Psalm 12
1 Help, Lord, for no one is faithful anymore;
those who are loyal have vanished from the human race.
2 Everyone lies to their neighbor;
they flatter with their lips
but harbor deception in their hearts.
3 May the Lord silence all flattering lips
and every boastful tongue—
4 those who say,
“By our tongues we will prevail;
our own lips will defend us—who is lord over us?”
5 “Because the poor are plundered and the needy groan,
I will now arise,” says the Lord.
“I will protect them from those who malign them.”
6 And the words of the Lord are flawless,
like silver purified in a crucible,
like gold[c] refined seven times.
7 You, Lord, will keep the needy safe
and will protect us forever from the wicked,
8 who freely strut about
when what is vile is honored by the human race.
Prayer
Lord in this beautiful land which You have blessed greatly, we need repentant hearts and that your people turn to you so that you will heal our Earth. Lead us Lord by your ways, and do not separate your Spirit from this people; who receive conviction of Sin and return to the Ancient Way. We ask this in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen
In the Holy Bible we read that we pray for every person who is in authority, and few are likely to do so.
Regardless of your political position or your faith, let's pray. Pray for all of us and especially for our leaders.
#####1 Timothy 2:2
God bless you
