If you live on this planet, you know that injustice is real. Our responsibility is to contend for justice and this prayer, crafted from Psalm 58, does just that. It gives us the words for intercession that lay out our petition for the eradication of injustice. If this prayer ministers to you, share it with your friends and post it to your social media platforms. 

Prayer

Lord, destroy injustice! Crack down on the criminals! Wipe out the gang leaders. Annihilate oppressive governmental leaders. Destroy every system of injustice that prevents prosperity and blessing for the righteous. Vindicate the righteous! Show the world that their dedication and sacrifices are worth it. Lord, let the righteous reign in the land for the glory of the Father in Jesus name, amen.

Psalms 58:1-11

Do you rulers indeed speak justly? Do you judge people with equity? No, in your heart you devise injustice, and your hands mete out violence on the earth. Even from birth the wicked go astray; from the womb they are wayward, spreading lies. Their venom is like the venom of a snake, like that of a cobra that has stopped its ears, that will not heed the tune of the charmer, however skillful the enchanter may be.

Break the teeth in their mouths, O God; Lord, tear out the fangs of those lions! Let them vanish like water that flows away; when they draw the bow, let their arrows fall short. May they be like a slug that melts away as it moves along, like a stillborn child that never sees the sun. Before your pots can feel the heat of the thorns— whether they be green or dry—the wicked will be swept away.

The righteous will be glad when they are avenged, when they dip their feet in the blood of the wicked. Then people will say, “Surely the righteous still are rewarded; surely there is a God who judges the earth.”
