The Catholic church has been doing
this for a while now. But I do think that the time has come for us all
to weigh in on this prayer irrespective of our religious leaning. If you
are a christian (orthodox/ protestant/pentecostal) you are good to go.
If you are a muslim(shiite or suni), insert Allah where necessary. If
you are a traditional worshipper, Ogun,Agwu ozara or anu a n'agba
egbe... will suffice. Just pray:
All powerful and merciful Father,
You are a God of justice love and peace,
You rule over all the nations of the earth,
Power and might are in your hands and no one can withstand you.
We present our country Nigeria before you,
We praise and thank you for you are the source of all we have and are,
We are sorry for all the sins we have committed and for the good deeds we have failed to do.
In your loving forgiveness keep us safe from the punishment we deserve.
Lord we are weighed down not only by uncertainties but also by moral, economic and political problems. Listen to the cries of Your people who confidently turn to You.
God of infinite goodness, our strength in adversity, our health in weakness, our comfort in sorrow,
Be merciful to us your people; spare this nation Nigeria from chaos, anarchy and doom.
Bless us with your kingdom of justice, love and peace.
We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord
