Pray with the global church

Most High God, we lift up Your servant Park Tae Yeon in Russia, sentenced yet holding fast to the hope set before him. Establish him in Your strength as he faces the weight of this sentence. May he be unshaken and secure as Mount Zion, knowing that those who trust in You cannot be moved. Guard his heart and mind with a peace that passes understanding, and let his witness shine even in chains, drawing others to the light of Christ. Break through the darkness surrounding his case; reveal truth to judges and authorities considering his appeal. Bring salvation to many through this trial, and let justice roll down like waters across Russia. For the sake of Your name and for the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.
