5,293WORDSIn the hallowed and all-powerful name of Jesus Christ, our sovereign Lord, and by the divine, world-altering power of His precious blood, by His supreme authority over all dominions, and through the gift of faith so graciously imparted to us by God, let this prayer be an instrument of divine exorcism. We stand in Your might, O Triune God, to cast out all forces of evil, to bind every demon, and to command Satan himself to flee. May the intricate and soul-ensnaring deceptions of the Antichrist, so chillingly foretold in the prophecies of Revelation, and every wicked device of the enemy, be dragged from the shadows into Your glorious light, exposed, shattered, and cast out from this world, from our nations, our communities, and our very hearts. And into the void left by this holy cleansing, we beseech You, O Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, to pour forth a divine infilling of Your Spirit. Let a torrent of Your presence rush into every empty space, leading all people, from the highest to the lowest, to profound and genuine repentance for the sins of pride, rebellion, and ignorance that allowed such darkness to ever take root.
As we now immerse our spirits in the profound depths of Psalm 51, let it not be a mere academic exercise, but a sacred spiritual cleansing, a divine guide that leads us into the very heart of Your being, O God. We hold fast to the stark warning of Scripture, that after a great spiritual cleansing, a void is left, and if that sacred space is not intentionally and devotedly filled with Your presence, more wicked and relentless forces can return to inhabit it. Therefore, O Lord, we pray with fervor that the world will heed this divine caution, turning away from the perilous paths of willful ignorance and defiant unbelief. In the faithful spirit of Your servant Ezekiel, having now sounded the alarm and warned the wicked, may we be free from the blood of those who tragically refuse to turn from their destructive ways, and may our own souls be found blameless and consecrated unto You.
This journey through Your sacred song, O Lord, is a holy dialogue with You, our Blessed Trinity. It is an expedition into the very core of Your divine desire for intimate, unbroken fellowship with humanity. Through the guidance of Your Holy Spirit, we seek to connect with the great cloud of witnesses, the saints and angels who worship You eternally, and to find within ourselves that precious offering You desire above all else: the broken and contrite heart of Jesus, a sacrifice You will never, ever despise.
Oh, Merciful Father, who looks upon the heart, we come before You as David did, born from a place of catastrophic personal failure, yet reaching for You. His sin with Bathsheba and the heinous murder of Uriah set the stage for this universal anthem of repentance, this blueprint for restoration that echoes through the ages. He, a man after Your own heart, shows us that even the greatest can fall into the deepest abyss, and in so doing, lights the path for our own return. We thank You for this raw and honest gift. To You, Lord Jesus, our Savior and High Priest, You are the living embodiment of God's tender mercy. Your willing sacrifice upon the cross is the ultimate and final expression of divine love, and it is only through the cleansing power of Your blood that we dare to approach the throne of grace. And to You, beloved Holy Spirit, our divine Counselor, we plead that You would reveal to us the hidden faults and secret sins within, just as Nathan the prophet lovingly but firmly revealed David's sin to him. Grant us the supernatural courage to face our own brokenness, to see ourselves as You see us. May this prayer, O Lord, be our Mizmor, a melody played upon the strings of our very souls, dedicated to You, the lamnatzeach, the Divine Leader of all creation.
Let the image of a repentant soul be etched upon our spirits, O God: a soul stripped of its royal pretense, clothed in sackcloth and ashes, its face a portrait of sorrow yet turned resolutely towards a brilliant, consuming light that breaks through the darkest clouds. Let that light illuminate the one, narrow path forward, kindling hope in the very midst of our despair. We thank You, Heavenly Father, for this sacred gift of repentance. We lift up to You all those who are lost and wandering in the darkness of their sin, that they may see this light and find their way back to Your loving, open embrace. May the story of David's complete restoration be a blazing beacon of hope for every soul that has fallen, for every heart that believes it is beyond repair.
