Praying from Matthew 10:34 relating to Conflict, Division, Judgment.

Dear God, help me to understand the true meaning behind your words when you said, “Don’t think that I came to send peace on the earth. I didn’t come to send peace, but a sword.” May I have the courage to stand up for what is right and just, even if it means facing conflict and opposition. Help me to trust in your plan and to have faith that your sword will bring about ultimate peace and justice. Amen.

Verse: “Don’t think that I came to send peace on the earth. I didn’t come to send peace, but a sword.
Matthew 10:34

This is a Command. The verse is a warning from Jesus that his message will cause division and conflict, rather than peace.
