Prayer Focus: California - Oh, how my soul longs for you

"Long have you been know as 'Californication',
Oh, that God would heal you and our nation !
May the 'stars' no longer guide us,
But in their place may we put Your Eternal Brightness.

It's not about a new car or toy,
Its in Your Presence where we find true peace and joy.
Oh California, quit hungering for the fleeting!
God, give California eyes for seeing -

Seeing that which is unseen
Bring them to repentance, show them their need!
Their real need is not met with fortune or fame,
For salvation belongs to NO OTHER NAME!

The name? JESUS! And to Him we cry out!
Awaken California; let there be no more doubt -
That you reign on high and that your plans will prevail
On the cross you were pierced with a spear and a nail.

Pierced for California, may they see your great love!
May they abandon the former, may You come like a flood!
Flood California with mercy and grace!
May even Hollywood become a sacred space!"

Tomorrow: Oregon or Washington...unless someone nominates another state.
