Week of May 16

Father God, we stand on Your promise that You will deliver the needy and the poor. As servants of the King, help us, Lord, as we strive to help the suffering poor. We acknowledge that without You, we are nothing and can do nothing without Your mercy and Your grace. Hear us O God; hear the cries of the poor; make haste and answer the prayers of Your children, in Jesus’ name.

Amen.

“For He will deliver the needy when he cries, the poor also, and him who has no helper. He will spare the poor and needy and will save the souls of the needy.”

(Psalm 72:12-13 (NKJ)
