Many people seem to be looking out for themselves; too many people have to be paid to care. Half a generation of children are growing up without a father. Some children are lured into promiscuity. The Christian faith is under attack from the media and homosexual activists. Our politicians feed us propaganda. Family breakdown, crime, immorality, debt, gambling, drink and drugs are more than just statistics. They affect and ruin the lives of real people. The Church needs to develop a prophetic voice, to speak out to our leaders and our nation just as the Biblical prophets were unafraid to do. We Christians need to pray for our nation and its people, out of our love for our Saviour and the victims of injustice. Our prayer needs to be not just, ‘Lord, do something!’; it needs to be, ‘Lord, what can I do?’ When we work, we work. When we pray, God works. When we do both, God works miracles.
