Praying For The Nations and for the poor – 21 Nov 2008

Racism We pray for India, Germany, United States, United Kingdom, Japan, the African continent, Australia, and the rest of the world. Father, today we specifically lift up the nation of Japan to You. The oppression and pain that they have caused towards neighboring nations have left scars and wounds that date back generations. Father we claim victory and complete healing from what happened in WWII. We pray that neighboring nations would seek complete healing that can only come from the Lord. We pray that Japan and its people would learn to repent. Without repenting, this nation will continue to walk in its curse. Today O Lord, we pray that our prayers would be heard. We pray that Japan would be freed from its past. Most of all though, we pray for the generations to come. May they grow up with complete restoration and healing from its past. God you are in control and we pray that Your glory would shine through this nation right now. In Jesus name we pray, amen. Psalm 9:9 The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. © 2008 Shaun Lee

Today we pray that You O Lord would break the walls that separates the poor from the rich, the walls that divides social classes, and religious barriers. Help us open our eyes Father and recognize that these are small frills in life. You have a bigger and greater plan. If the Palestinians and Jews stopped fighting those resources could go into providing better education for the youth. However, till today they are fighting over ancient reasons. God almighty open our eyes. Help us see, help us hear, and help us know that Your glory and purpose is far greater than our own desires. Far greater than war, far greater than division. In the name of Jesus we pray that the poor will begin to break barriers, break down the walls, and in Jesus name we pray that You Lord Jesus would be the bridge that unites. Where we have fallen short. Where we have been blind and useless. Forgive us Father. We pray that our prayer would be heard across oceans, through the walls and mountains that hide evil. God today, You are going to shake down and bring down evil. The battle has already been won. Let us rise and claim our victory. In Jesus name we pray, amen. Proverbs 17:9 He who covers over an offense promotes love, but whoever repeats the matter separates close friends.
