We pray for our leaders on every level, both Godless and God fearing. Oh God, have mercy upon us.
We pray for churches that they would be filled with the fiery truth of Your unchanging Word. Oh God, have mercy upon us.
We pray that our homes would be known by our unwillingness as Christians to live an uncompromising life. Oh God, have mercy upon us.
We pray that our children would receive the unquenchable legacy of faith that is theirs, by trusting in Christ, that they would run to receive the prize. Oh God, have mercy upon us.
May we lift up our hearts in a cry for those outside of our borders who have yet to see Christ, the hope of Glory. May He be high and lifted up. Oh God, have mercy upon us.
With this being the prayer the Lord has put upon my heart, I conclude by asking you to read this blog post by Mick Antanaitis, Missions Pastor from Belmont Church, in Nasvhille, TN. He is currently ministering in Northern Iraq. His most recent post gripped my heart, and brought my thoughts and prayers to an even more focused point. Please pray for those outside of our borders who are raising up the banner for Christ in extremely difficult and dangerous circumstances. Oh God, have mercy upon us.

Yes, Lord, have mercy on us and our nation and I pray for the peace of Jerusalem and your son return.
This prayer touched my heart. It's my prayer as well.
