20 Scriptures that Teach Us How to Pray for Justice
Download this guide to lead you as you pray for God’s justice on the earth
In this world where there is discrimination of all kinds, unfair labor laws, and racial and economic injustices, we long for Biblical justice. As Christians, our hearts long to see the justice that God intended for all people. When God created humans in his image, he wanted all humans to be treated with fairness and justice. Sadly, this isn’t always what we see today.
But God is still a God of justice.
His kingdom is founded on righteousness and justice, Psalm 89:14. Therefore, he will not stop until those who are unrightfully hurt or wronged are restored. And he invites us to do the same. He invites us to pray bold prayers that establish his justice in the world.
That’s why we created a prayer guide entitled, 20 Scriptures that Teach Us How to Pray for Justice . Use this guide to mediate on God’s justice vs. man’s justice and to lead you as you lean into God for wisdom on how you can respond to injustice.
