Prayers for Courts and Tribunals.
Biblical Text:
“Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.” Proverbs 14:34
“You shall appoint judges and officers in all your towns that the Lord your God is giving you, according to your tribes, and they shall judge the people with righteous judgment. You shall not pervert justice. You shall not show partiality, and you shall not accept a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and subverts the cause of the righteous. Justice, and only justice, you shall follow, that you may live and inherit the land that the Lord your God is giving you.” Deuteronomy 16:18-20
“For he is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God’s wrath on the wrongdoer.” Romans 13:4
Insight:
Our God is a just God. Being in heaven, He has chosen to establish His justice on earth or within a nation by appointing magistrates over His people. The decision of the magistrate represents God’s decision. But if it does not align with God’s will, then the magistrate fulfills the will of Satan. The hearts of magistrates must be entrusted to God so that God’s will is revealed to them through their decisions.
Prayer Topics:
