O
God of Ezra. Your scripture says in James 5:16b "The Prayer of the
righteous is powerful and effective. Thank you, God for Ezra's reforms in the
pluralistic society (Ezra 9) by the power of prayer. Usually clergy teach,
reprove and correct laity but in the book of Ezra, we see descendants of
priests and Levites mixed up with gentiles and spoiled their seed (Ezra
10:18-24). Therefore, Ezra did not spare, did not compromise with their status
and did not step back in his reforms. What we see is surgical strikes on CHOSEN
FAMILIES (Ezra 10:5-8). Dear God, we
thank you for the life of Ezra, for his uncompromising nature in holiness and
for his bold attitude to keep your precepts and for his never-ending endurance.
O God of Ezra, we pray that you give us the same kind of personality to march
forward. In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.
