PRAYER FOR OUR NATION

Almighty God and Father,
In The Name of Jesus Christ, Our Lord, we give thanks and your people give praises to You for this country and its people.
We thank You for our heritage and for the freedom we have. We praise You for Your grace and Your Mercy that You have extended towards our Country.
Father, Your Word promises if we, Your people, will humble ourselves, pray and seek Your Face, turn from our wicked ways, then You will hear from heaven, forgive our sin and heal our Land. What a Glorious Promise!
We, as the Body of Christ, have sinned before You-we desire to seek Your Face and ask for Your Mercy and Your Forgiveness so that You might Restore uprighteousness in our Nation.
We desire to make intercession for our Nation; we confess our sin, our rebellion, our stubbornness and pride. We ask for Your Mercy and Your Forgiveness as a Nation, from its apathy, for cursing Your Name, for being ignorant of Your Word, for not setting our priorities aright; for allowing the exaltation of flesh, for not being good stewards of what You have Given us; natural resources, human resources, our families, our aged, our poor and needy, our young, the unborn and for being silent when Your Truths are compromised with man-made religion and traditions that have become idolatry or abominations that have filtered into false doctrine that has been taught as Your Truth.
We ask You to forgive our country for being involved in allowing crime and corruption to be rampant and forgive us for our complacency.
Lord, we ask for Your Mercy to be poured out upon this Nation, according to Your Loving Kindness, according to the Tender Mercies to blot out our transgressions.
Merciful Father, please cleanse us from our sins for we acknowledge them, and humble ourselves before You, in the Name of The Lord Jesus Christ.

We stand in agreement with Your Word and In the Name of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
We refute any satanic powers and the evil in the heart of man; we, as Christ's Body, refute any spirit of lust, greed, pride, or rebellion in this Nation and we ask You, Father God, to send forth Your angels to do battle and war in the heavens and bring deliverance from the adversary who would desire to trap and deceive us.

May a Godly sorrow that works repentance come forth in the hearts of the people and especailly Leaders in all areas of authority in our Nation.

May those who have positions of authority in this land seek YOUR wisdom in all matters and we ask that your guiding hand be upon them as they make decisions for the people and may they seek your answers and not those of man.
Father, we pray for our Nation to awake to righteousness and sin not by allowing You to be first in all things. Blessed is the Nation who has the One and Only Mighty God as their Lord.
We beg You to send forth a great hunger and thirst for Your Word to come to this Nation and a desire to get right with You, Our Creator.

Holy Spirit, please open the eyes of understanding that all might see the need of God, The Father's Sovereignty over this Country; May Jesus be uplifted in this Nation, in every area of influence in our society, Governmental, Judiciary and Educational institutions, in Industry, Commerce, Arts, Medicine, the Armed Forces, Media, Sports, Technology and Agriculture. Righteousness exalts a nation as does humility and awe of The Lord God Almighty.
May this Nation be Christ's Light to other Nations and cause righteousness to come forward as repairers and restorers.
We thank You, Heavenly Father for those You are training and preparing for places of influence.
We thank You that Your Word is published and read by the people of this Country.
We ask for ears to hear, for eyes to see and hearts to be converted by The Holy Spirit.
May You respond to the sincerity of our prayers for this Nation, for whom we intercede.
As part of the Body of Christ we thank You for Your Word, which is both Truthful and Faithful in accordance with Your Promises.

In the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ and all that He stands for, the Only Saviour, we uplift this Nation before You.

AMEN.
