Calling Forth the Prayers of the Righteous

James 5:16 - Confess to one another therefore your faults (your slips, your false steps, your offenses, your sins) and pray [also] for one another, that you may be healed and restored [to a spiritual tone of mind and heart]. The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working].  (AMP)

I Peter 3: 12 - For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous (those who are upright and in right standing with God), and His ears are attentive to their prayer. But the face of the Lord is against those who practice evil [to oppose them, to frustrate, and defeat them].  (AMP)

Calling Forth the

Prayers of the Righteous

God is calling forth the prayers of the righteous

That He may deliver us from our educational crisis

United we stand; Divided we fall

So, let us answer the call

To stand upon the Intercessory wall

And cultural mountain of education

Within this great nation

Let us unite

And fight

In God’s might

Till all things be made right

Through the shedding of God’s light

Even in the darkest night

And greatest plight

Of education

Within this great nation.

Hear the children’s cries

They have grown tired of hearing lies

And inheriting a nation in demise

So, they cry to be made wise.

Knowledge is ever increasing

Yet, the cry of wisdom is never ceasing

She cries in the street

Separating the chaff from the wheat

Separating the goats from the sheep

So, let us answer Wisdom’s call

To fall

On our knees

Awaiting a Spiritual release

Setting us free

To really see

The necessity

Of the prayers of the righteous

So, that God may deliver us from our educational crisis.
