Heavenly Father, Prince of Peace,
We come before You today with a heavy yet hopeful heart. We look around at the nations, the conflicts, the unrest, and the suffering—and we know this world is groaning. But we also know that You are still on the throne.
Lord, we cry out for peace—Your peace. Not as the world gives, but the kind that surpasses all understanding. Let it fall like rain on every land, from war-torn regions to divided cities. Bring peace to homes where violence reigns, to nations on the brink of collapse, to hearts wracked with fear.
We lift up the leaders of the world. Father, we ask that You raise up righteous leaders—men and women who seek Your will above their own. Turn their hearts from corruption, pride, and oppression. Grant wisdom to presidents, prime ministers, kings, and legislators. Teach them to lead with justice and mercy.
We pray for the oppressed, the refugees, the persecuted, the forgotten. We remember the homeless, the hungry, the displaced. Let Your arms stretch wide across every continent. Let Your church arise—not in silence, but in compassion and action.
Use us, O God. Use our voices, our resources, our time, and our prayers. Help us to be peacemakers and bridge builders in a divided world.
We declare Isaiah 2:4 over the earth: "They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore."
Bring revival to the world, Lord—not just in church buildings, but in hearts, in homes, in streets, and in systems. Let Your Kingdom come, and Your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.
In the mighty name of Jesus,
Amen.
