Day 6 – Corruption
‘He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to what is false and does not swear deceitfully. He will receive blessing from the Lord and righteousness from the God of his salvation.’ – Psalm 24:4-5
In the most vulnerable communities and countries across Africa, corruption is still rampant across all layers of society, creating greater vulnerability and desperation for the most vulnerable and their families. This makes the margin between the poorest of the poor and the wealthy increasingly wide. Ask God to speak into the hearts of those who are causing this hurt and injustice. Pray for the church to defend the most vulnerable and for people in positions of influence to speak on their behalf, and hold the leadership to a high level of accountability. Ask God to give His people a spirit of boldness, unity and hope in the midst of the oppression that they experience.
