Lord, thank You for raising up leadership in our Congress who are attempting to root out fraud that has been draining away the resources needed to help those who are legitimate recipients of legitimate programs. Grant wisdom and discernment to them. Please deal with those who fearmonger – trying to stir up dissention.

Dear God, you rule over all the nations. When it seems like nations are turning away from you, we know that you will show your holiness. Your holiness will not be hidden. We can trust your promises that every nation will worship you and every knee will bow when your glory is revealed. I bow down to you, O Lord. May my life glorify your name and draw others to you. Use me to turn those in my community back to you, God. In Jesus’ name, amen.
