Day 14 of prayer for election, 26 to go.

SaintsThank you, Lord for your love for all the saints.

“We give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you, Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have to all the saints”, Colossians 1:3-4.

Dear Lord, We come to you with humility and prayer to the Father.  All praise belongs to you, O’God and you are the Lord of all worlds and all creation.  Father, you are the Compassionate, the Merciful and the ruler of Judgment Day.  Dear God, It is You that we worship and to You we appeal for help.  Show us the straightway, O’ God.

Father we confess our sins and ask forgiveness.  Almighty and merciful Father, we have erred and strayed from Your ways like lost sheep. We have followed our hearts and our desires too much instead of following your heart, O’ God.  We have left undone those things we should have done; and we have done those things which we should not have done; and there is nothing good in us. Forgive us Lord.

We thank you Lord for all you have given us.  You have blessed us mightily, Father.  Praise God, Praise God, Praise God Almighty.

We humbly come to You and ask for your Spirit to reach out and touch all who are hurting and all who are spiritually lost in the world.  Lord, restore their hearts and restore our hearts.  Give us the hope that is everlasting and comfort us all with Your loving outstretched arms.  Lord, we pray that we would be sensitive to the needs of all our neighbors.  We pray we would be attentive to physical and spiritual needs and willing to share Your love for them, just as you have bestowed your love upon is.

O Lord, have mercy upon us offenders of Your Word. Spare us, O God, when we confess our faults. Restore those who repent, Lord; according to Your promises declared unto men through Jesus Christ our Lord.  We pray for our nation, O’God; that we would turn from our wicked ways and return to You.  We ask for your protection and our guidance over the coming election.  We pray, dear Lord, through Jesus Christ, that we may hereafter live a godly, righteous, and sober life; to the glory of His name. Amen
