As we pray Isaiah 51:5, for God to bring His righteousness, salvation, justice, and hope in our own nation, let’s also remember the billions throughout the world facing fear and uncertainty in these difficult days, especially in nations closed to the Good News of Christ’s love.

A Prayer for Our Nation from Isaiah 51:1-6
Lord, it’s easy to feel, “I’m just one person. What difference can I make?” Give us courage to not give up, but to persist in prayer, listening to You and pursuing the things of Your heart.

Building Oneness with Christ

Pray for Those Trapped in Strongholds
A stronghold is a habitual sin or negative thought process that has such a “strong hold” on you it controls your responses rather than the Holy Spirit.
