Pray for the Healing of your Nation’s Unhappy Divisions and Success Against your Nation’s Enemies

Intercession 5.12 | NASB

For the healing of my nation’s unhappy divisions and the making up of its breaches.

For the divisions that are among us, there are great searchings of heart; Judges 5:16(NASB) for there are three against two and two against three in a household. Luke 12:52(NASB) But is the breach as vast as the sea, which cannot be healed? Lamentations 2:13(NASB) Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why then has not the health of the daughter of our people been restored? Jeremiah 8:22(NASB) Lord, heal the breaches of our land, for because of them it totters. Psalm 60:2(NASB)

I beg in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ that there may be no divisions among us, but that we may be made complete in the same mind and in the same judgment. 1 Corinthians 1:10(NASB)

Now may the God who gives perseverance and encouragement grant us to be of the same mind with one another according to Christ Jesus, so that with one accord we may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Romans 15:5-6(NASB) and promote the common salvation. Jude 1:3(NASB)

Lord, keep us from judging one another and regarding one another with contempt, Romans 14:10(NASB) and give us to pursue the things which make for peace and the building up of one another; Romans 14:19(NASB) that living in love and peace, the God of love and peace may be with us. 2 Corinthians 13:11(NASB)

Let nothing be done from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind let me regard others as more important than myself; Philippians 2:3(NASB) and grant that my gentle spirit may be known to all men, because the Lord is near. Philippians 4:5(NASB)

For victory and success against my nations’ enemies abroad who seek its ruin.

Rise up, O LORD! And let Your enemies be scattered, and let those who hate You flee before You, but return, O LORD, to the myriad thousands of Your Israel. Numbers 10:35-36(NASB)

Give us help against the adversary, for deliverance by man is in vain. Through God let our forces do valiantly; yes, let God Himself tread down our adversaries, Psalm 60:11-12(NASB) and make them like dust with Your sword and as the wind-driven chaff with Your bow. Isaiah 41:2(NASB)

Let us be a people saved by the LORD, as the shield of our help and the sword of our majesty; Deuteronomy 33:29(NASB) and make our enemies sensible that the LORD fights for us against them. Exodus 14:25(NASB)

Those who risk their lives for us on the high places of the field, Judges 5:18(NASB) train their hands for war, and their fingers for battle; Psalm 144:1(NASB) give them the shield of Your salvation, and let Your right hand uphold them, Psalm 18:35(NASB) and cover their heads in the day of battle. Psalm 140:7(NASB)

Intercession 5.11 | NASB

For the success of all endeavors for the reformation of manners, the suppression of vice and profaneness, the support of religion and virtue, and the bringing of them into reputation.

O let the evil of the wicked come to an end, but establish the righteous; for You are the righteous God who tries the hearts and minds. Psalm 7:9(NASB) Spirit many to stand up for You against evildoers and to take their stand for You against those who do wickedness. Psalm 94:16(NASB)

Let the Deliverer come to Zion and remove ungodliness from Jacob; Romans 11:26(NASB) and let the filth of Jerusalem be washed away from its midst, by the spirit of judgment and the spirit of burning. Isaiah 4:4(NASB)

Let all unrighteousness shut its mouth; Psalm 107:42(NASB) and let the infection of that plague be stayed by executing judgment. Psalm 106:30(KJV)

Let those who are striving against sin never grow weary or lose heart. Hebrews 12:3-4(NASB)

Remove the unclean spirit from the land, Zechariah 13:2(NASB) and give to the peoples purified lips, that all of them may call on the name of the LORD. Zephaniah 3:9(NASB)

Set Your people high above all nations, for praise, fame, and honor, by making us a consecrated people to the LORD our God. Deuteronomy 26:19(NASB)

Pray for the Continuance of your Nation’s Outward Peace and Tranquility

Intercession 5.10 | NASB

For the continuance of my nation’s outward peace and tranquility, its liberty and plenty, for the prosperity of its trade, and a blessing upon the fruits of the earth.

Let God Himself be a wall of fire around us and the glory in our midst; Zechariah 2:5(NASB) yes, let His gospel be our glory, and upon all that glory let there be a defense; and create upon every dwelling place of Mount Zion and over her assemblies, a cloud by day, even smoke, and the brightness of a flaming fire by night. Isaiah 4:5(NASB)

Peace be within our borders and prosperity within our palaces, Psalm 122:7(NASB) the prosperity both of merchandise and husbandry, that Zebulun may rejoice in his going forth and Issachar in his tents. Deuteronomy 33:18(NASB)

Set up walls and ramparts for us as security; and, to that end, let the gates be opened, that the righteous nation may enter, the one that remains faithful. Isaiah 26:1-2(NASB)

Make peace our administrators and righteousness our overseers; let violence never be heard again in our land, devastation or destruction within our borders, but let our walls be called salvation and our gates praise: Isaiah 60:17-18(NASB) Never let our land be termed “Forsaken” and “Desolate,” but let the Lord delight in us, and let our land be married to him. Isaiah 62:4(NASB)

Let our well-being be like a river and, to that end, our righteousness like the waves of the sea. Isaiah 48:14(NASB) Let that righteousness abound among us which exalts a nation, and deliver us from sin, which is a disgrace to any people. Proverbs 14:34(NASB)

Never make our heavens like bronze and our earth like iron, Deuteronomy 28:23(NASB) nor take back Your grain at harvest time and Your new wine in its season; Hosea 2:9(NASB) but pour down rain for us, the early and latter rains in their seasons, Joel 2:23(NASB) and keep for us the appointed weeks of the harvest, Jeremiah 5:24(NASB) giving us fair weather also in its season. Let our land yield its produce and the trees their fruit, that we may eat our food to the full and live securely in our land. Leviticus 26:4-5(NASB)

Abundantly bless our provision and satisfy our needy with bread, Psalm 132:15(NASB) that those who garner it may eat and praise the LORD. Isaiah 62:9(NASB) Do not blow it away, for then when we look for much, it will come to little; Haggai 1:9(NASB) but bless our blessings, that all nations may call us blessed and a delightful land. Malachi 3:10-12(NASB)
