Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our brothers and sisters in the African American community. Lord, we ask for Your divine protection over innocent men, women, and children who are being targeted and attacked with hate crimes. We pray that You shield them from the evil intentions of those who harbor bitterness and racism in their hearts.
Lord, Your Word says in Psalm 91:4, "He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart." We ask that You cover them with Your wings and be their refuge and shield. Protect them from harm and deliver them from those who seek to do them wrong.
Father, we pray for a miraculous intervention in 2024, that You would thwart the plans of those who aim to hurt or murder innocent black people. We ask that You bring justice and peace, and that Your love would overcome the hatred and evil in this world.
In Jesus' name, we pray for strength, courage, and protection for the African American community. May Your presence be felt among them, and may Your justice prevail. Amen.
