Pray with the global church

Lord of Hosts, we bring before You the state of Karnataka and the demands to repeal the restrictive anti-conversion law. Your Word runs swiftly, and no human ordinance can hinder its progress. Stand with the Christian minority leaders and human rights advocates as they seek justice for those oppressed under this law. Reveal Jesus to the lawmakers and officials in Karnataka — may their hearts turn from resisting truth to embracing Your mercy. Sustain Your people who face these unjust restrictions; may their love and witness overflow like a river that cannot be held back. Let justice roll on like a mighty stream, breaking down barriers that confine the good news of Jesus. We trust in Your steadfast love and righteousness. In Christ's name, Amen.
