Holy Spirit, please help us in our
distress. Our precious nation has been invaded by evil.
We don’t even know what we should pray or how we should pray. All we can do is bow, palms up, feeling your grief for hurting people. Longing to feel your love. Needing your mercy.
We don’t even know what we should pray or how we should pray. All we can do is bow, palms up, feeling your grief for hurting people. Longing to feel your love. Needing your mercy.
Please pray for us with your
groanings that can’t be expressed in words. Plead for us. Plead for our nation.
Plead for comfort for today’s victims and their families. For terrified
spectators. For citizens traumatized by pictures streaming across television
screens. For innocent unsuspecting children.
We confess that we have sinned. Forgive
us for turning our backs and waving you off. Please open our eyes to see the
path back to you. You are our only hope.
We pray this in Jesus’ name, amen.
Romans 8:26 And the Holy Spirit helps us in our distress. For we don’t even know
what we should pray for, nor how we should pray. But the Holy Spirit prays for
us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words. And the Father who knows
all hearts knows what the Spirit is saying, for the Spirit pleads for us
believers in harmony with God’s own will. NLT
