Sovereign Lord, I pray in Jesus’ name that you will write your words on my heart and on the hearts of ______________________. I pray that you will draw us to come into your presence and to present ourselves to you. May you come down and stand with us and proclaim your name to us. I pray that you will pass in front of us and reveal yourself to us as the compassionate and gracious God. We praise you that you are slow to anger and that you abound in steadfast love and faithfulness. Please show yourself to us as a God who maintains your love to the thousandth generation. We thank you and praise you for being a God who forgives iniquity, transgression, and sin. May we understand the sobering truth that you do not leave the guilty unpunished but visit the children and their children with the iniquity of the fathers to the third and fourth generation. Please go with us, forgive our wickedness and sin, and take us as your inheritance. We praise you for being a God whose anger lasts for just four generations but whose mercy lasts for a thousand. I pray that we will obey what you command and that you will drive out of our lives all works of the flesh and Satan. Motivate us to remove idolatry from our lives that we may not worship any other god or any other thing but you. May we remember that your name is Jealous, and that you are a jealous God. Prompt us to bring to you and to your house the best of the firstfruits of our labor. We invite you to do marvels for us and our people that have never before been done anywhere in the world. May the people we live among see how awesome the work is that you do on our behalf. I pray that we will often enter into your presence to speak with you, and that our time in your presence will produce a radiance in us and on our faces that will be evident to everyone who sees us. Amen.

"There is no better way to pray according to the will of God than by praying his own word back to him. These daily prayers are crafted, as much as possible, to incorporate the very words of the Scripture."

Welcome
Never before in the history of our country has America faced a moral crisis like the one before us today. The foundations of our government are crumbling right before our eyes. Our churches are abandoning God, our families are in shambles. There is only one hope for restoration - the Lord Jesus Christ.
