Dear loving heavenly Father, Monarch of the Universe, I give thanks and praise unto Your holy name. I thank You that although our world is in turmoil and strife, You are still in control. In Lamentations 3:22-26 it says Your mercies and compassions fail not, that they are new every morning.  Oh, Father, Your Word also says in 2 Chronicles 7:14 (my fingers are on the verse, Father) if Your people, who are called by Your name, will humble themselves and pray...and turn from their wicked ways, then You will hear...and will forgive, AND heal their land. I am only one person, but my name is Christian. I am named after Your Son, JESUS CHRIST, and in His name I humbly bow before Your throne by faith.  Like Daniel (9:3-19) I pray, O LORD, incline Thy ear and hear; open Thy eyes and behold our desolations. My country, the land, Father, and the people need Your divine healing touch. I am asking for Your blessing, Father, as You alone know the end from the beginning. Save us from pride, arrogance, anger, and jealousy of others. Help each of us to remember our true enemy is satan and his cohorts, not the people they've induced to use. Send Your HOLY SPIRIT to rebuke satan and his cohorts from oppressing peoples minds, and to bring an atmosphere of heavenly light and peace to us now. Thank You, Father, for hearing and answering my prayer, In JESUS' name.
