Prayer for the defenseless

We all have problems to deal with. Some much more than others. But what about those around us? What about the weak and the helpless? There are so many victims out there. Do we wait for God to act while we do nothing?

Maybe God wants to act through you. Maybe he wants to make a difference through your life. This gives you meaning and purpose.

Open yourself up to give. Show the glory of the Lord by your good works. Be Christ in this fallen world, and watch the heavens open up before you.

Text image of Prayer for the defenseless which calls us to prayer for victims of suffering

Give justice to the weak and the fatherless;
maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute.
Rescue the weak and the needy;
deliver them from the hand of the wicked.”

Psalm 82:3-4

Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see thee hungry and feed thee, or thirsty and give thee drink? And when did we see thee a stranger and welcome thee, or naked and clothe thee? And when did we see thee sick or in prison and visit thee?’ And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me.’ 

Matthew 25:37-40

“You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hid. Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a bushel, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.

Matthew 5:14-16
