Prayer that the saints would come to the cross and offer Christ to God for the forgiveness of this country

禱告使聖徒來到十字架,將基督獻給神,禱告求祂赦免這個國家的不道德和混亂,因其得罪了祂這位公義的神,並求祂記念我們的主耶穌死在其上的十字架,使我們可以幫助拯救我們所居住的這個國家(創八20~22,但九4~5,8~11,19~20)。

Gen. 8:20-22—And Noah built an altar to Jehovah and took of every clean beast and of every clean bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar. And Jehovah smelled the satisfying fragrance; and Jehovah said in His heart, I will never again curse the ground on account of man, for the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth; nor will I ever again smite everything living as I have done.

但九19-20 - 主阿,求你垂聽!主阿,求你赦免!主阿,求你傾聽並行事!我的神阿,為你自己的緣故,求你不要遲延;因你的城和你的民,都是稱為你名下的。當我還在說話、禱告,承認我的罪,和我本民以色列的罪,為我神的聖山,在耶和華我神面前懇求;
