The Spirit makes intercession for us.
Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. (Romans 8:26)
Dear great and awesome God, You are faithful and merciful toward those who love You. You are most high and all-powerful, great and glorious Lord. All our praise is Yours, all glory, all honor and all blessings are Yours. All strength and power come from You. To you alone our praises belong, and we are not worthy to pronounce Your Name.
Father, we bow our heads before you and we confess that we have forgotten that we and our nation are yours. We have gone on with our lives as if there was no God and we have fallen short of desires. We ask your forgiveness today Lord, and we ask for your strength, wisdom and protection.
We thank you Lord for all you have provided despite our lack of honor and commitment to you. We know Father; all we have is what You have provided. All our great nation has become is because of your grace. Thank you Lord for the presence of Your Spirit who continually helps us to conquer our weaknesses and our enemies. All things are possible through You, Father, Son and Holy Spirit and nothing is possible without You.
Father we ask today with open hearts and we pray to You Father through Your Son that we as a nation will humble ourselves in Your presence. We thank you for Your forgiveness. Dear Lord please strengthen us to live with purpose and please empower us to serve you. Father, please heal our land. Father, please protect and bless us on this election for our beloved nation.
We ask all these things through Jesus Christ our Lord, AMEN.
