Prayers for Peacemakers, August 19, 2015

Pray for those whom armed groups have driven off their land in
Colombia. The government says its goal is to return six million hectares of
land to people who were violently displaced; but at the current rate that the
government is returning land to these people, it will take 500 years to reach
its goal.

Put on the whole armor of God, so that you may  be able to stand against
  the wiles of the devil. 
For our struggle is not against enemies of blood 
and flesh, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the
 cosmic powers of this  present  darkness, against the spiritual forces of
 evil in the  heavenly places. Ephesians 6:11-12

Revised Common Lectionary readings.
