Let's come together in prayer for this situation, trusting in the power of Jesus' name. Although we are not given the details about the parole situation, let us not forget that the Bible teaches us to obey all authorities.
Romans 13:1 (WEB): "Let every soul be in subjection to the higher authorities, for there is no authority except from God, and those who exist are ordained by God."
Romans 13:5 (WEB): "Therefore you need to be in subjection, not only because of the wrath, but also for conscience' sake."
We do not know if the crime was just or unjust, but we do know that the Bible says:
1 Peter 4:15 (WEB): "Let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil doer, or a meddler in other men's matters."
Therefore, we will pray for justice and for mercy. We will pray for the judge to have wisdom and discernment in this matter.
Let us pray:
Almighty God, we come before You today, lifting up this beloved ### and his current situation. We pray for Your intervention, that the judge may have mercy and wisdom in his decision. We ask, Lord, that if it is Your will, that this ### may not lose his job nor his parole.
However, if his crime was just and rightly deserved punishment, we pray that the ### will learn from this lesson, grow, and seek God's will for his life.
We also pray for this family, that You may comfort them and guide them through this trial. Help them to trust in You and Your plan for their lives and the life of their ###.
Lastly, Lord, we pray for salvation for this ### and this family if they do not already know Jesus Christ. We know that it is only by the name of Jesus that we can come to God for help.
Acts 4:12 (WEB): "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, through which we must be saved!"
In Jesus' name, we pray for mercy, wisdom, and salvation. Amen.
