We stand in prayer with the women (and men) of Iran who seek a life of fulfilment and freedom. A prayer for Iran partly taken from our partner Heart4Iran:
Dear Lord,
we lift the people of Iran up to you, especially the women who are striving for freedom against oppressive rules. We pray for their strength, courage, and resilience in the face of adversity. We ask that You protect them and guide them as they navigate this challenging journey.
We pray for the dawn of freedom to break in its full brilliance across this beautiful land. Lord, guide us as we stand with our brothers and sisters who long to be free, just as we do in our own countries.
Just as Your son Jesus Christ broke the chains of death, we humbly request Your intervention to break the chains of oppression. Let hope shine brightly in the hearts of the Iranian people, and give them a future filled with peace, justice, and freedom. May Your love pierce the darkness, illuminating the path to freedom. May Your peace calm the turbulences. May Your grace bring about transformation.
Father, we ask that you extend this inalienable right of freedom to our Iranian friends. Give them courage and resilience, empowering them to claim the blessings of liberty.
In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
