2 Corinthians 12 : 9 — Faith Under Fire: Prayer for the Persecuted, Secret & Underground Church in Jesus Christ

9 A.M. Release — Recorded live here in London, England — from London to Lahore, from Lahore to Cairo, from Cairo to Nairobi — as the morning sun rises, hidden believers lift whispered prayers that shake the nations.

Scripture (NIV)

“But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.” — 2 Corinthians 12 : 9 (NIV)

Show Notes

Across closed borders, faith burns quietly but brightly. Thousands search “prayer for the persecuted church,” “Christians in danger,” and “grace under pressure.” This verse is their anthem. In weakness, the strength of Jesus Christ is revealed.

From London to Lahore, Cairo to Nairobi, we remember those who meet in secret — the underground church, the whispering believers who risk everything to say His Name. They gather in silence but worship in power. The grace of Jesus Christ covers their fear, heals their wounds, and gives courage to stand where the world says “hide.”

This morning we pray for endurance, safety, and spiritual fire for every hidden believer. May the whisper of faith echo louder than any persecution.

I need to tell you Saint Hells that you are loved. God sees your tears, God sees your pain. He is with you right in this moment in time. And God has your life in the palm of his hand. And don't give up. There is a new dawn breaking in your life. There is a new beginning. So will you lock shields with me today? Come on, will you stand with me today? We're going to pray for a nation that is in need of prayer very, very soon. But also amongst all this, we're going to pray for our brothers and sisters in the secret church, the underground church of Jesus Christ. Will you lock with me today? Will you lock in with me today? Come on, let's go. This is faith under fire. We're praying for the persecuted church, the secret and the underground church. Father, we believe, dear God, in 2 Corinthians chapter 12, verse 9. Lord, as we read this out, Father, but he said to me, My grace is sufficient for you. My power is made perfect in weakness. Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ may rest upon me. Lord, I thank you that your power is on us. So Lord, wherever we are, Lord, wherever our lives look like, whatever our lives reflect, Lord, we are praying for the whispering church. We are praying, dear God, for faith under fire. Lord, we pray as faith burns quietly but brightly. Father, we pray then we ask, dear God, that there will be access to all borders. Lord, across every closed border, we believe the word of God is getting in. Lord, as thousands of us pray right now, we're praying for the persecuted church, Christians in danger, grace under pressure. Lord, give us grace under pressure. Lord, help those Christians that are in danger. We are praying for the persecuted church. Father, we believe in the word of God. And right now, wherever we are, from Cairo all the way, dear God, to Egypt, from Egypt, dear God, to the Valley of the Kings, right the way through Egypt, right the way through East Dan Ball, all the way, dear God, through Nigeria. Lord God, bless South Korea today. But Lord, move through London, New York, and so many other places around the world. But Lord, today, we're praying for the pastors that are under lock and key for the gospel of Jesus Christ. We're praying for the hidden churches. We're praying for the families that they will get comfort as their lives are being threatened. We pray for the persecuted church. We ask you, Father, that the persecuted church, Lord God, will rise in the name of Jesus. We pray, dear God, for the missionaries, the pastors, the leaders. We ask you, Father God, that the church of Jesus Christ will rise amidst persecution. We pray for safety and endurance today. Lord, spiritual fire that's coming at them. Father, we believe that the echo of the word of God, Lord, we believe that the Holy Spirit is with every persecuted believer now around the world. For those, dear God, that are under uh the key, dear God, for living their lives in Jesus Christ across the borders of nations where they can't talk about Jesus. We pray, dear God, for prisoners of faith today. We pray for the secret church. We pray for the underground church, the church that is gathering right now in silent and stillness. Father, we thank you that that church is growing. We pray for the secret believers in Jesus Christ. We pray for strength and grace under persecution. We're praying for breakthrough where the gospel, Father, is taking pastors and missionaries into the enemy's territory. Lift up the persecuted church right now. Let your grace be over them. So, Lord, right now we want to tell the world grace is not the absence of pain, it is the power of Jesus Christ to shine through. Lord, we want to declare that we stand with the persecuted church. The grace of Jesus Christ, Lord, we ask you that you will give the church grace to stand, faith under fire. So, Lord, strengthen the brothers and sisters that are gathering in secret, that are, dear God, locked down because their faith is under fire. Come, Holy Spirit, bless the whispering church. Let your glory be with them right now. Bless the families of the martyrs. Holy Spirit, be with the secret church and the underground church in Jesus' name. My name's Reverend Ben Cooper. Until tomorrow.
