If you look around at the many injustices of our time and pray day and night that God would grant justice to the downtrodden and the oppressed and the voiceless, look out: God may be calling you to go and do something to help him make your prayer come true. Prayer is action, calling on God to open up the floodgates of his power to make God’s kingdom come, God’s will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Prayer is action and prayer calls us into action, getting us involved with what God is doing in the world to do battle with the powers of darkness, proclaim good news to sinners, fill the hungry with good things, and lift up the lowly.
