Prayer point
Pray for courage and conviction to confront injustice
Pray for Government
Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin; but I come to you in the name of Yahweh of Armies, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.
1 Samuel 17:45 World English Bible
Reflection
Standing up to systemic wrongs requires bold moral resolve rather than comfortable indifference. When injustice burdens vulnerable neighbours, remaining silent is rarely a neutral choice. Ask God to grant citizens and decision-makers steadfast bravery to address ongoing unfairness. Pray for clear integrity, wisdom, and compassion to protect those facing hardship, ensuring fairness and honour guide every effort to uphold righteousness.
Prayer
Pray that we be like David, who, with courage and conviction, did not stand by while the giant of injustice threatened God's people.
