Lord, Empower Us to Love
Pray for protection, courage, and empowering from the Lord for those who stand for what is right and good, but who are persecuted relentlessly by those who disagree, who have been blinded by the enemy and push his purposes, rather than God’s.

Persecution in Afghanistan
Father, as the resurgent Taliban in Afghanistan goes door-to-door executing Christians who will not renounce their faith, please rise up and fight for Your children. Surround every believer with Your angels. Push back evil, and bring forth good.
