“The Lord is in his holy temple; the Lord’s throne is in heaven; his eyes see, his eyelids test the children of man. The Lord tests the righteous, but his soul hates the wicked and the one who loves violence. For the Lord is righteous. He loves righteous deeds; the upright shall behold his face.” Psalm 11:4-5,7.Lord of Heaven and Earth, we are committed to you, but sometimes we are confused about what one person can do to stem the tide of decay we see in our society. Yet, we know that you are sovereign over all things from your throne in heaven. You see into the heart of every person.

From your testing of our motives comes the purifying work of your Spirit to awaken us to your holiness. Forgive us for becoming so accepting of the popular mindsets that are contrary to your revealed truth.

Bless this person who now prays with wisdom and strength to endure your testing which is always for the well-being of your children. We pray in Jesus Name.

Amen.
