Passage: Micah 7:7-20

Verse: “Who is a God like you, pardoning iniquity and passing over transgression for the remnant of his inheritance? He does not retain his anger forever, because he delights in steadfast love.” ~ Micah 7:18

Prayer:

Sovereign Lord,

We come together before you to pray for our nation. We accept the truth that there may be times when we must bear your wrath because we have sinned against you. There may be times when we sit in darkness and our enemies gloat over us because we have fallen.

We pray that you will not stay angry with us forever but that you will delight to show mercy to us. We ask you to pardon our iniquity and pass over our transgression. We ask you again to have compassion on us and tread our iniquities under your feet and hurl all our iniquities into the depths of the sea.
