Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, interceding on behalf of Steven Bobb and his concern for the direction of the world. We acknowledge that sin has always been present in the world, but we recognize that in recent times, it seems to have escalated and become more accepted. Lord, we lift up our hearts in prayer, asking for repentance and a return to a more moral lifestyle.
Your Word reminds us in Isaiah 55:6-7, "Seek the Lord while he may be found; call upon him while he is near; let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; let him return to the Lord, that he may have compassion on him, and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon." We pray that individuals would turn away from their sinful ways and seek You, Lord, with all their hearts.
We ask for a revival of righteousness and godliness in our society. May Your Spirit move mightily, convicting hearts and leading people to repentance. Help us to be a light in the darkness, shining Your truth and love to those around us. Grant us the courage to stand firm in our faith and to boldly share the Gospel, that many may come to know You and experience the transforming power of Your grace.
Lord, we pray for leaders and influencers in various spheres of society. Give them wisdom and discernment to make decisions that align with Your truth and promote moral values. Soften the hearts of those who have embraced immorality and pagan practices, that they may encounter Your love and turn away from their destructive ways.
We trust in Your sovereignty, knowing that You are able to bring about change and restoration. Strengthen our resolve to live according to Your Word and to be a positive influence in our communities. May Your kingdom come and Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
