Make us a praying people (Sat 28th Oct)

The Lord looked and was displeased
that there was no justice
He saw there was no-one to intervene
So His own arm worked
salvation for Him
and His own righteousness sustained Him

He put on righteousness as His breastplate
And the helmet of salvation on His head
(Isaiah 59:15-17)

Lord make us instruments of Your peace
Where there is injustice make us champion for right

Where there is silence let us speak up in Your name

May You never again find no-one to stand in the gap for the weak, opressed and those cast-aside

Lord, make us a praying people
Help us put on the armour of God and stand with you in battle.

Amen
