SATURDAY PRAYER (01JUN19)

SATURDAY PRAYER – (01JUN19) Dear Heavenly Father, Lord we thank you for bringing us through yet another week safe and sound. There were many people who did not make it to see today and even as of yesterday, there were those who were shot and killed who unexpectedly transitioned from this life. Therefore, we thank you for allowing us to come into your mighty presence one more time. You are a wonderful, mighty, amazing, and gracious God. There is no One like you for you are Holy and Righteous. Lord, we ask that you would forgive us for all the sins that we have committed and to please cleanse us from all unrighteousness. We are so undeserving of your goodness, but we ask that you would hear from Heaven and take away our sins of guilt and shame for which Jesus, Yeshua Hamashiach died. We as a nation have failed you. We have committed sin upon sin that has reached your nostrils. We know that you are not pleased with us as a nation. We have dishonored you in so many ways and have placed our idols over you and our sins of preference above you. We as a nation have committed the sins of greed, lust, murder, pride, selfishness, theft, slander, sexual immorality, drunkenness, and so many other sins that are detestable to you. We as a nation have gone too far that we must ask for your mercy in the judgments that you send. We know that the flooding, tornadoes, hailstorms, weather abnormalities, animal deaths, and even the wickedness amongst mankind is being allowed because of all the sin that we have committed against you. We are here to confess our sins and that of this nation. We ask that you will forgive us and even when judgments come in accordance to your Word, we know that you are still merciful and true.

Lord, we ask that you will be with the families of those who lost loved ones to violence. We ask that you will bring those who do not know you to Christ and that those who do will be encouraged despite their loss. We pray for those who have lost loved ones recently, and even if it has been years after the anniversary of their loss, we ask that you will be their hope and comfort. We pray that they will never feel alone, but will take great relief in knowing that you will fill the emptiness in their heart. We ask that as each day goes by, things will get easier because you are their Pillar of support. We pray for those who are sick, elderly, widowed, and on hospice. We ask for your wings of comfort and divine protection over them. We pray that you will heal them if not in body, but in mind. We pray for the homeless, the unemployed, the underemployed, and those who are struggling financially. We pray for doors to be opened in accordance to your will. We pray for those who are having legal troubles, family troubles, marriage troubles, or other troubles. We pray that you will solve, adjust, and restore all that is broken.

We pray for those who are serving our nation’s military. We ask for your protection over them in the sea, air, and land. We pray for our government leaders and that your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. We pray for the peace of Jerusalem and that you will watch over your people. We ask for those who are not accepting of the Messiah will come to you and know of your love that was shown through the shedding of your blood for our sins. We pray for the lost and we ask that in your mercy, you will save them even if it is at their dying breath. We pray for the comatose church to awaken and speak your uncompromised truth. We know that time is short and that your coming is growing closer as each day goes by. We pray that we are ready and we look forward to the day when you come to take us home.

We love you Lord and we give you all praise and glory. We humble ourselves before you as we ask that you receive our prayers and that it be a sweet incense to you. We ask all these things in Jesus’ might Name, Yeshua Hamashiach. Amen.
