The Faithful city lost pure silver and drink. When a city turns
its back on God many things begin to go wrong. The crime rate rises, Church
attendance falls and Righteous Government ceases. It is necessary and important
for Churches to actively Pray for the City, Town or Village in which the Lord
has placed them.
