Pray with the global church

Lord of Hosts, we come to You as Red Week draws attention to the plight of persecuted Christians across the globe. You hear the cries of the oppressed and see those who stand firm in faith amidst trial. Strengthen Your people who gather under threat or hostility, that they may endure with grace. Reveal Jesus to governments and communities that resist Your name, turning hearts from persecution toward peace. Unveil the beauty of freedom in Christ to those who oppose it, transforming their zeal into a witness for Your kingdom. Raise up voices from these churches that proclaim hope where fear has silenced many. Establish Your justice and let righteousness flow like a river, reaching every nation. We ask it all for the sake of Your glorious name. Amen.
