A Prayer For Prosperity
"To fear the LORD is to hate evil; I hate pride and arrogance, evil behavior and perverse speech."
Proverbs 8:13 (NIV)
Lord, we are a prideful country shaken at our foundations because of our failure to keep your commands. I pray your people, who are called by your name, will humble ourselves and seek your face. We do not deserve your blessing and yet, I ask it. We do not deserve to be lifted up and, yet, I ask it. Fall upon your people. Rest your hand on those who have called upon your name. Show the world your glory through your people.
