Dear Lord,
Thank You for strengthening us each day. May we always look to You as our stronghold.
We pray for Christians – and especially the children – who live in countries where faith costs the most. We earnestly pray that they will be able to stand strong and safe through the storm of persecution.
Thank You for Open Doors field workers who are able to provide them with Bibles, training and essential supplies.
We pray for those who persecute Christians, that they will see the witness of Your followers, and so discover Your love and forgiveness.
We pray for Open Doors in the UK: the staff, volunteers and supporters. Thank You for their commitment to serving You. Please strengthen them with the wisdom and energy they need to support persecuted Christians through campaigning, giving and prayer. 
We thank You for supplying all our needs. Enlarge our vision, as we stand shoulder to shoulder with our brothers and sisters in Christ. May we be a supportive family to them.
Hear us, Lord, and have mercy on them for power and strength belong to You, our God, forever and ever!
Amen
