Pray with the global church

Mighty Reconciler, we thank You for the healing taking place in Ikhlaq Masih's body and spirit after the brutal attack he suffered. Guard his heart as he forgives his attackers, and let this powerful act of grace serve as a light shining before men in Pakistan. Comfort him in the lingering pain, both physical and emotional, and continue to heal every wound. Reveal Jesus to those who raised their hands against him — even the most resistant hearts are not beyond Your reach. May they encounter You as the God who turns enemies into friends through the power of Christ's cross. Let Ikhlaq's life testify to Your peace that surpasses understanding. We pray this through Jesus our Savior. Amen.
