“‘You shall do no injustice in judgment. You shall not be partial to the poor, nor show favoritism to the great; but you shall judge your neighbor in righteousness.

Leviticus 19:15 World English Bible

Reflection

Courtrooms handle issues that directly affect how individuals and communities live out their faith. When judges interpret constitutional guarantees, their decisions set boundaries for religious expression, conscience, and assembly. Ask God to grant members of the judiciary deep wisdom, fairness, and insight into fundamental freedoms. May rulings uphold constitutional protections with impartiality, safeguarding the liberty of believers to practice their convictions without fear.

Prayer

Pray that the judge clearly acknowledges and upholds the Charter rights protecting freedom of religion and belief.
