I Heard This Prayer in My Heart to the World

Father in the Name of Jesus! Let us (Christians/Christ Followers) go out into the world and apologize for misrepresenting the Good News of Jesus Christ. Let us tell the world that YOU are LOVE and that Your Son died upon the cross for all mankind to be restored back to you.  It was never up to us to say who could be saved. It was never up to us to judge anyone for their sins because we have our own to deal with.

Let us tell the world that You are a Savior, Deliverer, Redeemer, Our Creator, and the Lover of our souls, The Truth, The Way, The Life and so much more. Let us speak blessings and not curses over people. Let us tell the joy of the Lord and where our strength comes from. Let us humble ourselves under Your mighty hand and tell of Your goodness and not our own. 

Let us tell the world that YOU are exactly what YOU said YOU are and that we have not been what we said we were or what you made us to be.

Oh God! Please forgive us for being self-righteous, haughty, close minded, judgmental, and for acting as if we have saved ourselves. We repent in the Name of Jesus!

Let us tell them of YOUR mercy and grace and how it is extended to all.  Let us tell others how we have fallen short of Your glory. Let us tell others about our shortcomings and how You forgave us.  Let us tell others about how YOU are not a respecter of people, and how we have been.

Teach us how to get back to the narrow path so that we can begin to reach the lost.  Let us preach the Good News and not twist the scriptures to suit our motives or our pockets.  Forgive us for mishandling your creation and using your people for profit.

Let us stop bickering about who is right and who is wrong. YOU and YOU alone are the Judge of all things good and evil. We don't know anything unless YOU tell us and that YOU are the Leader and not the follower. 

Please teach us how to be about YOUR business and not our own in Jesus Name I pray.

With Love in Christ,
