PM#0541 Unite Our Countriy's Heart



PM#0541
Unite Our Country’s Heart
Psalms 86:11-12

There is a saying that goes, United we Stand, Divided we fall. 

In Psalms 86:11, the Psalmist asked the Lord to unite his heart.  That was the Lord moving him to pray that his heart would be united.

Hearts can be divided.  The heart of our country right now is seriously divided.  Perhaps we should consider doing as the Psalmist did, and ask the Lord to unite the heart of our country.  Such a request takes humility on our part, and it also begins with asking the Lord to unite our personal heart.

Here is a prayer to consider:  Father, we humbly come to you asking that you help unite the heart of our country, beginning with my heart.  In Jesus’ Name, Amen.


Reflection Questions:

Why is humility important in our requests to the Lord?

Can Man fix the divided heart of our country?

In the Early days of our Nation, did leaders ask the Lord’s help when serious problems arose?  If so, what was the result?

Why should we ask the Lord to unite our personal heart, at the same time we ask Him to help unite the heart of our country.
