Father, the world is defending further and further into madness. Almost everything the Word tells us is sinful and must never be committed is seen by so many as acceptable and a way of life. Even many of those that call Jesus Lord, actively mock your Word and make light of the sacrifice that was made at Calvary by willingly sinning or encouraging other in their sin. We desperately need you to be our strength, Jesus please shine through us, and focus our hearts on the Holy Spirit's leading.
