By Franklin Graham, 2010 Honorary Chairman
Lord,
We are thankful for your abundant blessings You have bestowed on America. Our forefathers looked to You as Protector Provider and the Promise of hope. But we have wandered far from that firm foundation. May we repent for turning our backs on Your faithfulness.
We pray that this great nation will be restored by Your forgiveness. From bondage, You grant freedom. Through Your own sacrifice, You offer salvation. From the state of despair, You offer peace. From the bounties of Heaven, You have blessed – not because of our goodness – but by Your grace.
You have given us freedom to worship You in spirit and in truth as Your holy Word instructs. May our lives honor You in word and deed. May our nation acknowledge that all good things come from the Father above.
President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed that our nation should set apart a day for national prayer to confess our sins and transgressions in sorrow, “yet with an assured hope that genuine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon … announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the Lord.
“We have vainly imagined in the deceitfulness of our own hearts, that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and nature of our own … we have too self-sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God who made us! It behooves us then … to confess our national sins and to pray for clemency and forgiveness.”
Help us to pray earnestly for our president and leaders who govern, that they will humble themselves and seek Your guidance so that everything we do will shine the light of Your glory in a darkened world.
May our prayers as a people and a nation be heard and blessed for such a time as this. We make this plea in faith, believing in the mighty name of Jesus our Lord.
Amen.FOR MORE on each of these prayers below, visit HERE with the Presidential Prayer Team:

I pray that God will keep our military personnel safe wherever they may be. I pray God touches the hearts of many through the Holy Spirit. I pray our people turn to God and not to violence. I pray God will listen to His people and I ask all these things in the name of Christ Jesus. Amen
Heavenly Father...to whom all authority belongs, we come before You on behalf of our nation and individually to plead Your mercy & Your forgiveness! Lord as the song below this says, "if we ever needed You...Lord, it's NOW..." My heart aches as I look at the failings of our nation and the liberals that desire to quench the spirit of our nation united in prayer! I am so thankful that we are still able to PRAY whether or not the Pentagon accepts it or a court judge says it's unconstitutionally. We need to preserve our religious freedom & exercise our right to PRAY & we must PRAY daily for our leadership and people defending our nation.
Father, protect us as a nation and our religious freedom & prayer! Save us Lord and bring our nation to their knees and repentance! I agree with my dear sister above's prayer and ask that we would turn our hearts to God humbly as a nation and that Your Spirit would move & rise up within the church!
So many needs and we indeed must turn from our wicked ways & hear from God! Be with us as we come before You on the National Day of Prayer and may many sign the petition with the Presidential Prayer team! It is time to defend our Christian nation and roots! This nation was established on principles and for religious freedom! God bless America! Many of us love You Lord & desire that You reign in our hearts and in our nation! In Jesus Name we pray and believe and thank You for the people who cried out in prayer today and each day.
Dear heavenly Father, hear our prayers.Our nation deseparately needs You. Surround us with Your love and protection. Be near to us daily, keep the enemy far away. We love You Father. Amen
