The Light Daily Devotional – The Peace of a Great Nation
Focus: The Peace of a Great Nation
WORD FOR TODAY
No nation can be great or live up to its potential if it lacks peace. We must continue to pray for the peace of our nation because our prosperity depends on it!
Scriptural Reference
“Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May they prosper who love you. Peace be within your walls, Prosperity within your palaces. For the sake of my brethren and companions, I will now say, “Peace be within you.” Psalm 122:6-8 NKJV
The greatest conspiracy against our prosperity is the obstruction of the peace of the land. We have an obligation to pray for the peace of our land to ensure prosperity in all ramifications of life. The recent happenings in the land is a strong indication that the land is sick and requires divine intervention.
At this junction, we need to beg God to do for us what we cannot do. We need to pray that God should deliver us from the stronghold of bad leaders, bandits, terrorism and corruption at all levels of human endeavour. The Lord must help us and implant in the heart of every citizen the fear of God.
You must not keep quiet at this point nor be lackadaisical about what is happening in the nation. You will only dwell safely, serve God peacefully, pursue your dreams and fulfil your mandate if and only if there is peace in the land!
+ Do you desire the peace of the land?
Prayer: Lord! Be gracious to us in your mercy and turn the situation of our nation around; let there be peace in Jesus name. Amen!
Emphasis:
You desire prosperity each time you desire the peace of the land!
Have a Peaceful Month Ahead!
