Numbers 35:33-34 (New International Version)
” ‘Do not pollute the land where you are. Bloodshed pollutes the land, and atonement cannot be made for the land on which blood has been shed, except by the blood of the one who shed it. Do not defile the land where you live and where I dwell, for I, the LORD, dwell among the Israelites.’ “
O Lord,
Native American and European settlers alike have defiled the beautiful land of Montana by broken covenants, idolatry, bloodshed, and immorality. Have mercy, Lord. Have mercy.
Raise up spiritual leaders and government leaders among the Native Americans and the European descendants who will seek You with all of their hearts and souls and find You. Release the Blood-covered Covenant Promises of the Kingdom of God into every sector of society in Montana. Amen.
Deuteronomy 4:29
Dear Holy Father,
These people have lived under bitter curses, curses pronounced upon them by others and the curses they have pronounced,
They have lived in terrible desolations…of poverty, shame, hoplessness and despair, bondage pf hatred, resentment, unforgiveness, sin, disease and addictions far too long.
Shine Your holy face into these reservations that have become ghettos and prisons.
Raise up among them, men and women, children and youth with circumcised heart, eyes, ears, lips…with Your Word burning within them, with Your power to preach the Gospel to the poor, deliverance to the captives, sight to the blind and the acceptable year of the Lord.
Cut them free from all bondage, from the power of sin and death. Help them to renounce all evil, to repent of sin, to become reconciled to You, spirit, soul and body.
Lord, let a revival, a great spiritual awakening begin like a prairie wildfire on these reservations that will spread across this nation and around the world. You have said you choose the weak, base, poor, dishonorable, empty…those the world rejects, You fill with Your own glory for Your purposes.
Glorify Yourself within and among these poor downtrodden, hopeless people…make them rich, strong, true, loving, life-filled, beautiful, joyful, peaceful…holy unto the LORD. Build them up to be a glorious temple of worship in Spirit and in Truth. Spread Your holy Love and let it shine among them for all the world to see and know that You, The Living God are True, Real and Holy.
In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen
