Prayer based on Jeremiah 21

O Lord of Hosts, what shall we do when Your enemies persecute and kill the righteous. Many think of themselves as vastly superior to the humble. Yet who will help them with the pride that destroys their lives? Pity us. Spare us. Have compassion upon us. We will follow Your Son throughout our days among the city of men unto everlasting life. We will execute justice and mercy for the weak, as much as it is in our power to do what is good. Look beyond our sin, and gaze at the perfect righteousness of Your holy Son, Jesus, for He has destroyed death for us on the cross, and won eternal life for all who call upon Your Name.
