Heavenly Father, We lift Tommy before You as he prepares to face another court hearing. Draw close to him in the waiting, in the courtroom, and in the quiet moments when uncertainty is hardest to carry. You know the burdens he bears, the concerns he keeps to himself, and the strength he needs for the days ahead. Help him to know that he is neither forgotten nor alone. Give him a clear mind, a steady heart and the courage to face each moment with dignity. When he is weary, renew his strength. When he is anxious, quiet his thoughts. Surround him with people whose counsel is wise, whose friendship is faithful and whose care asks nothing in return. Lord, we ask for justice that is honest, impartial and free from political pressure. Let the evidence be examined carefully, his defence be heard fully, and every decision be guided by truth. Where there is injustice, bring it into the light. Where power is misused, give people the courage to challenge it. Let neither prejudice nor public hostility stand in the way of a fair hearing. Grant his legal team wisdom, diligence and clarity. Give everyone entrusted with this case the integrity to fulfil their responsibilities faithfully, remembering the human lives affected by their decisions. Protect the freedoms of conscience and expression, and help us all to exercise them with honesty and responsibility. Place Your protection over Tommy and those he loves. Keep them safe from harm, threats and intimidation. Hold his children and family close in Your care. Ease the strain of waiting and the pain of circumstances they cannot control. Through the kindness and practical help of others, remind them that they do not carry this burden alone. Lord Jesus, sustain Tommy’s faith through this uncertainty. Keep bitterness from taking root, and preserve his capacity for compassion. Give him the humility to seek Your guidance, the strength to act with integrity, and the grace to hold firmly to his convictions without surrendering his heart to hatred. Guide those who stand beside him. Let their support bring comfort, their words remain truthful and their actions remain peaceful. Teach us to seek justice with determination and to remember mercy, even when emotions run high. Father, we ask for truth to prevail, for any injustice to be put right, and for relief and peace for Tommy and his family. As he walks into that courtroom, let him carry the assurance of Your presence. Give him grace for each hour, hope for the future, and rest when the day is done. In the name of Jesus Christ, our refuge and our strength. Amen.
