Part 2: Peace for Wisconsin and our Cities
Violent protests broke out in Kenosha, Wisconsin this week after police shot and injured a man while responding to a domestic violence call. Unruly crowds responded to the news with looting, arson, and clashes in the streets. Two people have died as a result of the violence. Pray for the peace of our cities and urban areas. Bind back anarchy, Marxism, destruction, and lawlessness. Pray for the homes and businesses being destroyed. Pray for our mayors, governors, city council members, and local law enforcement. Many police forces feel local authorities have turned their back on them as things get intense. Pray for the families of these police forces who are daily putting their lives in danger, keeping the peace. Pray for godly men and women to rise up and take back our culture and cities for righteousness sake.
