Father God, we come before You at the start of this fifth week of Lent with contrite hearts. Equip us to lay on the altar all that has gone before and leave it there.
Let us walk fully forward as You make all things new. As the new springs forth, let us perceive it!
Let us encourage ourselves daily in You that we may not get entangled in the things of our worldly circumstance. Though we have sowed in tears let us reap in rejoicing as we follow Your Kingdom way in our lives.
Anoint us as we forget what lies behind to continue in pursuit toward the goal of our upward calling in Christ Jesus!
Where relationships are broken, let us bring reconciliation.
Give us wisdom and discernment to be Your ambassadors to bring Your Kingdom to earth as it is in heaven “for such a time as this!”
Now is the time. We are your people. Open our ears to hear and follow what the Spirit of the Lord would direct in Jesus’ mighty name.
Amen and Amen.
Pray for America:
“If My people, who are called by My name, will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.”
2 Chronicles 7:14
For our Nation we pray in accordance with 2 Chronicles 7:14. Let us each come humbly before You with repentant hearts and seek Your face that You will hear from heaven and heal our land.
Let us stand strong in Your grace.
Let us lay down our weapons of division.
Let us unite to arise as Your Army to take back the territory.
Let us press forward in the name of the Lord.
We pray this in Jesus’ mighty name.
Amen and Amen!
It Is Never Too Late!
If you have not yet made the decision to accept Jesus Christ into your heart, do it now. Do not wait another minute. Speak to Him from your heart (for it is always a heart issue). Tell Him you have fallen short in your life. Sincerely apologize for your sins. Ask Him to cleanse you and come into your heart and be Lord over your life. From this moment forward, let His Spirit guide you along the narrow road that leads to everlasting life.
