Father, in the name of Jesus, I pray for every listener wherever they are around the world. And Lord, I want to bring before you every heart that is with me now. But Lord, as you prepare each and every one of us for the day, for the evening, for the mid-morning, whatever our time zone is, Lord, I want to invite the listeners to pray with me for our brothers and sisters within the world of the persecuted church. Will you join me to pray today? Will you join me wherever you are around this beautiful world, whatever your life is reflecting? We're going to pray for our beautiful brothers, our beautiful sisters that are
coming under attack because of the gospel of Jesus Christ. So, Father, right here in London, England, from London to Israel, from Israel to South Korea, from South Korea to the Netherlands, from Netherlands to Libya, Hong Kong, Bangladesh, Bolivia, United Aberates Emirates, Spirit of the Living God, the Philippines. Lord, we need Jesus in our lives. We need the Holy Spirit. And as we come before you, we bring our brothers and sisters, Lord God, where their faith is under fire. And we ask you, dear God, as we continue to pray for their lives, Lord, we remember those in chains. We remember those, dear God, that are under house arrest. We remember those, dear God, that are running for their lives. Strengthen the persecuted church now in the mighty name of Jesus. Lord, the church in North Korea, the church in Somalia, the church in Yemen, the church in Nigeria, and many other areas around the world.
Father, touch the listeners now and wherever they are as we lock shields of faith from the battlefield of life to the boardroom of life to the every area of life. Father, we bring nations that are facing violence and hostility. Those Christians that are running because of the surveillance over them. The imprisonment, Lord, the daily dangers that go on cover pastors' families and those that are gathering, dear God, secretly. Let the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit give them courage and let them rise in the name of Jesus. Lord, we focus on those that are in prison for their faith and let the gospel advance, dear God, even in the hardest places around the world. Lord, we need you in our life. We need you every area of life, and we believe in miracles. And right now, Lord, as we come to you as brothers and sisters here within the West and wherever we are listening to the sound of my voice, we are praying for protection, we're praying for love, and we're praying for the power of the Holy Spirit. Lord, let the word of God break every barrier down. Father, capture every bomb, capture
every bullet, every arrow that is fired right now. Spirit of the living God, we pray for those that are running for their lives, those that are in war-torn nations. But dear God, we believe that North Korea belongs to Jesus. We believe that Somalia belongs to Jesus. We believe that the Yemen belongs to Jesus. We believe that Nigeria belongs to Jesus. We believe that these nations belong to the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. And we pray that the word of God, we pray that Bibles will get through borders. We pray that the hand of God will be with the sisters and the brothers, those that are lifting up the name of Jesus in secret, those that are worshiping behind prison doors, the prisoners of faith, those dear God that are running for their lives. Father, protect and heal and make a way for the persecuted Christian wherever they are, worshiping in secret, worshiping in quietness, and Lord, let the hand of God be over each and every one of them in Jesus' name.
