Prayers for the Persecuted this Christmas

Posted byMikaela Vincent, Author, More Than A Conqueror Books, www.MoreThanAConquerorBooks.comPosted inThe ChurchTags:, , , , , , , , , , , ,

As we gather with loved ones this Christmas and worship God freely in our churches, let’s take a moment to pray together as a family for persecuted Christians throughout the world who don’t have that freedom. Pray for protection, strength, courage, and the Spirit’s empowering to endure suffering and share with the lost.

Lord, we ask You for Christians in closed countries, that You would hide them under the shadow of Your wings, and keep them safe from persecution and harm. Psalm 91. Draw to them those who are true seekers, hungry to know the Living God. Empower and embolden them to share with those You’ve placed in their path, and bring many thousands of lost to You this Christmas season. As Christians gather quietly in secret to celebrate Your birth, shield those meetings from the eyes and ears and knowledge of those who mean them harm. Keep them warm and safe, bless them abundantly, and let them touch the depths of Your grace, love, glory, and felt presence. Perform miracles and signs and wonders to baffle their persecutors and draw lost people to You. May those who have stood so strongly against You for so long crumble now to their knees before You in surrender and worship. And may this coming year be a year of unprecedented growth in church plants, with both Christians and seekers craving to gather together to pray, worship, study Your Word, and grow together. Get Your Word into the hands of those who still have not read it in their own language. Awaken the nations to You. May Your Kingdom come to all the peoples of this earth! In Your glorious name. Amen.
