40 Days to Save America: Day 11

Lord God, as we humble ourselves in prayer, and seek You and turn from our wicked ways, we thank You for Your promise to hear, to forgive and to heal our land. In the spirit of humility, we ask You to open the hearts of Americans and draw us to seek You and Your purposes above all else.

We humbly ask You to remove our fabrications of who You are, and for You to reveal Yourself to us.

Almighty God, create in us hearts to please You and bring You honor. We pray that we Americans will honor You in speech, and resist abuses of Your name.

In Jesus’ Name we pray.

Amen.
