Dear Lord,
We come to you today with our head bowed and our heart heavy because of the violent attacks happening to our sisters in the Congo. We are pleading their cause to an ungodly nation and asking that you deliver them from deceitful and unjust men. (Psalm 43:1)
Lord, we ask that you heal their bodies and souls and let them know that this is not their fault. Please sow up what the devil has ripped apart and let them find strength in you. Be not far from them, O Lord, because you are their strength, hasten to help them! (Psalm 22:19) Please remind them on a daily basis that you are a shield around them, their glory and the one who lifts their head up high. (Psalm 3:3)
Lord, we are laying this cause before you because your word says that you perform wonders that cannot be fathomed and miracles that cannot be counted. You have the power to set the lowly on high and lift those who mourn to safety. Please save these women from the swords in their bodies and from the clutches of the powerful. (Job 5:8-9, 11 & 15) We ask that you reveal your plan in these women's lives and give them a hope and a future that prospers their mind, body and soul! (Jeremiah 29:11)
Lord, we are also seeking your guidance as we do your work in this world. Please be a light to our path and a lamp to our feet as we take on this righteous cause so that we are at all times, honoring you, your word and your people. (Psalm 115:105) We pray for a heart of love, faith and hope so that we may save our sisters in the Congo.
We ask these blessings in Jesus's name, in expectation that it SHALL BE DONE to bring YOU all the glory Father! (John 14:12-14)
AMEN
The women and all those experiencing these hideous acts need our prayer and support.
