Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our hearts in prayer for the many urgent needs around the world. Lord, we pray for our persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ, who face unprecedented levels of persecution. Your Word tells us in 2 Timothy 3:12 that "all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution." We ask for Your divine protection, strength, and comfort for these believers. May their faith remain steadfast, and may they find refuge under Your wings.
Lord, we also pray for the peace and salvation of Israel. Your Word in Psalm 122:6 instructs us to "pray for the peace of Jerusalem." We ask that You protect Israel from threats and bring peace to the region. May the people of Israel come to know Jesus as their Messiah and Savior.
Father, we lift up the salvation of many around the world, including the ### unreached. Your Word in 1 Timothy 2:4 says that You "desire all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth." Draw many to Jesus, Lord, and let Your gospel reach the ends of the earth.
We pray for the protection of children around the world, who suffer from unimaginable abuse and exploitation. Lord, Your heart grieves for these little ones. We ask for Your intervention and protection over them. Break the chains of abuse and bring healing and restoration. We also pray against the occult invasion in the media and ask for Your wisdom and discernment to prevail.
Lord, we lift up those on the brink of starvation, especially in ###, ###, ###, and other countries. Provide for their needs, Lord, and bring relief to those suffering from poverty, sickness, and natural and man-made disasters. We ask for Your supernatural provision and protection, especially for the vulnerable—children, women, the elderly, and the infirm.
We pray for an awakening in the universal church, Lord. Let us be aware of the lateness of the hour and the imminent return of Jesus. We ask for sound biblical teaching in churches and protection from falling away. Strengthen Your church, Lord, and keep us faithful to Your Word.
In Jesus' name, we pray for protection, salvation, deliverance, and healing for all those in need. Amen.
