O Lord God, I praise your Name. All the blessings that I
have are because of your love and kindness to me. My health and the health and
safety of my family rests in your loving hands. The clothes that I wear, the
food that I eat, even the breaths that I take are given me out of your mercy.
O Lord God, I praise your Name. I lift up the people that
read this prayer. I pray for their continued well-being and for all of them to
realize that we live only to serve you. I ask for your blessings upon their
families and their lives. I pray for them to have wisdom in all that they do
and to fully understand the grace that is available to them through Jesus
Christ.
O Lord God, I praise your Name. I lift up our Churches O
Lord. I ask for your blessings on them. Give them strength of will and steadfastness
in their mission.
O Lord God, I praise your Name. I lift up our nation to you.
I beg you to forgive us for the path that we allow ourselves to travel on. You
have blessed this nation with wide seas to keep our enemies at bay. Our natural
resources are boundless and we lack for nothing. Yet in our abundance and
safety we have chosen to place our faith in other men instead of You, O Lord
God. I pray for our leaders and for wisdom for them and for the people that
choose them. Your Holy Name is mocked. We murder the least among us, no better
than the ancient followers of Baal. As a nation, we turn our backs to fellow
Christians in other lands that are in need of our protection. We hold Israel,
your chosen people, at arm’s length. We allow ourselves to become numb to the
needs of those around us. We chase after physical and intellectual corruption
on all sides. The nation behaves as if it is guaranteed to last forever, yet history
is littered with the remains of prior nations that also believed in their
everlasting destiny. I pray for this nation to have more time so that a
spiritual awakening might occur. For
all these things I ask in the name of Jesus Christ.
O Lord God, I praise your Name. Amen.
