Amos 5: 11-15
So those who are smart keep their mouths shut, for it is an evil time. Do what is good and run from evil so that you may live! Then the Lord God of Heaven's Armies will be your Helper, just as you have claimed. Hate evil and love what is good; turn your courts into true halls of justice. Perhaps even yet the Lord God of Heaven's Armies will have mercy on the remnant of His people.
O my Father, I thank You for Your great faithfulness to Your Word and Your ways. You never change. You reward obedience and right living and You punish evil. Help us, Lord, in our Nations; forgive us, have mercy on us and send us righteous judges and governors and other high officials, to make our courts true halls of justice, and to rule and lead us in Your righteousness according to Your very practical ways.
Teach our leaders how Your ways really do work, and how the misguided policies that failed in the past will still fail today. Surround those in power and position with Your godly children who will teach and advise them of Your good ways.
O Father, I know we deserve Your wrath, please forgive us and return us to Your righteousness before the end. That the World may know that You are Lord God Almighty.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
