Body of Christ to pray fervently for our nation and leaders, No. 1

***That the body of Christ in America would fervently pray for our nation and its leaders.

1 Corinthians 6:9
Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,...

Please pray with me:

Heavenly Father,
You, God of Creation, God of justice and of grace; You are the God of Righteousness. Glory be Your Name. You and You only, judge rightly.

Beckon us to come. Place a yearning within this nation to desire righteousness and to seek You, who gives freely. Truly, we can have no righteousness of our own, but only through Jesus Christ, who clothes us in His righteousness. Only through Him can we even approach You.

Philipianes 3:9
9And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

Raise up a nation of humble followers of Christ. Raise up an army of prayer warriors who love what You love and hate what You hate. Establish prayers within us to pray for our leaders and this nation to seek the true righteousness that comes only from Christ.

Father, You establish Your own as a testimony of Your work within us. Thank You. Give us a testimony to those who see our lives—a testimony that is credible and inviting. Establish relationships with local, state and national leaders that, through us, Truth may be spoken.

Father, in this army of prayer warriors and action-takers, fill us with unction to hear Your voice and to move quickly when opportunity arises. Give us a doorway to our leaders throughout the nation and our neighbors, to pray with compassion, to implore You on our behalf, to beg You for Your mercy and bring this nation back to Your guidance, Your principles, and Your favor.

Help us, that we may stand strong and that we may be found faithful in the day of His coming.

In Jesus’ Name.
