Every night at 9pm I say a prayer for America. Will you join me in this habit of praying at 9pm for our country? My prayer this evening to our Father in Heaven is that…
God will heal our hearts and our land.
That we will awaken to a sense of our awful situation and turn to God for direction, for wisdom, for common sense, for true hope, and a bright future for our children and grandchildren.
That those who have been reared in chaos, violence, and poverty, who feel they have nothing to lose, will find mentors and guides to lift them from their situation and know that their lives do matter.
They do not have to live in these awful conditions. Help them to know peace, productivity and purpose.
Guide good people to them to love, mentor and light the way for them.
Pour out your protection on our law enforcement and military who risk their lives to protect the rest of us. Send angels round about them to bear them up and keep them safe. Give them wisdom and understanding to make wise split-second choices in difficult situations.
Give hope to the hopeless, sight to the blind. Help the deaf to hear Your voice and those who walk in darkness to finally see the light.
Open our eyes that we may see each other through YOUR eyes and witness the divine in each other.
Protect the pure in heart, those who are striving to be kind to their fellowman. Protect those who have a desire to lift our people and make the world a better place.
Remove from public office those who would destroy and degrade our country. Replace them with good, honest people who will seek to uphold their oaths of office.
Lord, only YOU see the thoughts and intents of the heart. You be the judge. We release judgement of any and all, knowing we ourselves are not blameless of our own faults. Vengeance is thine, we step out of the way and allow You to repay.
Show mercy to those who are lost and confused, for we too have been lost and confused and have felt Your mercy.
Forgive those who have caused or seek to cause harm to those we love; for we know that we too need Your forgiveness.
Please hear the prayers and the cries of those of us who put our trust in You, Father. In the name of Your precious, perfect Son, Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen.
