Slavery


Day 30 of 30 days of prayer for the voiceless, and the topic is slavery.

Lord, please help each one of us to feel in our own hearts, minds, bodies and spirits what it must be like to be a slave, and so to know your burning desire that all humans beings should be free. Jesus said, "If the Son sets you free, you shall be free indeed." I thank you for Jesus, our redeemer and liberator, and pray that you will help us all to end slavery in my lifetime.

Father, I know that this means we need more William Wilberforces and Caroline Coxes, and I pray that you would raise them up in every nation, and draw around them the support they need.
