Pray with the global church

Living God, we lift up Surabaya where tensions simmer over the protests against Christian-owned businesses. You are the One who looks at the heart, seeing beyond outward appearances and disputes. We ask You to reveal Jesus in this city, dismantling barriers of hostility and paving a way for true peace. Guard those who stand faithfully amidst opposition, and let their lives be a witness to Your grace. Draw near to those who protest with hardened hearts, opening their eyes to truth and love that transcends cultural divides. Let Your kingdom come in Indonesia as it is in heaven, revealing mercy where anger has taken root. To You belong all power and glory, now and forever. Amen.
