Prayer: Open the Eyes of the Blind

Here’s a prayer of petition written by Michael Saward.

Prayer

“And you will be a light to guide all nations to me.
You will open the eyes of the blind
and free the captives from prison….” Isaiah 42:7

God of grace and mercy,
open the eyes of the blind,
breathe life into the dead,
release those bound by sin and Satan,
and, through your Holy Spirit's power,
may hearts be challenged,
minds convinced
and wills conquered.
In the name of Jesus the Lord. Amen.
