Read Isaiah 60:1-2, as you pray with us today.

Lord, we ask You for Christians all throughout the world who are undergoing persecution at this time. Give them strength and courage to endure, forgive, love, and proclaim Your Good News, even in the face of great hardship. Give them wisdom every moment to know what to do, where to go, what to say; and empower them, Lord, to be lights in the darkness, pointing every heart to the glory of Your love. 

For those who are imprisoned or in danger of arrest or torture, rescue them and their families, please, Lord, by Your merciful hand. Deliver them in such miraculous ways, their persecutors will fall to their knees in worship of the One True God.

And for those of us throughout the world who are facing each of our own difficulties and hardships, make us bold witnesses. Anoint and empower us to share Your love every moment in ways that will spark deep hunger in the hearts of the lost around us to know the God of Love. For the day has come now, Lord, where You are bringing the nations to our own neighborhoods. Give us courage to reach out and love. Tear down every barrier, and bring the lost to You. In Your name, Jesus, we pray. Amen.
