PRAYER FOR OUR NATION

Heavenly Father,

We come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance. We know Your Word Says, “Woe to those who call evil good,” but that is exactly what we have done. We

have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values. We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery. We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare. We have killed our unborn children

and called it building self esteem.

We have abused power and called it politics. We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition. We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of

expression. We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.

Search us, Oh God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin and set us free.

Amen!

* This prayer was reported to have been aired on the Paul Harvey radio program, "The Rest of the Story", and received a large response to the commentator's program.   May God bless America!  For it is God alone who is able to urge us forward in humanitarian good will, peace, and prosperity.
