It’s estimated that 1.2 million children are trafficked each year.
When we read social injustice statistics like this we can be left feeling powerless to make a difference. Instead, let’s turn to our Father in heaven who hears our prayers and can do immeasurably more than we can even imagine.
On World Day of Social Justice, let’s be bold as we share a prayer for injustice around the world.
Heavenly Father, you to teach us to seek justice, to defend the oppressed and take up the cause of the fatherless and the plea of the widow.
We ask that when the scale of injustice seeks to overwhelm us, your spirit will be the encouragement we need to keep to speaking out against it.
Today, we ask for breakthrough for those facing situations of injustice. May they know a sense of hope that only you can bring. Amen
