A prayer for our County and our people
Lord God Almighty, as we pause to reverence
and honor your name, acknowledge your power, and to thank and praise you for
the salvation you have available for those of us who have asked for your
forgiveness of our sins, we again renew
our request for forgiveness this day.
Be in our presence today as the guiding force of truth and hope, and in
response to our petitions deliver us from evil people and evil events, and
surround us with Godly people. Protect us in our hour of need and let us each
help others who need assistance in their time of trial.
We pray for our county. Times are hard for many and
many have had to leave. You have seen the affliction and we pray that you will
soon provide the answers and direction. Bless Mingo County and our people Lord
with your favor. Bless our people Lord with wisdom and knowledge and
understanding and your unmerited favor so that we may prosper as a favored
people in your sight. Through the leaders you allow to govern, turn our county
and people into the blessed path of righteousness and away from all
unrighteousness.
We surrender our futures into your divine hand and
ask that you lead and we shall follow.
Blessed be your name for you are worthy to receive
glory and honor and praise because you have created all things. And all said.
Amen
