Pray with the global church

God of Justice and Compassion, we lift up the prisoners in Israel and the occupied territories, who face restricted visitation despite the recent High Court ruling. You see those in confinement and know their cries. Establish Your justice in these places, and let Your righteousness roll down like waters across this land. Reveal Jesus to both the authorities and those in confinement, breaking through walls of hostility with the power of Your love. Sustain the families longing for reunion and keep their hope alive. Guide the Red Cross and other advocates as they work for justice and mercy. You have promised that mercy will triumph over judgment. We entrust these prisoners and their families to Your unfailing care, for the sake of Your name. Amen.
