Lord, we continue to pray for the people of Ukraine. You love the dear people of Ukraine as much as You love the people in America, or Africa, or China. And, yes, You love the people of Russia equally as well. Jesus, Your shed blood gives all people spiritual freedom from the bondages of sin, and as much as Your love and mercy is extended to all mankind, people still choose evil over grace. And because people choose evil, the powers of darkness are behind their aggression. “Our battle is not against flesh-and-blood, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against the mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in heavenly places” (Ephesians 6:12). We pray Your divine intervention to stop these invaders and cause them to retreat in defeat. Cause good people everywhere to not lose faith, but to call upon Your Might to thwart the enemy’s plan. And like You destroyed the Egyptian army by driving them into the sea when they pursued Your people, drive these evil forces back from whence they came in utter defeat and humiliation, where they cannot rise again. Lord, You can turn what the devil meant for worldwide destruction and turn this mess into a worldwide revival of repentance. Bring people—friend and foe alike— to Your salvation, Jesus, that they choose Your grace. Let the world see and acknowledge there is a God in Heaven.
In Jesus’ authority, Amen
