Godliness makes a nation great,
but sin is a disgrace to any people.
Proverbs 14:34 NLT
***
“Father,
We come before You with a heavy heart,
burdened by the divisions that plague our nation.
We lift up our divided country to You,
knowing that You alone can heal and restore what is broken.
Help us, Lord, to find unity and reconciliation in the midst of our differences.
We pray, Lord, that You would infuse us with a spirit of humility,
empathy, and understanding,
enabling us to bridge the divides that separate us.
Grant us the wisdom to listen with open hearts
and the courage to seek common ground.
Lord, heal the wounds of prejudice, hatred, and mistrust
that have caused such division among us.
Replace bitterness with forgiveness,
anger with love, and division with unity.
Help us to see one another through Your eyes,
recognizing the inherent dignity and worth of every individual.
May we be instruments of reconciliation and healing,
seeking peace and understanding in our words and actions.
Help us to build bridges that bring us closer together as a nation,
that we may once again be “one nation under God.”
In the holy name of Jesus we pray,
Amen.
***
The humble will see their God at work and be glad.
Let all who seek God’s help be encouraged.
Psalm 69:32 NLT
