IDOP - DAY 1: The Call to Pray for the Persecuted Church

Devotional: Today, we recognize the International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church. This is a special time set aside by the global church to come together as one unified body of Christ to pray for our brothers and sisters around the world who are facing persecution. As we reflect on this, let us remember that our purpose is to glorify Jesus in all that we do. Our prayers can make a significant impact on the lives of those who are suffering for their faith. Let us lift them up, asking God to give them strength, courage, and hope in the midst of their trials.
Bible Verse: Remember those in prison as if you were together with them in prison, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering. - Hebrews 13:3