We cry out with the psalmist, "Be gracious unto me, O God, according to Thy mercy!" We do not stand on our own merit, for we have none. We appeal solely to the very essence of Your nature: Your Chasdecha, Your loyal, steadfast, covenant-keeping love, and Your Rachamecha, the abundant and tender compassion that flows from a depth akin to a mother's womb for her child. Oh, Your mercy, Father, is a boundless and fathomless ocean. We cast the entirety of our sinful selves into its cleansing depths, trusting not in our ability to swim, but in Your loving nature to carry us and wash away our guilt. Lord Jesus, in You we find the "multitude of compassions" that alone can erase the stain of our Pesh'ai, our willful rebellions. Your blood is the divine solvent that dissolves every mark of our transgression. Holy Spirit of Grace, pour out upon us the full and unmerited measure of God's loving-kindness. Help us to simply receive the forgiveness that is so freely and lavishly offered. Let us envision Your Divine Hand, O Lord, reaching down and tenderly erasing the dark, tangled, ugly lines of sin from the scroll of our lives. As You wipe them away, reveal beneath them the pristine, glowing parchment of our original design in You. Bathe us in that warm, golden light of Your mercy, an ethereal and symbolic cleansing that makes all things new. We pray now for a global outpouring of this mercy. Let every hardened heart be touched and softened by Your compassion, and may all transgressions that fuel wars, hatred, and division be blotted out by the power of Your irresistible love. Bring healing to nations torn by strife and to every individual soul crushed by the burden of guilt. Amen.
"Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin." O Father, source of all purity and light, we desire a deep, internal cleansing, a spiritual purification that penetrates far beyond the surface of mere forgiveness. We long to be made new from the inside out. We ask You to perform the Kabeseni, the vigorous, forceful washing reserved for the most deeply stained garments, upon our very souls. Cleanse us from our Avoni, the twistedness and distortion of Your perfect will, and from our Chatati, our constant falling short and missing the mark of Your holy standard. Lord Jesus, Your shed blood is the only cleansing agent in the universe powerful enough to remove these deep-set stains. Apply it to our hearts, our minds, our memories, and make us truly whole. Holy Spirit of Holiness, sanctify us completely. Purge from us every impure thought, every idle word, and every selfish deed. Let us be those who stand willingly under a waterfall of Your pure, liquid light. Let us feel it washing over us, dissolving the darkness that once clung to us, watching it flow away into nothingness, and leaving us with expressions of profound relief and newfound purity. We pray for this spirit of holiness to sweep across the entire earth. May a holy dissatisfaction with sin arise in all people, a deep desire for a clean heart and a right spirit. We pray for the cleansing of our communities, our governments, and our institutions from every form of corruption, deceit, and injustice. Amen.
"For I know my transgressions; and my sin is ever before me." Yes, Lord, we confess with Eda, an intimate, experiential knowledge, not just a detached intellectual awareness. We own our wrongdoing before You and before the world. We will not hide our sin, make excuses for it, or shift the blame. We drag it into the piercing light of Your holy presence, for it is negdi tamid, ever before us, a persistent, haunting specter when left unconfessed. Lord Jesus, You bore the crushing weight of our sin upon the cross, yet we must still acknowledge it as our own, for in doing so, we glorify the magnitude of Your sacrifice. Thank You for taking the burden that would have utterly destroyed us. Holy Spirit, we thank You for the precious, painful gift of conviction, for Your loving refusal to let us remain comfortable and ignorant in our faults. Grant us a godly sorrow for our sin that leads not to despair, but to life-giving repentance. Lord, let us have the courage to be that lone figure standing in the barren landscape of our past, looking our shadowy failures straight in the eye, not cowering, but with a determined expression of acknowledgment, knowing that on the horizon, a sliver of Your light is already breaking through. We pray for an end to the culture of blame and accusation in our world, and for the rise of a generation committed to personal responsibility, radical honesty, and unshakable integrity. Amen.
"Against Thee, Thee only, have I sinned, and done that which is evil in Thy sight." O God, we confess the vertical dimension of our sin. While our actions have wounded and scarred others, we now understand that the ultimate offense, the primary violation, was against Your perfect, loving, and holy character. Our sin was a rebellion against Your supreme authority and Your perfect will. This confession, we pray, will vindicate Your righteous judgment, that You may be justified when You speak and proven right when You judge. Lord Jesus, as the righteous judge of all the earth, we bow before Your authority. We submit to Your just verdict on our lives, and we plead for the very mercy that You purchased for us with Your own life. Holy Spirit, burn this truth into our hearts: help us to see sin as You see it—a grievous offense against our loving and holy Creator. May we envision the divine scales of justice, perfectly balanced. On one side, we place our sin, dark, heavy, and deserving of wrath. On the other, we see a brilliant, radiant, all-consuming light—Your perfect righteousness, O God. In this stark and symbolic contrast, we find both the terror of our guilt and the wonder of Your grace. We pray for a deeper, more profound understanding of Your holiness to permeate the globe. May all people come to recognize the true gravity of sin and the beautiful perfection of Your justice. We ask for righteous leaders and just laws that reflect Your divine character in every nation. Amen.
"Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin did my mother conceive me." Lord, we humbly acknowledge the pervasive and fallen nature of our humanity. This is not an excuse for our choices, but a deep, sorrowful recognition of our desperate and absolute need for a Savior. We confess that be'avon cholalti, in a state of iniquity, we were brought forth, and bechet'a yechematni immi, in a condition of sin, we were conceived. Lord Jesus, You, the sinless Lamb of God, became sin for us, so that in You, we might become the righteousness of God. You are the divine answer to our inherent brokenness. Therefore, Holy Spirit, we ask You to do what we cannot: create in us a new nature, a new heart, a new spirit that desires righteousness and holiness above all else. We see in our mind's eye a newborn baby, so seemingly pure and innocent, yet with a faint, almost imperceptible shadow lurking in the background, a symbol of this inherited human condition. In that image of tenderness and vulnerability, we sense our own deep need. We thank You, Lord, for the glorious gift of new birth in Christ. We pray for all who are still bound by their old, sinful nature, that they may experience the exhilarating freedom that comes only from being truly born again. Raise up, O God, a generation that walks in the glorious newness of this resurrection life. Amen.
"Behold, Thou desirest truth in the inward parts; make me, therefore, to know wisdom in mine inmost heart." O God, who sees beyond every facade and into the deepest chambers of our hearts, we renounce all outward shows of religiosity that are not rooted in sincerity. We desire to be people of Emet—of faithfulness, authenticity, and unwavering truth before You. We ask You to plant this truth deep within our tuchot, what the ancients called the seat of our deepest emotions, and to make us know Your wisdom in our satum, the hidden, core place of our being. Lord Jesus, You are the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Fill us with Yourself, Your very essence, and make us wise in the hidden ways of God. Holy Spirit, our Divine Teacher, reveal to us the secrets of God's wisdom. Inscribe Your law of love not on tablets of stone, but upon the fleshy tablets of our hearts. Let us become human silhouettes with a glowing, radiant heart at the very center. From this heart, let intricate patterns of Your divine light emanate, filling our entire beings. Let the wisdom within us connect to the wisdom that holds the cosmos together, for it is Your wisdom. We pray for a spirit of truth and wisdom to flood our world. May all deception, falsehood, propaganda, and lies be exposed and wither under Your light. May all people begin to seek after the true wisdom that comes only from above. We pray for leaders who govern with unimpeachable integrity and for a society that values and cherishes truth above power, profit, and popularity. Amen.
"Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow." We come to You, Lord, asking for the spiritual purification that only You can provide. We plead, Techat'eni ve'ezov, purge us as with the hyssop that applied the sacrificial blood in the days of old, a foreshadowing of the ultimate reality. For You, Lord Jesus, are the Lamb of God, slain to take away the sin of the world. Apply Your blood, we pray, to the doorposts of our hearts, that the angel of eternal death may pass over us, leaving us cleansed and saved. Holy and Sanctifying Spirit, perform the miracle of T'chab'seni u'misheleg albin—wash us, and we shall be whiter than snow, a complete and dazzling purity that is not our own. Let us see by faith that sprig of hyssop, being used to paint a stroke of Your redeeming blood over the dark, stained surface of our souls. Witness, O our hearts, how where the blood touches, the surface becomes brilliantly, blindingly white, like freshly fallen snow under a noon sun. We pray for the cleansing power of Jesus' blood to be applied to every repentant heart and every willing nation. May the deep, crimson stains of humanity's sin be washed away, and may we all be presented before Your throne, O Father, holy, blameless, and radiant in Your sight. We cry out for revival, for a great and mighty turning to righteousness across the entire globe. Amen.
"Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which Thou hast crushed may rejoice." O Lord, we confess that our sin has brought a deep, crushing sorrow, a sense of being spiritually broken and disjointed. We long for the restoration of Your joy and Your gladness, a profound healing that reaches down into the very marrow of our being. Father, You are the source of all true and lasting joy. Speak Your words of comfort, hope, and forgiveness into the depths of our souls. Lord Jesus, in Your presence alone is the fullness of joy. Restore to us now the unspeakable joy of Your salvation. Holy Spirit, our beloved Comforter and the giver of all gladness, fill our hearts to overflowing with Your celestial joy. Heal the broken places, the crushed bones within us—Tagelna atzamot dikkita—and make us whole again. Transform us, we pray, from that broken, scattered skeleton into one that is reassembled by Your power, dancing with joyous abandon in a field of vibrant life. Let the Son shine brightly upon us, and fill us with an atmosphere of exuberant celebration and new life. We pray for a great wave of divine joy and gladness to sweep across the earth. May all who are mourning be supernaturally comforted, and may the brokenhearted be miraculously healed. We pray for a spirit of celebration and ceaseless thanksgiving to replace the global spirit of despair, anxiety, and fear. Amen.
"Hide Thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities." This is our cry, O Father. Haster panecha mechat'ai, we plead, hide Your holy face from our sins. Look upon us not as we are in our own failure, but see us as we are in Christ, cloaked in the perfect righteousness of Your Son. And Lord, V'chol-avonotai mecheh, all our iniquities, blot them out. Erase them from Your book of remembrance. We envision that large, ancient book of our lives, its pages covered in the dark, messy, ugly blots of our sin. And now, we see a brilliant, holy light shining from Your throne, and as it touches the pages, the blots begin to fade, to vanish, to disappear completely, leaving the pages clean, unblemished, and pure. We pray that the sins of all who repent would be cast into the depths of the sea of Your forgetfulness, to be remembered no more. May we all learn to live in the glorious freedom of Your complete and total forgiveness, and may we extend that same forgiveness to others. We pray for a world where reconciliation and restoration are not just a dream, but a living reality for all people. Amen.
"Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a stedfast spirit within me." We confess, O Lord, that we cannot cleanse our own hearts. We are powerless to reform our own spirits. We need a divine act of creation. And so we pray, Lev tahor b'ra-li Elohim—a clean heart, create for me, O God. We ask you to bara, to perform the same supernatural act of creation You did in the beginning when You spoke the universe into existence. Speak a clean heart into the void of our chests. And V'ruach nachon chaddesh b'kirbi—renew a steadfast, firm, reliable, and established spirit within us. Lord Jesus, as the author and the perfecter of our faith, renew our spirits and make them as unwavering as Your own. Indwelling Holy Spirit, be the source of our strength, our anchor, our stability. Help us to stand firm and unyielding in the face of every storm and every temptation. Let us be as clay in the Master Potter's hands. We yield to Your skillful shaping, forming us into a heart of pure, glowing clay. Make it smooth, flawless, and radiant with Your gentle light. We pray for this new creation to take place in the hearts of millions across the globe. May old things truly pass away and may all things become gloriously new. Raise up a generation of believers who are steadfast and unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord. Amen.
"Cast me not away from Thy presence; and take not Thy holy spirit from me." Oh, Lord, this is our deepest fear, the greatest possible loss: the loss of fellowship with You. Your presence is our greatest treasure, our portion, our very life. So we plead with all that is within us, Al-tashlicheni milfanecha—do not cast us away, do not banish us from Your loving gaze. Lord Jesus, You promised that You would never leave us nor forsake us, and we cling to that promise now as a drowning man clings to a life raft. And Holy Spirit, we cry, V'ruach kodshecha al-tikach mimeni—Your Holy Spirit, do not take from me! You are our Comforter, our Guide, our Advocate, our dearest Friend. Remain with us, we pray, and fill us afresh even now. Make us that soul clinging desperately to the solid, immovable Rock of Ages in the midst of a raging storm. Let that Rock glow with Your warm, protective light, and even if our faces show a mixture of fear and awe, let our grip on You be unwavering, secure in the midst of all chaos. We thank you for the non-negotiable promise of Your abiding presence for all who are in Christ. We pray for every person who feels distant, cold, or abandoned by You, that they would be drawn by Your irresistible grace back into the warmth and safety of Your love. We pray for a fresh, global outpouring of Your Holy Spirit upon all flesh, as promised in Your Word. Amen.
"Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation; and let a willing spirit uphold me." Sin, O Lord, is a thief. It has robbed us of the joy that is our birthright in You. And so we ask, Hashivah li s'son yish'echa—restore to us, bring back to us, the joy, the gladness, the sheer exhilaration of Your salvation. Lord Jesus, as the author of that salvation, let the reality of what You have done for us fill our hearts to overflowing. And we ask, V'ruach nedivah tism'cheni—let a willing, noble, generous, and voluntary spirit uphold us. Give us a spirit that does not serve You out of grudging duty, but one that delights and rejoices to do Your will. Transform our downcast faces, Lord. Lift up our heads and fill us with a radiant smile. Let our eyes sparkle again with renewed, heaven-sent joy. May a new sunrise break upon the horizon of our lives, symbolizing a new day and a fresh start. We pray for a great, global restoration of joy among Your people. May the joy of the Lord be our supernatural strength. We pray for a spirit of willing, joyful obedience to sweep across Your church, that we may all be known as a people who delight in doing the will of our Father. Amen.
"Then will I teach transgressors Thy ways; and sinners shall return unto Thee." Lord, let our true repentance lead us inevitably to this holy purpose. May our personal restoration never terminate on ourselves, but may it become a powerful testimony to the transformative power of Your grace. Let this be our vow to You: Alamdah poshe'im d'rakecha—I will teach transgressors Your ways. Use our stories of redemption, O Father, to draw others to Yourself. Lord Jesus, let our very lives be a testament to Your saving power, a bright light that relentlessly points others to You. And Holy Spirit, empower us, anoint us, and make us bold and effective witnesses for Christ, so that v'chata'im eleicha yashuvu—and sinners shall return unto Thee. This is the ultimate goal, Lord: reconciliation. Make us into that person who was once hopelessly lost in a dark forest, but who now stands upon a sunlit hill, pointing the way to the brightly lit path for all the others who are still wandering in the darkness. Fill our faces with Your compassion and an unshakeable sense of divine purpose. We pray for a mighty, unprecedented wave of evangelism to sweep the globe. May every believer be emboldened to share their faith with gentleness and respect, and may countless sinners be brought out of darkness and into the kingdom of Your dear Son. We pray for a great harvest of souls in our time, for Your glory alone. Amen.
"Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, Thou God of my salvation; so shall my tongue sing aloud of Thy righteousness." O Elohim, Elohei teshuati—O God, the God of our very salvation—we bring our most specific and grievous sins to You. Like David, we cry Hatzileni midamim—deliver us from bloodguiltiness, from the sins that stain our hands and consciences the deepest. Lord Jesus, Your blood was shed to atone for all sin, even the most terrible. We place our absolute trust in its power to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Holy Spirit, speak peace to our troubled hearts. Silence the accuser of the brethren and assure us of our full and final forgiveness. Release us from the heavy chains of guilt and shame. Let us see those hands, stained with the red of our guilt, being washed in a river of Your pure, clear grace. And as the stains are washed away, the water of Your grace remains utterly pure and unstained, for Your purity is infinite. We pray for this deliverance from guilt for all who repent. We pray for an end to violence, to war, to abortion, to all bloodshed in our world. And as You deliver us, we promise, T'ranen l'shoni tzidkatecha—our tongues shall sing aloud, joyfully and publicly, of Your righteousness and Your saving justice. Amen.
"O Lord, open Thou my lips; and my mouth shall declare Thy praise." We humbly acknowledge, O Lord, that even the ability to praise You is a gift that comes from You. Our lips are often sealed by sorrow, shame, or apathy. And so we pray, Adonai, sefatai tiftach—O Lord, our Master, open our lips. Breathe on us, and by Your enabling grace, Ufi yagid tehilatecha—our mouths shall declare Your praise. Lord Jesus, You have given us a new song to sing, a song of redemption, a melody of praise that will last for all eternity. Holy Spirit, fill our mouths, our hearts, our very lives with Your praises, until our entire existence becomes a continuous act of worship to You. We pray that our mouths would open, and from them would flow a stream of musical notes and glowing particles of Your light, forming intricate patterns of beauty in the air, a visual symphony of blissful worship. We pray for a global symphony of praise to rise up to You, O Lord. May every tribe, every nation, and every tongue declare Your glory. We ask for a fresh anointing upon all who lead worship, and for a spirit of authentic, passionate, heartfelt praise to fill Your Church and the whole world. Amen.
