Here is a prayer guide for you to use in your Prayer for Peace this week.

We will be praying for those in power

—————————————————————————————————–

Who are the decision makers that can impact the story to bring peace? Pray for mercy, compassion and wisdom as they deal with the situation, and pray that they would be governed by love and the desire for peace instead of hatred and fear.

For politicians, both for the leaders in the nations that are directly affected by the conflict and for the leaders of nations who can affect the outcome.

For peacemakers working to bring resolution between forces.

For the powerful businesses and stakeholders who have the ability to change the course of the conflict.

For the media, both the journalists risking their lives to report on the situation and the media companies that are choosing what wars and conflicts to cover.
