Nigeria as a country has had glory among the black nations in the time past. Over the years, that glory has metamorphosed into several negative names because of the happenings within her borders and the behavior of many emigrants from the country.
At the moment, it is no news that the country needs prayers as she battles insecurities, corruption, bad governance, bad economy, etc. The country is almost never remembered for anything good these days. This is why we would be raising prayer points for the country.
- Lord, as a country we ask for the forgiveness of our sins, iniquities, and transgression in the name of Jesus. We acknowledge our evil behaviors and all that we have done wrongly, please forgive our wrongs in the name of Jesus. Let your blood wipe off our sins and make each of us clean in the name of Jesus.
