Prayer for the Headlines for Wednesday, June 19th


Good Morning, God,

Lord, do we have to worry about another Cold War between the superpowers of Russia and the United States? It seems that Russia is supplying arms to the Syrian government,. while the United States has decided to supply the rebels battling against the Syrian government.

Lord, the United States firmly believes and has proof that the Syrian government has crossed the "red line" by using chemical weapons against its own people, even if they are rebelling against the government.

Some world leaders are putting pressure on the leader al-Assad to step down. The United Nations Security Council efforts are blocked by Russia and China… And the beat goes on, Lord, with more and more innocents losing their lives.

Heavenly Father, we pray for an end to the bloodshed in Syria. We pray for the safety of all concerned. We pray for the rights of the citizens, but also for the respect of the government. 

May all get what they want and need to live peaceably.

In Jesus' name, Amen.
