Pray with the global church

God of Hope and Restoration, we lift up the believers in Syria who stand firm in their faith amid the trials they face. They dwell in a land marked by suffering, yet You are the God who comforts the downcast and raises up the faithful. Strengthen the youth and leaders within the Syrian church, that they may grow in wisdom and stature, like Paul and Barnabas teaching the early Church in Antioch. May Your Spirit fill them with courage to be light in the darkness, and may their lives be a testimony of Your grace and truth. Reveal Jesus to the communities around them, to those who do not yet know Your peace. Establish Your Church in Syria, that Your name may be glorified. For the glory of Your kingdom we pray, in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
