Dear good and gracious God of our fathers and the Lord Jesus Christ all praise be to You. Our Father of compassion and all comfort, we need You now more than ever. The world is rapidly spinning out of control. For far too long the prophets have said peace, but sudden destruction has come upon the earth, there are wars and rumors of wars, earthquakes in various places, strange weather, sickness and food shortages. They have left many unprepared. You have warned us in Your Holy Word to "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits." Father may I be filled with Your power to declare transgressions, revealing sin to those who are deceived thinking their works will save them not seeing they are nothing but filthy rags. There are many in this nation and around the world who abhor justice and pervert equity Father be merciful and reveal their wretchedness before it's too late. May Your children be granted an extra measure of discernment to prepare for what is coming. Father have mercy because from the least of us to the greatest among us we have given in to covetousness, forgive us Lord. We are like sheep without a shepherd going astray. We need Your Holy Spirit to be poured out to return us to order and deliver us from the chaos that swirls around us. May we turn back and love Your name Lord and be Your servants holding fast to Your covenant. Bring us Lord to Your holy mountain and make us joyful in Your house of prayer. May we find peace in Your house of prayer for all nations. Gather us in Lord so we may dwell in safety, protected under the shadow of Your wing. Forgive us Lord we want to say we know not what we are doing but we do. Cleanse us Lord from all our unrighteousness. Be glorified in this hour of history. Amen.
