Pray with the global church

God of Justice, we lift up Vietnam where a pastor now faces years behind bars for standing firm in Your name. You see him, Almighty God, confined yet free in spirit. Strengthen his heart with the truth that if You are for us, who can be against us? Guard those in Vietnam who worship amid pressure and fear; let their faith grow stronger still. Reveal Jesus to those who persecute and imprison, breaking open the hardest of hearts to receive Him. Let Your light shine in every dark place and sustain those who labor quietly for Your Kingdom. All glory and power belong to You, the God who redeems. Amen.
