  Speaker 1: I am Sherry Mackie. It is time for us to
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: go to God in prayer, and as always I ask
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: that you join along with me in prayer. And today
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking about today is the fourth of July. Today
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: is Independence Day, a day we celebrate freedom, but we
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: know that freedom is not free. So thank you to
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: our military personnel. We appreciate you. But today I want
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: to pray for our United States of America. Almighty and
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: Sovereign God, we come to you today in the name
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: of Jesus. We lift up the United States of America.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: Not in pride, God, We've had enough of that. But God,
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: we come to you in desperate dependence on you. You
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: are the Lord of nations. You are the king above
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: every king. You are the righteous judge of all the earth.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: And today, Lord, we cry out on behalf of this land,
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: from the mountains to the valleys, from the cities to
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: the country. God, let your presence sweep across this nation,
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: touch every heart. God, look in and move in every home,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: every system, every soul. God, we ask you to stretch
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: out your hand of mercy and bring yeeling to a
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: divided and wounded and weary land. Lord God, we repent
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: for the ways we've turned away from you. Forgive us
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: God for idolatry. Forgive us God for injustice. Forgive us
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: God for pride and perversion in our land. Forgive us
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: for choosing politics over your principles. Forgive us God for
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: choosing comfort over conviction. Forgive us for being more loyal
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: to our flags and to people than to your cross.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: But God, you said in your word in Second Chronicles
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: seven fourteen, if my people who are called by my
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: from heaven. Then I will forgive their sin. Then I
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: will heal their land. Thank you for healing our land. God.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: We're here today, your people on our needs. God. We
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: ask for your healing, not just in our bodies, God,
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: but in our hearts, in our spirits. God. We pray
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: for justice to roll down like waters, and righteousness like
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: a mighty stream. We lift up those in authority, our president,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: our congress, our governors, our local leaders. God, let them
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: be surrounded by godly counsel. Let them make decisions aligned
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: with your will. For your people. Raise the bold voices
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: of truth and pullpits in schools, in boardrooms, in the media. God,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: let revivals start in the church and overflow into the streets.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: God tear down every stronghold of hate, every stronghold of fear,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: of division and corruption. God replaced them with truth, with love,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: and with unity and righteousness. Lord Jesus, protect our children. Lord,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: protect our schools, our communities. Our church is got our borders.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Bless the military. God bless the first responders and every
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: person who puts their lives on the line for the
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: good of others. Heal the wounds of racism. God, poverty, violence,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: and addiction that plague your people. Shine your light where
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: darkness has tried to reign. Let your spirit fall fresh
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: on this nation. Let the winds of revival blow from
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: coast to coast. Let the United States once again become
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: a nation's who's God is the Lord. You are our
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: only hope, our firm foundation, our hiding place in the storm.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: So we say, God, bless America, not just with prosperity,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: but with purity, with holiness. God, not just with security,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: but with the spiritual awakening and revival. God, not just
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: with success, but with surrender to You. We declare that
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: Jesus is Lord over these United States of America. And
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: when you've begun, God, you are faithful to complete in us.
