Lord of the Beginning and the End
I pray confidently to You because You have full knowledge of all truth. In Isaiah 59 You describe an America who has lost her way.
We look for light, but all is darkness; we walk in deep shadows. We grope along the wall like people without eyes. Today I acknowledge our iniquities: rebellion and treachery. We have turned our backs on you, inciting revolt and oppression, uttering the lies our hearts have conceived. Righteousness stands at a distance. Honesty cannot enter. Truth is nowhere to be found. Whoever shuns evil becomes its prey. Lord, I know You are displeased…where is the one willing to stand in the gap?
I stand before you willing to serve…please give me the courage and the integrity to represent You to my lost community.
AMEN
