From Spurgeon's "Faith's Check Book"069-Prayer for Peace |
"And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captives, and
pray unto the Lord for it: for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace." Jeremiah 29:7) The principle involved in this text would suggest to all of us who are the Lord's strangers
and foreigners that we should be desirous to promote the peace and prosperity of the people
among whom we dwell. Specially should our nation and our city be blest by our constant
intercession. An earnest prayer for your country and other countries is well becoming in the
mouth of every believer. Eagerly let us pray for the great boon of peace, both at home and abroad. If strife should
cause bloodshed in our streets, or if foreign battle should slay our brave soldiers, we should
all bewail the calamity; let us therefore pray for peace and diligently promote those principles
by which the classes at home and the races abroad may be bound together in bonds of amity.
