Jesus will judge us for our loving acts towards the least among us who so wholly represent His oft-despised presence on Earth. Please pray for prisoners and their families, friends, enemies, and victims. The judicial system in some areas and various prison systems are so corrupt as to induce despair instead of reform; and temptations are sometimes more available on the inside than out. Will you please pray for my brother, who was killed by corrupt prison officials while acting as the (honest) head of a state prison system? Will you pray for the man falsely imprisoned for his murder? I am moved to pray for my brother when, as on the Epiphany, I hear his favorite Christmas song, “We Three Kings.” Will you pray for the prisoners he had such great plans and high hopes for? Will you most especially pray for an ardent Christian revival in a Missouri prison, Central State Corrections Center in Licking, MO? These men have a growing “prayer scroll” with their hand-written intentions, and co-prayer is spreading across the country and bringing miracles and enlivening faith.
May I further note we have here in Missouri a once-respected prosecutor-turned-representative who had apparently furthered his career by working in concert with corrupt law enforcement to fast track the innocent to prison? This is replayed across the country too often. Some of the unimaginable schemes in my brother’s state prison system included escorting prisoners out to do murders-for-hire without signing them out so they had a perfect alibi; and officials providing so many drugs to prisoners my brother had to send parolees to rehab before their release. They killed him and hunted for the “usual suspects” and convicted an innocent man. Pray for God’s justice and mercy.
Lord of Righteousness, hear our cries for justice and bring Your mercy; and bring healing of victims and victimizers. For those adamantly hardened in sin, please neutralize them as you did in sending Gideon to prompt the outnumbering enemy to destroy themselves. Grant us Christ’s perfect peace and healing of hearts and minds, bodies and souls, all for God’s honor and glory, and receive us into Heaven for all eternity. Thanks. AMEN
**Our Father, Who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom, come. Thy will, be done on Earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. AMEN **
