I am here today calling all who read this to bow before the Lord and ask humbly that He hears our prayers as we pray together:
Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, As it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, The power, and the glory, For ever and ever. Amen
The Lord’s Prayer – Matthew 6:9-13
Dear Heavenly Father,
Our nation has sinned and sinned greatly. We have all been complicit. We are truly sorry and humbly ask You to heal us and to heal our land. We ask that You help us turn from our wicked ways and follow You and Your commands over and above all the inclinations of our flesh and our habits and all that is displeasing to You and Your ways. Please help us to do so daily, individually and corporately as we have the opportunity to do so.
We further ask for Your blessings and Your healing upon us and upon our land as we get back in line with You. We cannot do this without Your help. We need You desperately. We implore You to hear our prayer, forgive our sin, and teach us by the power of Your Word and Holy Spirit.
We love You and beseech Your mercies upon us and our nation.
In Yahshuah Messiah (Jesus) most holy precious name I pray.
Amen
Note: For some people, including myself, the eclipse tomorrow April 8th is a clear sign from heaven and a call for repentance. If you agree, you might enjoy this article. It will probably look like a normal eclipse and a normal day to many. However, if it is our Heavenly Father speaking through His creation, it would behoove us to all pay attention. Please continue to pray!
Here are some additional verses to consider while praying for repentance :
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
II Chronicles 7:14
Jeremiah 50:4-5
Ezekiel 36:25-29
14 Therefore hath the Lord watched upon the evil, and brought it upon us: for the Lordour God is righteous in all his works which he doeth: for we obeyed not his voice.
15 And now, O Lord our God, that hast brought thy people forth out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and hast gotten thee renown, as at this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly.
16 O Lord, according to all thy righteousness, I beseech thee, let thine anger and thy fury be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain: because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people are become a reproach to all that are about us.
17 Now therefore, O our God, hear the prayer of thy servant, and his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord’s sake.
18 O my God, incline thine ear, and hear; open thine eyes, and behold our desolations, and the city which is called by thy name: for we do not present our supplications before thee for our righteousnesses, but for thy great mercies.
