SCRIPTURE
Isaiah 1:26 AMP And I will restore your judges as at the first, and your counselors as at the beginning; afterward you shall be called the City of Righteousness, the Faithful City.

NUGGET
Have you ever prayed for your city to become a “faithful city?” My town has many nicknames including “Music City.” It gets its name from all of the music industry and activity that takes place here. I wonder what would change if Nashville became known for its faithfulness to God. What would be different? What kind of people would it attract? What would happen to the DNA of Nashville? I want Nashville to be known for its worship of Jesus, and faithfulness to God. What would your city look or sound like if it became a faithful city? What atmosphere do people experience when they encounter your city right now?

ACTIVATION
Take a few minutes to pray Isaiah 1:26 over your city. Ask the Lord to turn your town into a faithful city. Ask the Lord how He sees your city. Read Isaiah 1:17 for ideas.

PRAYER
(Insert your own city name into this prayer) Oh Lord, make [Nashville] a faithful city. Give us hearts that long for justice and righteousness. Let us be on the right side of history and justice. Stop corruption and greed, and show us how to partner with Your Holy Spirit in order to expose evil and become a City of Righteousness! In Jesus name, Amen.
