Old Testament Verse

You have taken up my cause, O Lord, you have redeemed my life.
Lamentations 3:58

New Testament Verse

Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you should follow in his steps. When he was abused, he did not return abuse; when he suffered, he did not threaten; but he entrusted himself to the one who judges justly.
1 Peter 2:21, 23

Prayer

Loving Lord, when I consider what you suffered for my sake, I can do nothing but praise your name. Thank you for standing with me among the snares of this world and against the slings of the enemy. Help me to take up the cause of those who suffer, standing with them as a sign of your love. Amen.
