Today is a designated day of prayer in Kenya, from wherever we are. Take time to really reflect on the realities of this nation and lay your heart bare before the Father that He may hear from heaven and heal our land for our destiny is tied to the destiny of Afrika and we must there RISE to the fullness of God and His Word
======
Let’s raise our voices in thanks and praise for He
Is good & His love endures forever
Has given us life
Has a plan for the season
Has absolute understanding and awareness
Has preserved us this far and continues to watch over us
=====
Let’s raise our voices in thanks and praise for He
Is the shield around us; our shield and buckler
Is our glory and He lifts our heads
Has delivered and kept us alive through the generations
Is true to His word and watches over us
Is our refuge, our strengthen, our deliverer, our life & our salvation
=====
Let us raise our hearts in REPENTANCE for we have
Been unfaithful in our first love
Been unjust to our brothers and sisters
Ignored the widow, orphan & fatherless
Greedily looked after ourselves
Despised those of lower station than us
Cursed those with more than us
=====
Let us raise our hearts in REPENTANCE for we have
Stolen from our community
Ignored His ways and statutes
Loved & served other gods before Him
Lied that we love Him yet we love money more
Been driven by greed to doubt Him
Forsaken the call to share love
=====
Let us raise our hearts in REPENTANCE
Father look upon us in mercy
Have mercy oh Lord, Have mercy
Father look upon us in mercy
Have mercy oh Lord, Have mercy
Father look upon us in mercy
Have mercy oh Lord, Have mercy
=====
Father your word says if we confess our sins
Repent from the same
And turn from our wicked ways
You will hear from heaven
And heal our land
=====
Father look upon us in mercy
Have mercy oh Lord, Have mercy
For we are nothing without you
We will go nowhere without you
We are destined to fail without you
Father look upon us in mercy
Have mercy oh Lord, Have mercy
=====
For our greed and sin
WE ARE SORRY
For our selfishness
WE ARE SORRY
For our fear and doubt
WE ARE SORRY
For walking away from You
WE ARE SORRY
For our loose tongues
WE ARE SORRY
For our slanderous words
WE ARE SORRY
For our arrogance and ignorance
WE ARE SORRY
=====
Create in us a clean heart that desires only you
Renew a right spirit in us that will follow you
Renew our minds to Your word that is truth
Align our desires to yours that we would honour you
Where we thought we knew; teach us your way
Where we thought we were right; realign our thoughts
Where we felt we understood; restore our focus on you
=====
Father, have mercy on us as your people
Raise among us your remnant who will never leave your way
Raise among us a people in your image and likeness
Raise among us a people devoted to your word
Raise among us a people committed to you
=====
Father, have mercy on us as your people
For we do not know what to do
We do not know how to respond
We are broken vessels uncertain of the path
We are rudderless because nothing is working
=====
Father, have mercy on us as your people
For if you do not, who will be our guide?
If you do not how will we live from here?
If you do not, where will we go for help?
If you do not, how do we function?
=====
Father, have mercy on us as your people
Father, have mercy on us as your people
Father, have mercy on us as your people
Father, have mercy on us as your people
