All sin is against You alone. Have mercy on leadership that strives to follow Your ordinances.
Crimes are great. Consequences are ubiquitous.
Will You consider washing away the guilt which permeates the land? Will You cleanse the land from the evil that prevails? Do the leaders know their sin and do they have a heart to repent?
Truly, against You only are these sins committed, yet the land perishes from the non-stop fallout that comes forth.
Will You accuse these leaders of their evil? Will You prick their hearts and minds, that they may repent? Or is passing sentence the prevailing end?
You know, O God. Your judgements are sure and You are justified in passing sentence.
All were born guilty, even from conception. Yet You have placed truth and desire for truth within each of us. We have an inner need to worship and only You are worthy.
Are the leaders capable of the wisdom from above? Would they acknowledge it? Or are they past the point and given to delusion that they are god? Have mercy.
For those who would hear You, cleanse them, wash them, that they may be whiter than snow. Open their ears that they may hear the sound of joy and gladness that only You can offer. Must their bones be crushed that they may see Truth? Then let it be so.
Align our hearts with Your Truth that You can turn Your face from our sins. The crimes are many. even crimes against humanity. Your humanity. Rise up O God. Save those who would be saved. Remove those who reject You.
Who would have a clean heart, if one were offered? Who would receive a right and resolute spirit? Bring those people into Your presence and don't deny them Your Ruach Kodesh.
Restore to those in You, the joy of Your salvation and uphold them with a strengthened wlling spirit. If they teach the wicked Your ways, are there sinners who would turn to You?
Rescue Your own from the guilt of shedding blood. God! God of our salvation. Lift us up.
We will sing of You gracious righteousness. Open our lips that our mouth may praise You.
We have nothing to sacrifice that has any meaning to You. There are no offereings that You need. But please receive the broken spirit from those who follow after You. Receive our chastened hearts into Your presence.
In Your good pleasure, bring prosperity to our hearts that we may be pleasing to You.
I pray for the peace of Jerusalem, when You bring all things before You.
Maranatha!
