Father, You hear my plea, and You will answer. I come to seek your mercy over our nation. I come to pray for repentance of the people and a turning toward You. I come to pray for those who have walked away from your love. Bring them back. I ask that your Holy Spirit overcome the walls they set up to captivate their prodigal hearts and renew in them the joy of your salvation. Let the people, who are called by your name, humble themselves and pray. Heal our land and be glorified in the outcome. I pray for sanity, peace and assurance, Father, in the name and authority of Jesus, according to your good and perfect will. Amen.
“If you will seek God and plead with the Almighty for mercy, if you are pure and upright, surely then he will rouse himself for you and restore your rightful habitation. And though your beginning was small, your latter days will be very great.” (Job 8: 5-7 ESV)
