Prayer For The Least

If Jesus were still in the flesh, He would be hanging out with sinners, or what many of us consider low life. We would find Him in the prisons, bars, drug dens, or hanging on the corner with the prostitutes, the homeless, and drunks.  Not sitting in the Church with us, He would be seeking lost souls to save. The Word tells us “that “it is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance” (Mark 2:17).   (Hebrew 13:2) Says “Do not neglect to show hospitality to anyone, for some have entertained angels without knowing it.  Remember, whatever we do for the least of our brothers and sisters, we do for Christ, thus said the Lord.


Lord, You have lived in the flesh and understand our struggles, especially those that live on the streets and those who are falsely incarcerated, because You were falsely in poisoned as well.  Lord, serve justice for those who have been wronged and release them. Lord, but those who have sinned against others, let them experience genuine remorse for the harm they have caused to their victims and seek to make amends.  Lord help us deal with all people respectfully no matter what their situation is because anyone can fall on hard times.  Lord help those in lock-up respect the authority of the prison staff and give us strength to control our tempers when dealing with law enforcement.   Lord, I pray that all prisoners, prostitutes, homeless, alcoholics, and drug dealer grow in godly attributes and be committed to keeping in touch with their families.  Lord surround the least of Your people with Spiritual Soldiers to support and encourage them so others cannot prey on their weakness.  Father give the least of them protection and assist them in staying away from bad associations that will lead them astray. Lord take their desire for alcohol, drugs, the love of money and other types of contraband or crimes that caused them to fall.  Father, keep the young and the weak safe from sexual assault and other forms of victimization on the streets and in prison.  Lord, give them wisdom and knowledge to take advantage of programs to enhance their educational and vocational skills and seek the resources they need in prison and society to help better themselves.  In Jesus name hear our prayer Amen
