 40 Days to Save America

Day 21

L-rd G-d, we thank You for our founders' foresight in establishing our G-d-given right to pursue our own destiny. L-rd, give Americans the desire to realize happiness through the pursuit of virtue. We ask You to lead Americans away from the futility of chasing after false g-ds.

O G-d, we ask for freedom from addiction for our people.

We pray for an end to materialism in our nation. We ask for Your forgiveness for our foolish longings for more things rather than longing for You.

Thank You for giving us a hunger that only You can satisfy. In Yeshua’s name, Amen.

We ask that You turn their hearts towards You, L-rd. We ask that You soften their hearts, L-rd, to recognize and receive truth. L-rd, we ask that You grant them the understanding and knowledge that come from the fear of You. We ask that You grant them wisdom and discernment, L-rd, and that You make them bold to do what is right in Your sight. L-rd, we ask that You direct their hearts to do Your will. In Yeshua’s name, Amen.
