Pray with the global church

Lord God, we lift up the family and community of Milad Malak, who bore witness to faith in Jesus even unto death. You see the pain of his loss, and You will wipe away every tear from their eyes. Guard their hearts with Your peace that surpasses understanding, standing as their refuge and strength. We ask that You confront those who took his life with the power of Your love. Open their eyes to the truth that can set them free, and turn them from darkness to light. Let Your Word run swiftly across Libya, touching hearts hardened by hatred and fear. Strengthen believers there to stand firm as shining lights in a dark place, with courage that confounds their oppressors. Let Milad’s testimony echo through this region for the glory of Your Son Jesus. Amen.
