Pray with the global church

God of Justice and Compassion, we lift up our voices for India, where violence has struck Your servant, and authorities have looked away. Your heart is for the oppressed. Shield the pastor who was beaten, and incline Your ear to his cries, bringing healing and courage to his spirit. Let Your righteousness shine like the dawn in this land, revealing Jesus to those who oppose Your name. Strengthen the church in India to stand firm. Be a beacon of truth and love amid hostility. May Your justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream. It is in Your powerful name that we trust and pray, Amen.
