FORTY DAYS OF PRAYER: Day 39 - November 5, 2012

Target: Future Hope

Hebrews 12:28

Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear.

Founding Father Quote:

"The Lord will not cast off His people; neither will He forsake His inheritance. Great events are most certainly in the womb of futurity."

-Abigail Adams

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, Your Word says that Your desire for us is peace and not evil, to give us a future and a hope. Without You we have no hope. But through the blood of Jesus Christ we have been redeemed and are a people with a rich inheritance, if we will only acknowledge the One true God. America has all but kicked You out. We ask You to forgive us for that, and to restore us once again to a nation that honors You. Your Word says, "Hope thou in God." We place our lives, our country, our children, all that we are in Your capable hands, acknowledging that we are a weak people. In You, our weaknesses, You are made strong. We ask that You outstretch Your mighty arm and cover us with Your righteousness. May the bright hope for tomorrow grant us peace for today. In Jesus' name, Amen.

JUST AS DANIEL ASKED FOR HEALING AND FORGIVENESS FROM GOD FOR ISRAEL, OUR NATION NEEDS IT TOO LORD. HELP US TO REMEMBER WHERE WE CAME FROM, AND WHO BROUGHT US HERE. ABOVE ALL, BRING US BACK TO YOU, AND RESTORE OUR LAND!
