Lord, today
we pray for India, where our brothers and sisters in Christ are facing fierce
persecution from radical Hindus. Lord, we are distraught that the current
government has allowed radical Hinduism to increase through the lack of
consequences for those who commit violent crimes against Christian. The violence
is mushrooming because of this silent assent! Lord, we particularly pray today
for our brothers and sisters who have left Hinduism to pursue you. May their
families and friends love them for who they are and not view their choice as
treason or betrayal. Protect these disciples and give them courage. Lord, we
also pray for the Protestant Christian communities that are persecuted due to
their faith and outreach. Strengthen and guide them. Shore up their courage,
wisdom and grace. Lord, we pray for the Indian government—for the kind of
wisdom that generates excellent leadership and care for those they lead. May
India become a beacon of freedom, rather than a nation where people fear to
worship the one true God. In Jesus’ name we pray, amen.
