Morning Prayer for Today – I Pray For Peace 

Almighty God,

Thank You because You are a God of justice and peace.

Today I am praying for peace in my community and nation at large.

Your word says in Psalms 29:11:

The Lord will give strength to His people; the Lord will bless His people with peace.

Lord, please bless us with Your peace. Take away all forms of violence, crime and unrest.

Deliver us from the lies of the enemy that causes us to conflict with one another, and give us the strength to love and be patient with ourselves. 

Take away from our hearts every form of wickedness and bitterness towards one another.

You promised in Leviticus 26:6:

I shall also grant peace in the land, so that you may lie down, with no one to make you afraid. 

I shall also eliminate harmful animals from the land, and no sword will pass through your land.

At this moment, I declare, according to Your word, that we have peace in our communities and nation.

I and my household will not do not live in fear, for You deliver us from enemies. Let everything representing harm and calamity be eliminated from this land.

Violence and evil will not pass through or rest in my community and residence because you will cover us all, Lord.

In Jesus’ name, I declare.

Amen.
