O God, Almighty Father, the creator of everything visible and invisible. In the most Holy and Powerful name of your son, Jesus Christ, the victim whose death reconciled us to yourself, and who lives and reigns with you together with the Holy Spirit eternally, we glorify and magnify your name.
We thank you for the gift of this rich, peaceful, and
friendly nation; a land flowing with milk and honey. We know that many people
on earth would have loved to be citizens of this great and beautiful nation but
they are not. We know that there are many more people who probably better
deserved to be citizens of our beloved country but instead, you chose us. In
your unfathomable wisdom, you deemed us fit to be here and to be better placed
to take good care of this nation. Glory to you in the highest and forever!
We thank you for the gift of diversity of cultures, thoughts
and beliefs. We know, Father Almighty, that it is your divine Will that we may
be different and not the same in all aspects; endowing us with different talents
and gifts in order that we may complement and complete, but not to compete, one
another. That we may work together and build our nation as a people. Thank you
for our strengths, thank you for our weaknesses. May your mighty Name be
forever Glorified!
We give you praise and glory for the gift of democracy and
stable governance and systems that enable our peaceful and progressive living.
Our most loving Father, the GOD of ALL creation, whose name
we invoke always in our beautiful National Anthem, I want to pray for our
nation, Kenya, that it may even continue to prosper. That we shall look more
into what unites us as a nation, as children of the Living GOD, as members of
the family of Christ (and even together with those of us who do not invoke the
mighty name of Christ Jesus, but still believe in you and follow you reverently
as their GOD and creator). That we shall shun what divides us and instead
celebrate our diversity as a gift of nature, a gift from you. That we shall
together work, most sincerely for a peaceful coexistence of one another and be
forever mindful of the welfare of each of us.
Our Eternal Father, we pray for our country, more so at this
critical moment of elections, that each and everyone of us shall only focus on
and work for the good of this nation. That all the institutions tasked with the
process shall do their best to produce according to their mandate that would
bring glory to your name, and not work for any selfish gain. That they will be
true soldiers of your kingdom and defend only what is pure, what is noble, what
is true, what is right in your own eyes.
In the name of our Lord, Jesus the Christ, we implore you, Eternal Father, that you look with favour this our beloved nation, and help us
achieve a peaceful, credible, believable, transparent, free and fair general election and that all the contestants will willingly and lovingly accept the
true verdict of the people, greet, embrace and congratulate each other and work
together to build cohesion among the populace.
We pray for the IEBC officials that they will execute their
mandate with honesty, sincerity and integrity and that they will be children of
light who stand for the Truth and have their names indelibly inked in our
hearts as faithful servants and heroes of our nation!
Dear Jesus, our Lord, you said that whoever fights by the
sword shall perish by the sword. This, by extension means, to us, that whoever
plans evil shall be consumed by the evil itself that he/she plans. In your most
holy Name and by the power of your most holy blood, we commission that all the
forces of darkness that may be planning any evil during this trying time for
our country shall not only be consumed in their folly, but shall also be
irreparably defeated, ashamed and quickly forgotten on the face of the earth
together with their lineages and apostles. Because Kenya is for all of us and
whoever plans evil against your people belongs to the author of darkness. We
pray to you, dear GOD, our loving Father, that should their be any evil scheme
that may compromise the peace and stability of this nation, that it will not
only be unearthed in good time and ashamed, but that it will FAIL completely
and the schemers perish with it and that the people of Kenya will emerge
together singing the songs of victory at the end of it all. And we know, oh
LORD, that your timing is always perfect!
Holy Father, to you from whom comes all that is good, this
is my humble prayer and the prayer of every well-meaning Kenyan. Be gracious
to us and grant these according to your loving and divine Will in the most
powerful name of Our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
Amen!
