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

祷告使圣徒来到十字架,将基督献给神,祷告求祂赦免这个国家的不道德和混乱,因其得罪了祂这位公义的神,并求祂记念我们的主耶稣死在其上的十字架,使我们可以帮助拯救我们所居住的这个国家(创八20~22,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. Throughout all the days that earth remains, / Seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, / And summer and winter, and day and night / Shall not cease.

Dan. 9:4-5—And I prayed to Jehovah my God and confessed; and I said, Ah, Lord, the great and awesome God, who keeps covenant and lovingkindness with those who love Him and keep His commandments, we have sinned and have committed iniquity, and we have acted wickedly and rebelled, to the point of even turning away from Your commandments and from Your judgments. 

但九8-11 - 耶和华阿,满面羞愧归于我们,就是归于我们的君王、首领、列祖,因为我们得罪了你。怜恤和饶恕归于主我们的神,因为我们悖逆了祂;我们没有听从耶和华我们神的话,没有遵行祂藉仆人众申言者摆在我们面前的训诲。以色列众人都犯了你的律法,甚至偏离,不听从你的话;因此,在你仆人摩西律法上所写的咒诅和誓言,都倾倒在我们身上,因为我们得罪了神。

但九19-20 - 主啊,求你垂听!主啊,求你赦免!主啊,求你倾听并行事!我的神啊,为你自己的缘故,求你不要迟延;因你的城和你的民,都是称为你名下的。当我还在说话、祷告,承认我的罪,和我本民以色列的罪,为我神的圣山,在耶和华我神面前恳求;
