Weekly Prayer - August 25 - August 31, 2024

Holy Father God, You are the ultimate judge of all hearts, and You desire righteous judgments and decisions to be rendered on the earth. Therefore we pray that Your will would be done here in America with regard to our Judicial system and those involved in positions of the Judicial Branch.

Come and place righteous men and women in positions of decision. Raise up people with hearts that long for true biblical justice and righteousness to take these seats.

We pray that current and future judges in America will fear and honor You, first and foremost, that they would clearly recognize that they will be judged and held accountable for their actions and decisions when they stand before you.

We also pray that You would give them divine wisdom and revelation as they hand down decisions, that they might more fully understand the long term implications of such rulings and their decisions will be interpreted later.

Work in their lives, minds, hearts and souls to have the perfect blend of caution and boldness, boldness to stand for what is good and right and just, and caution to not overstep bounds You have set for them.

Give judges wise and good counselors to guide them, and may they be guided directly by Your Holy Spirit. Give them hearts sensitive to listen to Your guidance, especially when they don’t know what call to make.

Remove corruption from our courts and benches in America. Expose bribery at every level that perverts justice.

We pray for the repentance and/or removal of unjust and unrighteous judges who refuse to do what is right in Your sight, who make decisions based on selfish ambition or fear rather than based on justice.

Come, LORD, draw near to us and reestablish justice in the earth, here in our land.

In Jesus’ Name we pray. Amen.
