Read regular prayer updates during this week's trial here: http://freedomcommons.ijm.org/news/live-blog-seeking-justice-in-kenya |
Lord, today we pray for the family and friends of
International Justice Mission investigator and human rights lawyer Willie
Kimani. Not only have his loved ones been grieving his murder, but they are now
facing the trial of the five alleged perpetrators. As you know, Kimani’s family
is not the only family going through this literal and emotional trial, but so
are the families of the friends killed with him: Joseph Muiruri and Josephat
Mwenda. Lord, please bring comfort, peace and hope to all these grieving loved
ones. Lord, it is also our fervent prayer that justice be done during this
trial. We want truth to come out, your name to be glorified, and justice to be
meted. Lord, please be with the IJM legal team that is representing these
families. Protect them on every level. Guard their hearts and their minds in
Christ Jesus. May their talents shine for you. May they be remarkably
effective. May the judge see clearly. May people come to know you through this
entire process. And, Lord, thank you for welcoming your beloved Kimani, Muiruri
and Mwenda with open arms and special rewards. We are so thankful a beautiful
eternity awaits all your children, where a glorious reunion will occur in the
midst of our worship of you. Amen!
