A PRAYER FOR AMERICA

July 4, 2020 4:53 pm , Leave a Comment ,

As we celebrate “Independence Day” in America, let us pray passionately for God’s plans to come forth for the United States.

Even though there is turmoil happening in America, I know that God has not given up on us and He has great plans for this nation. I feel led by Christ to share a prayer that I wrote years ago.

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank You for Your amazing grace and mercy. We come to You and humbly ask that You keep Your hand on this nation. We are sorry for leaving You out of our decision making so many times. We realize that our country is in danger and we need You desperately to intervene. Let us turn away from all that draws us away from Your love and return to You wholeheartedly. Let us be unified and walk with brotherly love toward one another.

I believe it is Your desire to see this nation thrive and be restored. Let us rise up and be the nation that You always dreamed we would be. Let us show those around us that You are compassionate and abounding in love. Raise our country into a mighty nation and let us be a bright light in the world. Let us live for You purposefully and passionately. We ask You to protect us from calamity. We trust You to do great and mighty things in this nation. We ask You to continue blessing America and let us be a blessing to all nations of the earth. We love You and place our hope in You alone. We pray in Christ’s name. Amen.

HAPPY 4th of JULY!

A PRAYER FOR OUR NATION

God Bless America

Jesus is our only hope. I have complete faith in Christ to restore our nation to a strong, vibrant country. He restored my life beyond my highest expectations. I expect him to restore the United States. However, before the Lord restored my life, he tested my faith. I believe we are headed for a season of testing. I trust that in the end our nation will come forth as pure gold and bring the hope of Christ to a hurting world.

Father,

Thank You for Your amazing grace and love. We come to You and humbly ask that You keep Your hand on this nation. We are sorry for leaving You out of our decision making so many times. We realize that our country is in danger and we need You desperately to intervene. May we turn away from all that draws us away from Your love and return to You wholeheartedly. Let us rend our hearts and know that You are merciful, compassionate, and abounding in love.

I believe it is Your desire to see this nation thrive and be restored. Let us rise up and be the nation that You always dreamed we would be. Raise our country into a mighty nation and let us be a bright light to a dark world. We ask You to appoint the person who is best suited to lead America. We trust You, Lord, to do great and mighty things in this nation. Let us live for You purposefully and passionately. We ask You to protect us from calamity. We love You and place our hope in You. Bless our country and let us be a blessing to all the nations of the world. I pray in Christ’s name. Amen.

“Rend your hearts and not your garments. Return to the Lord your God, for he is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger, and abounding in love, and he relents from sending calamity.” Joel 2:13

 “He knows the way that I take when he has tested me, I will come forth as gold.” Job 23:10 

 “I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” Genesis 12:3

Happy 4th of July! Have a safe and fun day.
