Almighty God,
We come to You on behalf of our brothers and sisters in China. We pray for an overflowing of Your Spirit from within them – that they would have great joy, boldness, and peace as they follow You. Provide miraculously for any needs they have as a result of persecution. Protect Your people, O God, and do not let the enemy have a foothold. Destroy the enemy’s work in this country. May it be known in China that YOU reign and are sovereign.
I also pray for the Chinese police, justice system and jail guards – that they might be saved from the testimony of Your faithful followers and be enabled to assist others being held for their faith.
We praise You in advance for what You will do.
In Jesus’ powerful and unconquerable name, Amen
