Pray with the global church

Lord of Hosts, we bring before You the Uyghur people and those who face transnational repression. In this age where technology aids control and fear, be their refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. You see the cries of the oppressed, and Your arm is not too short to save. Guard the hearts of Uyghur believers scattered across lands, that they may be bold and steadfast in faith. Restrain the schemes of those who intend harm, and turn their plans on their heads. Reveal Jesus to officials and all in power in Beijing, that they might know the Savior who brings true freedom. Let Your justice roll down like waters in this season of suffering. For the sake of Your glory and name we ask it. Amen.
