Dear God,
I come before you in humility and reverence, recognizing that you are a God of justice and righteousness. You have called us to seek justice and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with you.
Lord, I acknowledge that there are many injustices in the world that grieve your heart. I pray that you would give me a heart that is sensitive to the needs of others, and a willingness to stand up for what is right and just.
Help me to be a voice for the voiceless, to speak out against oppression and to work towards creating a more just and equitable society. Give me the courage to stand up against injustice, even when it is difficult or unpopular.
May my actions and my words reflect your love and your compassion for all people. Help me to be a beacon of light in a world that is often dark and unjust.
Lord, as I seek to live out Amos 5:24 in my own life, I pray that you would guide me and empower me to be a force for good in the world. May your justice and righteousness flow like a mighty river, bringing healing and restoration to all those who are in need.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
