This, Dear Lord.

A prayer for leaders:

“Lord, give me character that is greater than my gifts, and humility that is greater than my influence" (Scott Sauls)

may you heal so hard you start being creative again.

"One reason why God's people suffer, according to the Bible, is that it is a disciplinary, chastening, and molding process." —Billy Graham

no more "in my humble opinion", from now on it's "from my grandiose and objectively correct deductions".

[Don Blunts @DonMwambad]

Thus says the Lord of hosts through the prophet Zechariah, speaking still today to every polity that has exchanged justice for ritual, mercy for performance, and the cry of the poor for the noise of the magnificent:
“Return to me, and I will return to you.” But if you refuse, the desolation is certain.

And the remnant says: Come, Lord Jesus. Break our diamond hearts. Let us hear again.

[Don Blunts @DonMwambad]

And when the whirlwind comes, when the polity scatters and the land is desolate; you will be the seed of the new creation. Your hearts, broken and soft, will hear the voice of God again. And the pleasant land will be made pleasant once more, not by the profit‑worshipping machine, but by the rain of the Spirit and the labor of loving hands.

A. “They refused to pay attention” – Information is filtered

The polity’s media, algorithms, and education system are designed to prevent attention from settling on injustice. The poor are invisible. The evicted are not interviewed. The debtor’s suicide is not reported. The protester’s death is a footnote. The opposition’s press conference is broadcast, but its substance is ignored. The clergy’s sermon on “unity” is streamed, but the widow’s cry is not.

The Refusal to Hear – The Polity’s Willful Deafness

But they refused to pay attention and turned a stubborn shoulder and stopped their ears that they might not hear. They made their hearts diamond‑hard lest they should hear the law and the words that the Lord of hosts had sent by his Spirit through the former prophets. (Zechariah 7:11–12)

[Don Blunts @DonMwambad]

Zechariah says they refused to hear “the law and the words that the Lord of hosts had sent by his Spirit through the former prophets.” The former prophets, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Amos, Micah; all said the same thing: justice, mercy, care for the vulnerable. The polity has the same prophets today: activists, whistleblowers, some pastors, some journalists. They are ignored, mocked, or killed. The spirit of the Lord is still speaking, but the polity has perfected the art of not listening.

Watch a Mau Mau revolutionary explain how he resisted British colonialism, and why the fight isn't over.

Maina wa Murigu took up arms against British colonial rule and is still waiting for his land back, more than six decades after independence.

Speaking from Nairobi on Kenya's 63rd Madaraka Day, he described fighting British soldiers with machetes, seizing their weapons and retreating into the forests. Madaraka Day, marked every June 1, commemorates the day Kenya achieved self-rule from Britain in 1963.

"Our parents died without ever getting justice," he said. "We are soon following them."

Britain's response to the uprising was a state of emergency lasting from 1952 to 1959. The Kenya Human Rights Commission estimates 90,000 Kenyans were executed, tortured or maimed. 160,000 were detained. Nazi-style concentration camps held over 1.5 million more.

Documents recording the atrocities were later destroyed or hidden by British authorities.

The Prophetic Word for the Remnant

Zechariah is not only an indictment; it is a call to repentance. To the remnant who still have soft hearts, who still hear the cry of the poor, who still refuse to devise evil, the word is:

“Render true judgments, show kindness and mercy, do not oppress the vulnerable, and do not devise evil in your hearts.” Do this, even if the polity does not. Do this in small acts, in hidden places, in the cracks of the system. Do this without expectation of reward, because the reward is not from Caesar but from the Lord of hosts.

[Don Blunts @DonMwambad]

The judgment is poetic justice: You refused to hear the cries of the vulnerable; therefore, when you cry out, I will refuse to hear you. This is the most terrifying aspect of the polity’s future.

I was thinking this morning on my way to work about the many atrocities ongoing in the nation, and for some reason my mind kept going to the brutal murder of Stephen in Acts.

It is very possible that we underestimate the depth of conviction in the early church as they remained steadfast in Christ despite witnessing their own being killed in cold blood.

What followed was an explosion of evangelism and the spread of God’s Word. But this is not normal. There is absolutely nothing normal about the Christian faith.

How a circumstance that should have led to despair, division, and ruin instead became the catalyst for the advancement of the gospel is humbling to think about.

Ultimately, this is how I comfort myself: all circumstances bow down to the hand of God. And it is my genuine prayer that God uses all of these things for the good of our nation and His church.

As R.C. Sproul noted, it may seem as though the darkness is winning, but God’s Word stands firm. We have something surer and greater than this material world. And we trust that God, who is faithful, is ordering all things for our good.

[Holy Bible @Holy__Bible1]

Heavenly Father,

We pray for those who are struggling with poverty, hunger, and hardship. Provide them with daily bread, shelter, strength, and hope. Open doors of opportunity, surround them with caring people, and meet their needs according to Your love and mercy.

Comfort the brokenhearted, protect the vulnerable, and bless those who work to help others. Teach us to be generous and compassionate, sharing Your love with those in need.

In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙏❤️

Elijah literally told God he was exhausted, overwhelmed, and ready to give up, and instead of punishment or disappointment, God responded with rest, food, and care

so pretending to be okay when you are not doesn’t impress Him, it just distances you from the intimacy that comes with truth. God is not asking for perfection, He is asking for honesty.

[Wanza @Ms_Wanza]

This is our fight.

“When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command locusts to devour the land or send a plague among my people, if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven,
