Prayer of Repentance

Prayer of Repentance                                                                                                6.28.15

2 Chronicles 7:14 ... and My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

Lord Father, I humbly & boldly come before Your throne to ask for Your forgiveness for my sins, not just my sins, but those who have gone before me, the sins of past generations and our forefathers. 

Lord, please forgive us as we have failed, gotten lazy & complacent.   Forgive us for not upholding & boldly proclaiming Your Word.

Father, please forgive us for allowing the enemy to blind us and keep us from doing what You sent us to do. 

Please forgive our churches for becoming more concerned with money & attendance than discipleship.  Please forgive us for watering down Your Word in order not to offend anyone and to increase attendance.

Please forgive us for the sins committed against You.  Please forgive us of adultery, physical & spiritual, forgive us for perversion, and for sweeping it under the rug.  Please forgive us for not upholding the covenant of marriage within the Body of Christ.

Lord Father, please forgive us for shutting out sinners, forgive us of having judgmental self-righteous spirits within the Body of Christ.  

Please forgive us for having pride, stubbornness, arrogance, and rebellious spirits.  Please forgive us for our lack of humility and trying to do Your work in our own strength and on our own terms.

Please forgive us for not fulling submitting to You, forgive us for the walls that we have built up around our hardened hearts.

Lord Father, please forgive us for becoming so easily distracted.  Please forgive us for not going out bold as a lion, please forgive us for not being Your trumpet, Your hands & feet.  Please forgive us for allowing our fire to become a smoldering ember.

Most of all Father, please forgive us for not becoming totally immersed in You, in Jesus, and in the Holy Spirit. Forgive us for not being totally saturated in Your love.

Lord Father, I pray for Your mercy, Your mercy for Your children and our nation.  I pray that we are restored, that we will shine brighter than ever.  That blinded eyes and deaf ears are opened.  Lord Father, I pray that I am completely saturated in Your love, that I see Your visions and hear Your call every minute of every day.  

All My Love -

In Jesus’ name – Amen.
