Lord,
In this time of oppression, let us turn to you for freedom from the ties that bind our hearts and minds to hypnotic servitude.
In this age of engineered discouragement, give us joy in your endless love for us.
In this age of fear, give us the courage of those who know that they are loved by an all powerful father.
In this age of deception and hatred, let us speak the truth in love.
In this time where those in power shirk responsibility for the damage that they have done, give us the gift of repentance so that we effortlessly make course corrections, confess our wrongdoing, clean up our own messes, and lift burdens off of those we have harmed.
Give the gift of repentance to the power abusers that we are calling out. Let their hubris and hardness of heart be a cautionary lesson to us to do justice, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with our God.
Let us learn to wield our own power with wisdom, restraint, and love for the most vulnerable among us.
We praise you, that you have "not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love and a sound mind."
Let us be the voice of truth, the protector of the weak, and the healing hands of Christ.
In Jesus Name,
Amen
