Prayers For Our Prisoners Blog

1
PRAYERS (PLUS) for OUR PRISONERS;

& THOSE ON DEATH ROW
THIS BEGAN as a prayer site for our prisoners in general, but I am also adding "death row" prisoners in
specific..after hearing a few stories about persons on death row wrongly convicted.., and also about
"zealous prosecutors" not concerned about false convictions..but simply getting convictions, true or false.
Let us remain conscientious about false convictions, zealous prosecutors, and all things related; as well
as care & prayer for those who were rightly convicted.

WELCOME !
note:
I have started an
alternative prison care blog at
http://pray-for-our-prisoners.blogspot.com/
" Remember those who are in prison, as
though in prison with them, and those
who are mistreated, since you also are
in the body."
Hebrews 13:3
also see
http://www.innocenceproject.org/Content/Compensati
ng_The_Wrongly_Convicted.php
AS a Christian I am called... & we are called
collectively, and individually, to CARE about our
prisoners...some who are wrongfully jailed or even
wrongfully executed, others who are actually guilty as
a matter-of-fact, but nonetheless still deserve a certain
amount of care and especially PRAYER...; NOTICE the
Bible doesn't say "remember those who are
wrongfully in prison..."; it mandates care & prayer for
2

all prisoners regardless of the wrongs they
committed, and the harm they may have done. YES we
condemn harmful actions in general and according to
specifics as well, and ask our justice system to do
their job accordingly, but apart from that let us ALSO
remember these prisoners in PRAYER, and for those
who have the ability to also visit with them and
minister to them personally in prisons.

I recently (4/22/13) read a list of people who were
CONFIRMED to have been wrongly executed, ie. they
were determined to have NOT committed the crime for
which they were convicted and sentenced to death.
This TOUCHED my heart and reminded me of the
importance of paying attention to what is happening
in the justice system, and NOT turn a blind eye or
think it's "too much" or too overwhelming for simple
people such as you and I. We MUST pay attention to
these matters, as able, in a civil manner. Read
newspapers, even attend trials at times if it will help
you be aware...and especially more conscientious
about matters of "justice" or "injustice" ...

I will be periodically posting thoughts, articles,
prayers, etc here ... -vk-

" For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty
and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you
welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was
sick and you visited me, I was in prison and
you came to me. Then the righteous will answer
3

him, saying, Lord, when did we see you hungry and
feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? And when did
we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and
clothe you? And when did we see you sick or in
prison and visit you?" Matthew 25:35-46
