Project 35: Pray for the Persecuted Church

Each Monday, we share a project that relates to being a Christian woman and living out our Titus 2 roles in real life. For more information about this feature or to submit a project idea, click here.

This week’s project is:

to pray for the persecuted church.

Right now around the world there are millions of believers forced to meet in secret locations to worship. They must hide their faith or many things may happen to them, including being tortured or put to death.

This week let’s pray for our brothers and sisters around the world living in this reality. You will find great resources for your prayers here, including a printable world prayer map.

Find out more at persecution.com or Release International.

Are you going to complete this week’s challenge? If so, add a link to your blog below:

Lord, there are believers living all around the world today who are facing persecution due to their faith in You. Lord, keep them and protect. Allow them to remain strong in their faith and trust You with their life.  I pray that even in the face of persecution that they would experience Your love, grace, mercy, and peace. I pray that we would take our faith as seriously as they do, even in the face of opposition. Amen.

    I too know what it feels like to be persecuted for my beliefs. It’s very sad. Everyone should have the freedom to worship what they believe to be true without persecution.
    Blessings to you!
