 40 Days to Save America

Day 5

As you pray today for our churches, our cities and our nation, pray as you might pray for an unbelieving friend:

1. That America will want to know about a personal relationship with G-d.
2. That Satan will be prevented from blinding America from truth.
3. That America might think about why she needs Jesus to forgive her sins.
4. That America will turn from her sin and follow Jesus.
5. That America will really trust in Jesus.
6. That America will believe that Jesus is L-rd.
7. That America will hear and believe the Bible.
8. L-rd, make us brave enough to tell America about Jesus, and give us the right words.

Prayer for Leaders

"The king's heart is in the hand of the L-rd; He directs it like a watercourse wherever He pleases." Proverbs 21:1

L-rd G-d, we ask for your blessing on the lives of these leaders in our nation:

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 Jesus' name, Amen.

Day 4

Heavenly Father we give You praise, glory and honor this day as we acknowledge You, Creator of this universe, the only living G-d, and Your Son Yeshua Hamashiach (Jesus the Messiah) and His sacrifice on the cross for the sins of the world. Father we come to You in repentance for the condition of our nation because we have turned away from You.

We repent of the six things that You hate according to Proverbs 6: 16-19, as we are guilty of all. A proud look, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that manufactures wicked thoughts and plans, feet that are swift in running to evil, a false witness, and the one that is an abomination to You: he who sows discord among the brethren. Father we ask for Your forgiveness as we forgive each other.

Father, our eyes are open to the descent of America and we want to put this nation back on track with You but we cannot do it without Your help. We want Your Name to be glorified again across this land. We need Your help to elect a new administration that will acknowledge and honor You and Israel. Father, without You we can do nothing. We pray for wisdom, strength and courage.

Father, renew our strength, give us new hope and make us "one nation under G-d, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all." In Yeshua's (Jesus) name we pray. Amen.
