Pray with the global church

Redeemer, we lift before You the former Muslim boldly proclaiming Christ despite facing rejection and violence. You are the refuge for those who have lost homes and families for Your name's sake. Sustain him with courage and peace as he bears witness to Your love in places of hostility. Guard his heart from fear and strengthen his resolve to stand firm. Reveal Jesus to those who have turned against him, that they might encounter Your grace and be transformed by Your Spirit. Let the Gospel shine brightly through his testimony, drawing many in that region toward the light of Christ. For the glory of Your name and the furtherance of Your kingdom, we pray. Amen.
