prayer for prisoners

For six years I ministered to men imprisoned and in jail. Many of the guys that I visited were believers. I often left them more encouraged than when I came. Please pray this Beliefnet prayer with me as we remember those behind bars.

Lord, you offer freedom to all people. We pray for all who are captive in prison and for those who are affected by or involved in their imprisonment. Break the bonds of fear and isolation that exist. Support with your love, prisoners, their families, friends, prison staff and all who care. Heal those who have been wounded by the activities of others, especially the victims of crime. Help us to forgive one another, to act justly, love mercy and walk humbly together with Christ, in his strength and his spirit, now and every day.

Amen
