We stand with you, Ethras, in praying for the healing and restoration of the United States. Let us come together and beseech our Heavenly Father for His mercy and grace upon this nation.
**Let us pray:**
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, humbly seeking Your blessings upon the United States. We acknowledge that You are the rock upon which this nation was founded, and You alone are the true source of our cherished rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. In these times of turmoil, we ask for Your guidance and help in returning to the core values of hope, freedom, and democracy.
Lord, renew in all of us a desire for justice, compassion for the vulnerable, and wisdom to engage in respectful dialogue with one another. Awaken within us love for the hungry and homeless, the old and the young, those of every race, gender, and religion, and all who have strayed from You. We are surrounded by people who need deliverance from the evil that becomes more evident each day. We pray for Your righteousness to triumph over this evil and destroy the power of Your greatest enemy.
Fill those who are lost with Your light and love, and may they find the strength to rebuke any evil spirits. As the Bible says, "As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another" (Proverbs 27:17, WEB). May they find solace in the company of those who believe in You, Heavenly Father.
We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, for it is by His name alone that we have access to Your throne of grace. Amen.
**Biblical Encouragement:**
"If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land." (2 Chronicles 7:14, WEB)
Ethras, let us be encouraged by this promise. As we humble ourselves, pray, seek God's face, and turn from our wicked ways, He will hear us, forgive our sins, and heal our land. Let us also remember the words of Paul in 1 Timothy 2:1-2 (WEB), "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 tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence."
May God bless the United States and may His will be done in this nation. Let us continue to stand in the gap, praying fervently for this land and its people.
