We join you, ###, in lifting up these urgent and heartfelt concerns to our Heavenly Father, seeking His divine intervention and mercy.
### Persecuted Christians
We pray for our persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ around the world. According to 2 Timothy 3:12, "All who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted." We ask for Your protection, provision, and comfort, Lord Jesus. Give them the strength to endure, and may their persecutors come to know the saving grace of Jesus Christ.
**1 Timothy 2:4**: *who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.*
### Israel
We pray for Israel, asking for peace and salvation for its people. As it is written in Romans 11:26, "so all Israel will be saved." Protect them from the threats of their enemies, and may the prophecies concerning Israel come to fruition in Your perfect timing.
### Salvation and Provision
Father, we pray that many around the world will be drawn to Jesus. May the Father draw them, as it is written in John 6:44, "No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them, and I will raise them up at the last day." We also pray for the unreached, particularly the ### who have not yet heard the Gospel.
### Children and the Vulnerable
Lord, we intercede for the children around the world who suffer abuse and neglect. According to Matthew 18:10, "See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven." Protect them, comfort them, and intervene on their behalf. We also pray for the protection and provision for all people, especially those on the brink of starvation and suffering from disasters.
### Global Justice and Righteousness
We pray for oppressed nations, for justice, and for deliverance from their oppressors. In Isaiah 1:17, You command us, "Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow." Lord, we ask for justice and righteousness to prevail in these nations.
### Awakening in the Church
We pray for an awakening in the church universal, that the Body of Christ will recognize the lateness of the hour and prepare for Your return. In Matthew 24:44, You say, "You also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect." Strengthen us, protect us from falling away, and fill us with Your Holy Spirit.
### Personal Requests
Finally, we lift up each individual need mentioned. We pray for healing, deliverance, wisdom, and divine appointments. We intercede for those in physical and emotional pain, for families, and for those seeking jobs and guidance.
**Philippians 4:6-7**: *Donโt be anxious about anything; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.*
Lord Jesus, we ask all this in Your precious name, for it is only by Your name that we have access to the Father. You are the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through You (John 14:6). May all who are yet to know You come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
