Day 3 of 40 Days of Prayer


until at last the Spirit is poured out
    on us from heaven.
Then the wilderness will become a fertile field,
    and the fertile field will yield bountiful crops. (Isaiah 32:15 NLT)

For I will pour out water to quench your thirst
    and to irrigate your parched fields.
And I will pour out my Spirit on your descendants,
    and my blessing on your children. (Isaiah 44:3 NLT)

Dear Heavenly Father, we thank you for your mercy and your grace and for your never-ending love! Lord, we ask for forgiveness of our sins, sins against you and each other – sins that your Son bought with his blood, sins that only He can wash white as snow – so thank you for your Son, our Lord and Savior, who has redeemed us and made us your children! We thank you for your Holy Spirit who guides us and leads us in your ways. We come together today, to pray for our nation and our leaders – we pray that your Holy Spirit would be heard and felt, we pray for a stirring in their hearts, a softening and a turning to you. We pray for a pouring out of your Holy Spirit on all your children, cover us, so that every breath we take would be for you and not for ourselves. Saturate every molecule of our being so that your thoughts are our thoughts, your words are our words, your actions are our actions, fill us till we are overflowing so we don’t know where you end and we begin. Lord, we want to be more like you and less like us – so that your light shining within us can be seen by any who are near us. We want the lost to know that we are your children without ever having to say a word, because we are so full of you and your Holy Spirit. May we each be a laborer in your Harvest, whether planting or watering a seed, may we share you and your Son with all we meet - in a smile, a kind word, or an act of selflessness – but to you ALL the honor and glory! In Jesus’ name we pray ~ AMEN
