Happy 250th Birthday, America!
From Washington Heights Baptist Church, we pause with grateful hearts to thank God for His bountiful mercy, grace, and favor upon our nation.
Giving God Glory for His Goodness
As America celebrates 250 years, we recognize that every blessing we enjoy has come from the hand of a gracious God. Our nation has known liberty, provision, protection, opportunity, and countless mercies we did not earn and could never deserve.
We also confess that we are a flawed people in need of forgiveness. Our prayer is that God would humble our hearts, forgive our sins, heal our land, and grant us power to repent and walk in truth.
True freedom is found in Jesus Christ. May the Lord help us overcome sin, love our neighbors, stand for righteousness, and use the liberty we have been given to honor Him.
A Prayer for America
Lord, thank You for Your mercy upon our nation. Forgive us where we have failed You. Turn our hearts back to truth. Give us grace to repent, strength to overcome sin, and boldness to live in the freedom that is found only in Christ. May America’s greatest days be days of revival, righteousness, and renewed dependence upon You. In Jesus' Name We Pray, Amen.
