Let us come together in prayer and lift up the many concerns and requests that have been shared. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ, for it is by His name that we are saved and have access to the Father. As it is written in Acts 4:12 (WEB), "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men by which we must be saved!"
Firstly, we pray for the persecuted Christians around the world. Father, we ask for Your divine protection and intervention for the ### million Christians facing persecution. Comfort them and give them the strength to endure, just as You promised in 2 Timothy 3:12, "Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution."
We lift up Israel, praying for peace and salvation. Lord, we ask that You bless Israel and Jerusalem, and that Your prophetic plans for them will unfold according to Your will. As Psalm 122:6 says, "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper."
We intercede for the salvation of many around the world, including the ### billion unreached. May the Father draw them to Jesus, just as He promised in John 12:32, "And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself."
We pray for the protection of children worldwide who are suffering from physical, sexual, and psychological abuse. Lord, intervene and put an end to these atrocities. Smite the works of darkness and grant these children Your supernatural protection and provision. As Psalm 10:18 says, "to judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may terrify no more."
We pray for those on the brink of starvation and those suffering from poverty, sickness, and natural disasters. Lord, provide for their needs and be their refuge and strength, as Psalm 46:1 promises, "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble."
We ask for an awakening in the church universal, that we may be filled with the Holy Spirit and walk in love and unity. May we be equipped to proclaim Jesus to the world, as He commanded in Matthew 28:19-20, "Go, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I commanded you. Behold, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. Amen."
We lift up the many personal and family concerns, asking for Your healing, salvation, deliverance, and comfort. We pray for those who are seeking employment, wisdom, and guidance. We ask for Your intervention in their lives and that they may come to know Jesus as their personal Savior.
Finally, we rebuke any spirit of fear, anxiety, or despair that may be trying to take hold of those who submitted these requests. We stand on the promise of Romans 8:37-39, which says, "No, in all these things, we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
