Pray with the global church

Lord God, we lift up the Coptic Christians of Egypt, longing for justice and equal treatment amid longstanding discrimination. You are the rock on which they stand, and in You they find refuge when resolutions falter and opposition rises. Let truth shine forth, revealing Jesus to lawmakers, officials, and all who have influence in Washington. Strengthen the believers to endure with grace while waiting for breakthrough and show Your might by changing hearts that resist righteousness. Reveal Yourself as Defender to those marginalized by power games, and let Your light expose any hidden motives that hinder justice. For Your truth endures forever; let it reign over Egypt through Jesus our Lord. Amen.
