Let’s PRAY!
‘And falling to his knees he cried out with a loud voice, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” And when he said this, he fell asleep.’ Acts 7: 60
LORD our gracious, merciful and just God of all, we thank You for Your word that continues to show us Your heart for all that You have made including humanity in all our fallen ways. Holy God we remember here how our forefather Stephen was stoned to death, the first martyr of the church. We hear and see numerous and increasing injustice to Christians in our day, and we declare our eyes are on You to deliver. Lord open the eyes of those who persecute us, but ultimately are choosing to reject you. Help them understand the truth, be reconciled to You while You may be found. We realize principalities are at work through those deceived. But we ask to be ready as Stephen was and to deliver from darkness those that can be saved. Jesus in Your Name above all. AMEN
