Pray with the global church

Maker of Heaven and Earth, we bring before You the church in India as they prepare to unite in prayer for their persecuted brothers and sisters. You are the one who binds up the brokenhearted and strengthens the feeble knees. Let this gathering of prayer echo with Your presence, drawing near to those who are weary and heavy laden. Guard the believers as they intercede, and let their cries rise like incense before You. Open the eyes of those who oppose them, that they might see Your light shining through dark circumstances. May peace overflow in places of hostility and faith take deeper root where fear seeks to dominate. We ask for a powerful move of Your Spirit across India, in churches, families, and regions that do not yet know Your name. For Your glory and under Your hand, we pray. Amen.
