-          Continue prayer for peace between Russia and Ukraine.

Give the leaders wisdom and let them make the best decisions for their countries and the people they serve. May they work together to end this war, “Europe’s bloodiest conflict since World War II.” It is estimated that over one million people have been killed or injured, let this end soon.

Psalm 34:14-16 – “Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it. The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are attentive to their cry; but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil to blot out their name from the earth.”

-          Pray for the Slavic Gospel Association (SGA).

Pray for the SGA as they fight to keep orphaned teenagers from prostitution, slavery, organized crime and suicide in war-torn Ukraine, Russia, and other post-Soviet nations. The association’s mission is to show orphans they are loved and that there is hope. As they work with teens, they find themselves competing with orphans being trained by gang members where young men are taught martial arts and girls are being groomed for sex trafficking. The SGA is in a race against evil, pray for them and their mission to save teens.

Exodus 22:22,23 – “Do not take advantage of the widow or the fatherless. If you do and they cry out to me, I will certainly hear their cry.”

James 1:27 – “Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.”

-          Pray for abortions to end everywhere.

As legislation shifts, making new rules and laws, only to have them overturned or changed regarding abortion, pray for hearts to change and that no one would desire to have or perform abortions. Bring healing to all who have had abortions and those who have participated in performing abortions and let them come to value life. Let each new life, formed by God, have the chance to live out the future God has planned for them.

Psalm 139:14-16 – “I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful; I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.”

  -          Continue to pray for abortion to end everywhere. Continue to pray for Israel.
