“But I say to you who hear, love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you”
~ Luke 6:27-28
When we see legal injustices all over the country being committed by the people who have been entrusted to protect us… the first thing we must do is pray for them.
When a government who we look to and expect to protect the commonwealth turns it’s back on the disenfranchised while lining the coffers of the rich …the first thing we must do is pray for them.
When we witness so-called religious leaders who are unable to stand on the God given Word… those who can stand only on their titles and offices given by man; those who use these offices and titles to abuse God’s children because they see the church as a power play to heap unnecessary burdens on the Body of Christ… …THE VERY FIRST THING WE MUST DO is pray for them.
As much as our flesh wants to hate them… we can’t give anger and hatred an opening or foothold, We must forego such feelings. We must find ourselves at the Throne of mercy asking our Lord to lend an ear. AND not that these we pray for be punished, but that their hearts be enlightened and that the heart of stone be replaced with a heart of flesh. God is Omnipotent, Omnipresent and Omniscient ,,,, HE DOES NOT MISS A THING!
