Seeking the Righteousness of His Kingdom
Seeking God…..to Hear of Our Confession of Unrighteousness
As Daniel, we identify with the sins of our people, Lord. Please forgive us for devaluing life, for not defending the defenseless. Thank you Lord, for hearing our cries for our city, for forgiving us, for giving us new opportunities to speak the truth in love.
We pray today for those in the valley of decision:
"Should I keep this baby?
Who will support me?
Will I be able to finish college?
Adoption??
What will people think?
Can I just get back to life as it was before all this by taking a few pills?"
Lord, speak to their hearts. Give them your vision for their life and the life of this child. Help the Daddy's, Lord. You've called them to defend their children. Awaken that warrior spirit in them to give them courage to stand for the life of their child. Send these moms and dads people who will encourage them, who will stand by them, who will help meet their needs. And give us eyes to see them, Lord, not to judge them, but to lovingly share in their struggle, to speak hope into their lives by the power of your Holy Spirit.
This we pray, in Jesus' name. Thank you for hearing us, Lord, and for your amazing answers. We declare: Jesus, be glorified in this city of refuge.
