PRAYER FOR NIGERIA IN DISTRESS
All powerful and merciful Father,
You are the God of justice, love and peace.
You rule over the nations of the earth.
Power and might are in your hands and no one can withstand you.
We present our country Nigeria before you.
We praise and thank you for you are the source of all we have and are.
We are sorry for all the sins we have committed
and for the good deeds we have failed to do.
In your loving forgiveness,
keep us safe from the punishment we deserve.
Lord, we are weighed down not only by uncertainties,
but also by moral, economic and political problems.
Listen to the cries of your people who confidently turn to you,
Our God of infinite goodness,
our strength in adversity,
our health in weakness,
our comfort in sorrow;
be merciful to us your people.
Spare this nation Nigeria from chaos, anarchy and doom.
Bless us with your kingdom of justice, love and peace.
We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
PRAYER AGAINST BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION IN NIGERIA
Father in heaven,
You have always provided for all your creatures
so that all may live as you have willed.
You have blessed our country Nigeria
with human and natural resources of every Nigerian.
We are deeply sorry for the wrong use of these your gifts
and blessing through acts of injustice,
bribery and corruption as a result of which many of our people are hungry,
sick, ignorant and defenseless.
We beg you; touch our lives and the lives of our leaders and people,
so that we may all realize the evil of bribery
and corruption and work hard to eliminate it.
Raise up for us God-fearing people and leaders who care for us
and who will lead us in the path of peace,
prosperity and progress.
We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
