Pray with the global church

God of Justice and Protector of the oppressed, we lift up the pastor in India whose church and home have been set on fire. You see the threats and false accusations against him, and Your eyes are upon the righteous. Establish Your justice in this situation and let truth prevail where lies have taken root. Guard the hearts of this pastor and his congregation, keeping them in perfect peace as they trust in You. Reveal Jesus to the neighbors and those who have sought harm, turning their hearts from violence to the knowledge of Your love. Strengthen the Church in India to stand firm in the face of persecution, that the light of Your gospel would shine even more brightly in the darkness. In the name of Jesus, the Lord of all hope, Amen.
