Pray with the global church

God of All Comfort, we lift up the people of Gaza, grieving the loss of young lives and enduring the shadow of continuing conflict. You are near to the brokenhearted; let Your presence be felt among those mourning today. Bring Your peace into homes filled with sorrow, and Your justice into a region weary of violence. Reveal Jesus to families longing for safety, to children who grow up too quickly, and to all those trapped in cycles of enmity. Strengthen believers in Gaza to be agents of peace and truth, and let their witness be a light in the darkness. For the sake of Your name, let Your kingdom come and Your will be done in this land. We ask in the name of Jesus, our Prince of Peace. Amen.
