Novena for the Supreme Court – Day 1: Justice
Join in praying the Novena for the Supreme Court to seek God's guidance for just rulings and moral decisions.
Today's Focus: Justice
On this first day of the Novena for the Supreme Court, we pray for just and moral rulings in abortion-related cases. We ask God to guide the justices in making decisions that protect the sanctity of life and align with His divine law.
Prayer for Day 1
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Dear Lord, we thank You for the many freedoms we are blessed with in America. We ask You to bless our country, and particularly to bring about good for our country through the Supreme Court.
Abortion is a great sin, and we know that You are greatly displeased by the legalization of this terrible practice. Many erring and misled people seek to expand the legalization of abortion. The Supreme Court is able to influence how widely accepted and practiced abortion is through its rulings.
Please bless and assist all members of the Supreme Court, and we particularly ask You today to help the Supreme Court to rule justly and morally in all cases related to abortion! Grant them the wisdom to recognize the sanctity of every human life and the courage to make decisions that protect the most vulnerable among us.
Help us to submit ourselves more fully to Your laws at every opportunity. Help us to grow to a deeper friendship with You in every circumstance.
And I especially ask in this novena… (State your intentions here)
Lord, hear our prayers!
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Reflection for Today
Today we pray for justice in Supreme Court rulings, particularly regarding abortion. Justice is the foundation of our relationship with God and the key to understanding His plan for society.
God is our Father, who loves us with a perfect love and is always ready to guide us in justice. As our Father, He knows exactly what we need and when we need it, especially when it comes to protecting life.
The focus on justice for life reminds us that every human being has an inherent right to life. God calls us to pray for the justices to recognize this fundamental truth and to make decisions accordingly.
As we continue this novena, let us ask God to increase our understanding of justice. Let us ask Him to help us turn to Him with confidence in every need, knowing that He will always guide us toward what is just and right.
Remember that God's justice is not limited by time or circumstance. He is perpetually ready to guide us in justice, and we can trust completely in His divine wisdom and love.
