“Lord,
It’s your grace and love which fuels me.
This world is divided. We need more of your spirit. Help me to be more like you and less like the world around me.
The enemy wants me to focus on the differences in of others, but you’ve called me to focus on you.
Lord, I stand against fear, rage, offense, and retaliation. Instead, I choose love, forgiveness, and restoration.
If I choose to walk in darkness, how will I discover my divine destiny?
Let my feet be a trailblazer for your presence; to bring meek and gentle kindness in a world of loud hostility. Let my actions and words reflect your heart.
In the name of Jesus, we command the spirits of rage, hate, division, and racism to bow.
Lord, show this generation what your love looks like.
We bind the spirit of confusion swirling the atmosphere, making simple choices difficult.
You never promised a river of answers, but we praise you for your river of peace.
Let everything you’ve provided be good enough for we trust in your unfailing nature.
Rise up your army of love in an atmosphere that screams, “War! Hate!”
Give us your daily battle plans so we can defeat the enemy raging against us.
Protect our hearts and families as we choose to advance your kingdom. We move forward! Onward! Upward!
For the God of our salvation empowers us with strength, wisdom, and discernment. Our brother and sister of humanity is our comrade in this imperfect world.
Forgive us for appointing ourselves God when you alone have the wisdom to rule. Help us to remain focused on you and keep our hearts in tune with your’s. In Jesus’ name, amen.”
