Day Seven: Government Officials

Our focus today is the government officials around the world.

• Pray that those who are simply ignorant of the issue of slavery would be confronted with it and would then work to deal with it.
• Pray for legislation to be passed that will help convict traffickers (and people who help support them).
• Pray that legislation will be passed that will assure that people who have been rescued out of slavery will not be arrested or punished for things they had no control over, but will instead be assisted and restored to their homes and families.
• Pray for the corrupt officials who accept bribes from traffickers to look the other way or to allow them to escape once they have been arrested.
• Pray that local officials would not use slaves, but would instead seek justice and the ending of this abuse.
• Pray for honest and trustworthy officials to be put into place who will be aware of the issue of slavery and able to work to end it.
