Lord, we are aware that we stand at a pivotal moment in our nation’s history, having strayed from Your path for decades. We sincerely repent, turn around, and seek Your forgiveness and mercy. However, we are reminded of Your unwavering righteousness, which saved a city for Your sake. We humbly ask if You will now extend Your salvation to our entire country. Will You hear the heartfelt pleas of Your people? Will You grant us the opportunity to return to You with all our hearts? We make this request with the understanding that there is much work to be done on our part. With humble faith in the righteousness of our beloved Savior, we approach You on behalf of our nation, the one that once honored You. Father, we humbly ask for Your forgiveness and guidance. Help each of us, God our Father, to be a part of reclaiming, redeeming, and rebuilding our beloved country.
But I have this against you, that you have abandoned the love you had at first. Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent, and do the works you did at first. Revelation 2:4-5
“It becomes a people publicly to acknowledge the over-ruling hand of Divine Providence and their dependence upon the Supreme Being as their Creator and Merciful Preserver . . . and with becoming humility and sincere repentance to supplicate the pardon that we may obtain forgiveness through the merits and mediation of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.” ~ Samuel Huntington 18th Governor of Connecticut A Proclamation for a Day of Fasting Prayer and Humiliation March 9, 1791
Operation World Pray for United Arab Emirates (UAE) : Oil wealth transformed much of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) from a poor, rural region to a haven and playground for the world’s ultra-rich. Now it branches out to business and finance, as well as tourism. While those at the top live with incredible wealth, millions of migrant labourers often work in terrible conditions for low pay. Injustice, human rights violations, and human trafficking are significant challenges. Pray for God’s compassion for the poor and downtrodden to be powerfully conveyed to all migrant labourers who endure oppressive conditions in the UAE.
Praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints. Ephesians 6:18 (ESV)