"For Thou delightest not in sacrifice, else would I give it; Thou hast no pleasure in burnt-offering." Lord, deliver us from the trap of empty religious ritual. We confess with the psalmist, Ki lo-tachpotz zevach, for You do not delight in mere sacrifice, and Olah lo tirtzeh, in burnt offerings alone You have no pleasure. We know, Father, that what You truly desire is not the smoke of animals on an altar, but the fire of a heart that is fully and passionately devoted to You. Lord Jesus, You are the final, perfect, once-for-all sacrifice for sin. Because of Your finished work, we are free from the old system of offerings. Holy Spirit, guide us in offering to God the true sacrifice He desires: a life lived in moment-by-moment, loving obedience to Your will. We turn away from the image of an altar where the smoke rises and simply dissipates, unreceived. Instead, we kneel in the foreground of our souls, with a humble and sincere expression, and we ask for the beam of Your light to shine directly upon us, showing that You have accepted our heart's true worship. We pray for an end to all forms of dead, powerless religion. May Your people everywhere worship You in spirit and in truth. We pray for a global revival of authentic faith, characterized not by ritual, but by radical love, profound humility, and a passionate, all-consuming devotion to You. Amen.
This leads us to the very heart of the matter, the central truth of this entire psalm: "The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and a contrite heart, O God, Thou wilt not despise." This is the key. This is the offering You seek. Zivchei Elohim ruach nishbarah—the true sacrifices of God are a broken spirit. So, Father, we offer to You the only thing we have that is of ultimate value in this state: our lev-nishbar v'nidkeh, our heart that is broken, crushed, shattered, and humbled before You over its sin. Lord Jesus, Your own heart was broken for us on Calvary's cross. Grant us, we pray, a heart that mirrors Yours—a heart of humility and contrition. Holy Spirit, Spirit of all humility, crush our pride. Pulverize our arrogance. Make our hearts tender, soft, and completely receptive to Your will. Let our hearts be beautifully broken, and from the very cracks, let Your brilliant, warm light pour out, illuminating all the darkness around us. We thank you, O God, that You do not despise this offering. In fact, You welcome it. You receive it as the most pleasing sacrifice of all. We pray for this spirit of brokenness and holy contrition to fall upon Your people worldwide. May we all find our way to that place of deep, honest humility before You, the only place where true grace can be found.
And flowing from this place of personal restoration, our prayer expands with the psalmist's: "Do good in Thy favour unto Zion; build Thou the walls of Jerusalem." Our healing is not for us alone. Extend Your goodness, O Father, to all Your people. Build up Your Church, make her strong, beautiful, and pure. Heitivah virtzoncha et-Tzion—do good in Your good pleasure to Zion. Lord Jesus, King of Zion, reign with supreme authority in Your Church. Protect her, purify her, and bring her to a place of unprecedented spiritual prosperity and influence. Holy Spirit, revive Your people! Tivneh chomot Yerushalayim—build the walls of spiritual protection, security, and stability around us. Make us a beacon of righteousness in a dark world. For we know that Az tachpotz zivchei-tzedek—then, and only then, when our hearts are right and our community is built up in You, will You truly delight in the sacrifices of righteousness, in our worship, our service, and our offerings.
Let us see it, Lord! Let us see a glorious, rebuilt, spiritual Jerusalem, Your Church, with strong walls of truth and beautiful temples of praise. Bathe Your people in a divine, golden light. In the center of our corporate life, upon the magnificent altar of our collective worship, may we offer up the "bullocks" of our strongest, best, and most wholehearted devotion. May the smoke of our praise rise straight up to heaven, a sweet and pleasing aroma to You. We pray for the peace of Jerusalem, both the earthly city and the spiritual body of Christ. We pray for the building up of Your Church in every corner of the world. May we, Your people, be a truly righteous and holy nation, offering up spiritual sacrifices that are pleasing in Your sight. We pray for a great, final, global spiritual awakening that will utterly transform our world and prepare the way for the triumphant return of our King.
In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, we pray. Amen.
