Heavenly Father,

You are our steadfast protector and wise counselor, whose loving guidance never leads us astray. Your faithfulness and justice fill the earth, and Your plans stand firm across all generations. We celebrate Your mighty power and the perfect truth of Your word.

We come before You today on behalf of Shelby County, Tennessee, seeking Your blessing and protection over our community. May Your presence be a constant source of safety and peace, shielding us from harm and guiding our paths.

We ask You to instill in us a spirit of unity and cooperation, that we may work together to create a thriving community. Help us to rely on Your strength and wisdom, rather than our own, and to trust in Your sovereign will for our lives and our land.

May Your love inspire us to act justly and to serve one another with compassion. Protect us from the influences that lead to discord and lawlessness, and let Your peace rule in our hearts and our streets.

We are grateful for Your watchful eye and Your hand of mercy that keeps us in times of trouble. Let us find joy in Your presence and strength in Your promises as we live each day committed to Your ways.

We place our hope in You alone, Lord, and in the power of Your holy name. May we live as a testimony to Your grace and goodness.

In the precious name of Christ Jesus, we pray.

Amen.
