Praying Through
Scripture for the Orphan
“Learn to
do right! Seek justice, encourage the oppressed. Defend the cause of the
fatherless, plead the case of the widow.” Isaiah 1:17
“Defend the
cause of the weak and fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and
oppressed.” Psalm 82:3
“A father
to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling. God sets
the lonely in families, he leads forth the prisoners with singing; but the
rebellious live in a sun scorched land.” Psalm 68:5-6
“I will not
leave you as orphans; I will come to you.” John 14:8
“Religion
that God our father accepts as pure and faultless is this: To look after
orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by
the world.” James 1:27
“Now this is
the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His
will, He hears us, and if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know
that we have the petitions that we asked of Him.” 1 John 5:14-15
