This prayer is especially for young men of African American descent. Included are whites, mixed and Hispanic. Murder is a demonic spirit that originates from the devil and sadly plagues our nation. We pray that God puts these murderers affiliated with gangs, etcetera down, meaning cause them to come to themselves and receive His salvation. Also, block their pathway to hurting others and themselves.
Several Christians who are born-again believers are ex-cons, convicts, and murderers, and if God can deliver one from this spirit, He will do so for another if they are willing. We see all too often murderers get away with hideous crimes as the number of "bodies" under their belt increase. I pray there be consequences for their actions and justice for families, all while praying that God redeems their souls from eternal damnation. We, the church, must take some responsibility for our nation's condition, repent ourselves for contributing to the sin pandemic and stay on the wall at whatever capacity or sphere of influence in which we serve.
David, Paul, and Moses were murderers. God cleaned them up and used them for His glory. I ask that God puts the murderers to sleep and speak to them, offering them the chance to get it right with Him and others they've hurt before it is too late. It seems when one sleeps; then they hear God's voice. Nevertheless, God will speak when and how He sees fit. I pray when God shows them to themselves along with the consequences of their actions that it scares them right into repentance. I pray that reverential fear of God comes on them so strong that it causes them to repent and receive the love of God. Absent of God, there is no peace.
I am personally grateful that God, like Paul on the road to Damascus, "put me down." Though our nation's condition will worsen, God can still save, deliver, and bring healing to the hurting soul, even murderers.

"But in accordance with your hardness and your impenitent heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God, who “will render to each one according to his deeds” eternal life to those who by patient continuance in doing good seek for glory, honor, and immortality; but to those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness—indignation and wrath, tribulation and anguish, on every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of the Greek; but glory, honor, and peace to everyone who works what is good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For there is no partiality with God." Romans 2:5-11 NKJV
