- 0:12Speaker 1: as I've been looking at the news and the various
- 0:15Speaker 1: things that have been going on in my nation, y'all know,
- 0:18Speaker 1: my heart is just grieved. And today I want to pray,
- 0:22Speaker 1: Father God, in the name of Jesus Christ. We come
- 0:25Speaker 1: before you, lifting up our nation that is in desperate
- 0:29Speaker 1: need of you and your peace. Lord, Your word tells
- 0:33Speaker 1: us in John fourteen twenty seven.
- 0:35Speaker 2: Peace I leave with you my peace I give you. Father.
- 0:39Speaker 2: We long for that kind of peace, not.

- 0:50Speaker 1: selfish ambition have gripped us. But we call upon your name,
- 0:55Speaker 1: believing that you can heal our land. Lord, we pray

- 1:14Speaker 2: Raise up leaders who fear.
- 1:15Speaker 1: You, who seek truth, who love justice, who care more

- 1:35Speaker 1: you are a God who defends the widow, the orphan,
- 1:38Speaker 1: and the stranger. You hear the cries of the oppress,
- 1:41Speaker 1: and you draw near to the broken hearted.
- 1:44Speaker 2: Lord, you are Jehovah, Jirah. You're our provider.
- 1:47Speaker 1: So please, God, provide resources, shelter, and opportunities where there
- 1:52Speaker 1: is lack.
- 1:53Speaker 2: Let justice roll down.
- 1:55Speaker 1: Like waters, and righteousness like a mighty stream, so that

- 2:16Speaker 1: that courage God that cannot be shaken, and compassion God
- 2:21Speaker 1: that cannot be faiked. Lord, keep them from arrogance and
- 2:26Speaker 1: selfish ambition, and remind them that true leadership is service. Father.

- 2:41Speaker 1: by fear. God plays a hedge of protection around our schools,
- 2:44Speaker 1: around our.
- 2:45Speaker 2: Workplaces and our hosts.
