We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, grieved by the reports of injustice and perversion in the governance of ###. Father God, You are the righteous Judge of all the earth, and Your Word declares in Psalm 89:14, "Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne. Loving kindness and truth go before you." Yet we see leaders who claim the name of Christ acting in ways that contradict Your holy standards—persecuting the opposition, manipulating courts, and removing leaders through ungodly means. Lord, we rebuke this corruption in the name of Jesus, for You hate hands that shed innocent blood and a heart that devises wicked schemes (Proverbs 6:16-19).
We pray for Your divine intervention, that You would expose every hidden deed of darkness and bring it into the light. Let no injustice go unanswered, for You have promised in Proverbs 21:15, "It is joy to the righteous to do justice, but it is a destruction to the workers of iniquity." We ask that You would confound the plans of those who misuse their authority, that their schemes would collapse under the weight of their own unrighteousness. Raise up godly leaders who will govern with integrity, fearing You rather than man.
Father, we also lift up the people of ###, that they would not grow weary in doing good, even in the face of oppression. Strengthen their faith, that they may trust in You as their ultimate Deliverer. Remind them that vengeance belongs to You alone (Romans 12:19), and that You will repay those who persist in wickedness. We pray for repentance—both for the leaders who have strayed from Your ways and for the nation as a whole, that ### would turn back to You in humility and truth.
We declare that no weapon formed against Your people will prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we stand in the gap, praying for Your justice to prevail. May Your kingdom come and Your will be done in ### as it is in heaven. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
