Our nation is facing unprecedented uncertainty. Health, finances, politics—every aspect of life seems to be hanging in the balance. Each solution put forward seems to raise new questions. Yet there is one source of true hope and healing, and that is Almighty God. He has promised, “If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land” (2 Chronicles 7: 14). Please join me in praying for the future of our nation and searching the Scriptures for godly wisdom.
A Prayer for America
Dear Father,Living in uncertain times, You are a certain God.
Seeing turmoil all around us, You are the peace within us.
And though the future may seem dim, You are the Light that illuminates our path forward.
Make us one nation under God!
May we remember the high cost that was paid to live in one nation, a nation under God. May we not be fractured by politics or pettiness, but stand together, as an indivisible people, ready to face the challenges of our future. May we graciously live within the freedom and liberty endowed to us by our Creator. And may we seek justice for all—no matter their race, color, or creed.
Make us one nation under God!
Though imperfect, let us become a more perfect union.
Sometimes divided, let us learn to live indivisibly. And at times ungrateful, let we, the people, be grateful for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
In You, God, we trust to heal the wounds of our past, give us strength to endure the trials of today, and provide guidance to live together in a more peaceful tomorrow.
Make us one nation under God
May Your Word direct us,
Your promises keep us,
Your power protect us,
And Your purpose, restore us.
May our courage propel us,
Love define us,
Humility constrain us,
And faith unite us.
Make us one nation under God!
Father, we are blessed beyond measure.
Thankful beyond words.
And hopeful beyond imagination.
Make us one nation under God.
One nation under God.
Amen.
