We earnestly hope and desire, beloved Father, that you will allow only you to be able to act, only you to be able to take dominion, and only you to be able to advise.

Father! Since you know our minds and you know our bodies, if there is anything inadequate about our minds or our bodies that are bowing down before your majesty at this time, Father, please reveal your power, and please let us become purified through your reaching out to us, and through your bringing about the work of re-creation.

We earnestly hope and desire, beloved Father, that you will allow only you to be able to act, only you to be able to take dominion, and only you to be able to advise.

Since we are worried that we might not be able to handle the responsibility and mission before you, who called us though we are nothing special, and chose us, though we are unworthy, from among the many people living on this earth, oh Father, please advise us at this time.

We know that when Moses stretched out his hand over the Red Sea, it split.

We earnestly hope and desire, beloved Father, that you will allow us to become like rods of heaven which can move as you reach out, and that you will become the rod that guides us.

Since it is already the final time when it will not do unless we march towards the battlefield, please allow us to consider ourselves and discern what place we are now. We earnestly hope and desire, Father, that you will guide us to become people who are offered as yours, and that you will allow us to become sons and daughters who are given as offerings to you in each place that we are, and in each one's position.

We earnestly hope and desire, Father, that, through our becoming new bombs of life which are thrown, you will allow a day of joy to appear quickly amid this people; that you will allow a day of joy to appear quickly amid this global village, a day of joy in which we can find a foundation of rest for you, and a day of joy in which people who had died can come back to life.

Now since we want to offer before you our disloyal minds and bodies tied into one, please bless us to be able to cast away all the elements of sin, of our own accord, and to be offered as pure minds and bodies as yours alone, and please do not allow Satan to attack.

We have humbly prayed all these things in the name of the Lord. Amen.
