For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They
are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. 12 In
those days when you pray, I will listen. 13 If you look for me wholeheartedly,
you will find me. 14 I will be found by you,” says the Lord. “I will end your
captivity and restore your fortunes. I will gather you out of the nations where
I sent you and will bring you home again to your own land.” (Jeremiah 29:11-14
NLT)
Dear Heavenly Father, you are so awesome, you are so
majestic, you are beyond any goodness we can imagine. We thank you for all the
blessings, mercies, grace and favor you have given your children and our
country – we know your hand has been upon this nation from the days it was
founded and we are here today to pray for your hand to stay upon this nation.
Lord, your Word tells us that you have good plans for us, a future and a hope –
we know we have sinned against you and each other as a nation, we ask for
forgiveness of those sins as we seek you and your everlasting compassion for
your children. We claim the blood of Jesus over those sins and we know they are
cast into the bottom of the sea and forgotten. We pray for each and every
person to receive the gift of Salvation; you have already given it, each person
has merely to confess it and receive it. We pray that eyes would be opened, that ears would hear,
that hearts would be turned to you, and that minds would be open to your
message. We pray for the leaders of our nation, that they would search for you
wholeheartedly, because when they do, they will find you Lord. We pray that
every soul would be claimed in the name of Jesus Christ and receive your
eternal gift of Salvation. We pray for the lost who have been stuck in
captivity by the enemy, that they would receive the peace you have freely given
them, we pray that heart choices would be made and lives would be changed. We
pray that each and every lost and wandering soul would repent and return to
you, because just the like the prodigal son returning, you are the loving father, anxiously awaiting to receive your lost child back into your
kingdom with arms outstretched full of mercy and lovingkindness. In Jesus’ name we pray ~ AMEN
