We join with you in prayer for our country, recognizing that we need a willing God and His Son Jesus Christ at the forefront to combat any issues of that any country faces.
We begin our prayer:
"Dear heavenly Father,
You instruct us to ask for leaders and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.
WEB 1 Timothy 2:1-2:
I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks, be made for all men: for kings and all who are in high places; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.
If anyone confesses their sins, You are faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
As a people, we confess our sins to You, including the sins of our nation. We pray that You will heal our land, and that Your people, who are called by Your name, will humble themselves, turn from their wicked ways, and seek Your face.
Forgive our sins and heal our land. We acknowledge our transgressions and need for a savior.
We praise You that the earth is Yours and everything in it. The world and all who live in it. You set the world firmly in place, so it never be moved. You will judge people uprightly.
We ask, Lord, that our leaders would be granted wisdom, discernment, higher knowledge, and understanding.
Father, You will bring every act to judgment, everything which is hidden, whether it is good, or evil.
We ask that You teach us and that You expose wickedness in secret places You destroy with Your mouth those who speak lies.
We repent of every word spoken in every gathering where Your Name is not uplifted.
We ask that the body of Christ would be salt and light in this world and among our nation. We seek to preserve Your truth and live out our faith in all we say and do.
Your Word instructs us to submit to every ordinance of man for Your sake.
Grant us Your heart and wisdom to walk in our calling with a spirit of humility, integrity justice.
Thank you that by Jesus stripes we are healed and to those who ask in line with Your perfect will in Jesus name can rely on Your Word and Holy Spirits Gift to those who ask.
By Jesus we have the victory and we receive it. In Jesus name.
Amen."
We can be assured that as we confess our sins plead with Him the state of our country that He hears us. A nation that turns to God and values His presence in life, politics, and leadership.
Jesus is the only way to the Father.
John 14:6
Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
We must as a nation acknowledge Jesus so that we as a nation can acknowledge sin and the forgiveness available if we will turn to You and need to repent. We are only reconciled to God through Jesus Christ. Let us repent and trust in Him.
