VERSE:
O righteous God, who searches minds and hearts, bring to an end
the violence of the wicked and make the righteous secure.
-- Psalm 7:9
http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=Psalm+7:9
THOUGHT:
In a world of organized crime, gangs, and predators, we have
some real work cut out for us if we are going to influence the
violent part of contemporary culture to change its ways. Maybe the
place to start is down on our knees before the Father, asking him
to use us to make a difference in our violent world!
PRAYER:
Loving Lord and Father of all peoples, please forgive us for
anything we have done to condone or accept the violence that is
entrenched in many parts of our world today. Please bring the evil
and hostile trend towards violence to an end. Frustrate and defeat
those who use violence. May your people be an example of
productive, compassionate, and non-violent living. Please give
strength and protection to all who face the threat of violence
because of their faith. In Jesus' name. Amen.
