We plead our case beforeYou.Lord we repent that Your name is on our lips but our minds and hearts are far from You.We acknowledge that You see us and try our hearts toward You.Lord, the land mourns, the grass and herbs have withered; the wildlife and birds aredying off because of the evil in the land. We repent and turn toward You and ask You toheal our land and restore our plants and animals.Lord, we hear the cry of Your heart as You suffer anguish over having to abandon Yourpeople, surrender us - the dearest ones of Your heart to our enemies, over having totreat us harshly because of our rebellion against You – we, Your promised heritage,turning against You.We repent for being shepherd-rulers who have destroyed Your vineyard, trampled Yourvines turning its beauty into a barren wilderness and an empty wasteland. We hear theache of Your heart as You hear the mournful cry of the desolate land and barren hilltopsthat no one cares about. We repent for not being good stewards of Your land. Pleasedeliver us from the destroying armies and from Your sword.Lord, we have planted wheat and are harvesting thorns. We have worn ourselves out.We are harvesting a crop of shame because of Your fierce anger. Lord please forgive usand restore usForgive all those of us nations who reached out for the possession that you have givento Your people Israel.Help us nations to diligently learn the ways of Your people and to pray to You to undothe time when we taught Your people to pray to Baal.
