Praying For Your Country

Daniel shows us how to pray for our country.

I. A CRISIS LEADS TO PRAYER, 1-4.

1. Rebellion leads to sin.

2. Sin leads to disaster.

3. Disaster leads to shame.

4. Shame leads to brokenness.

II. PRAYER LEADS TO CONFESSION, 5-15.

1. We have sinned.

2. We have brought this on ourselves.

3. But, God has been faithful despite all.

III. CONFESSION CLEARS THE WAY FOR INTERCESSION, 16-19.

1. Turn away your anger, 16.

2. Again show favor, 17.

3. Act according to your character, 18.

4. Do not delay, 19.

IV. INTERCESSION PLEADS FOR AN ANSWER, 20-23.
