Open doors that no man can shut, drawing many into the warmth of community and truth. Stir a hunger for peace across Chhattisgarh — a desire deeper than division. Let Your Word run swiftly, uniting believers in love and drawing non-believers into Your grace. Reveal Jesus as the Door through which all may enter and find salvation. You are our refuge and strength; in Your hands, we trust this region. In the name of Christ, our Redeemer. Amen.
