Prayer Inspired by Psalm 15
Heavenly Father,
You are holy and righteous, setting the standard for integrity and justice. Your love for truth and fairness guides us, and Your protection of the innocent inspires us. You call us to live blamelessly, to speak truthfully, and to act justly in all our dealings.
We come before You today on behalf of Shelby County, Tennessee, asking You to infuse our community with Your spirit of righteousness. Empower us to lead lives that reflect Your holiness, where truth is spoken from sincere hearts and actions are guided by Your just principles.
Help us, Lord, to uphold justice and to protect the vulnerable among us. Strengthen our resolve to reject gossip, deceit, and all forms of corruption. May our leaders and citizens alike embrace fairness, reject bribes, and stand firm against exploitation, creating a society where the innocent are defended and the oppressed are supported.
Guide us to be faithful stewards of the responsibilities You have entrusted to us, maintaining our promises even when it is challenging. Let Your presence in our lives bring stability and peace, encouraging us to persevere in righteousness.
We trust in Your unfailing love and pray for Your blessings to prosper our community. May Shelby County be a place where Your will is done, and Your name is glorified through our actions and interactions.
In the name of Christ Jesus, we pray.
Amen.
