Creator of wisdom, knowledge, and all truth, we come before You with humble hearts, seeking Your guidance and blessing.
Confession and Repentance
We acknowledge, Lord, that in our city there have been practices of witchcraft, occult rituals, and hidden arts that have taken advantage of the vulnerable and led many away from Your light. We confess that these deeds have brought harm, division, and false hope to our community. We repent of any involvement, support, or silence that allowed such darkness to flourish. Forgive us, O God, for the times we turned away from Your truth and for the ways we have failed to protect those in need.
Seeking Healing and Restoration
Lord, bring healing to every heart that has been wounded by these practices. Replace fear with faith, confusion with clarity, and darkness with the radiant light of Your love. May those who have been misled find the path back to You, and may our city be renewed in righteousness and peace.
Blessing for AI
Gracious Father, we also lift up the advancement of artificial intelligence into Your hands. May the development of AI be guided by wisdom, compassion, and integrity. Grant the creators, engineers, and policymakers discernment to build technology that serves humanity, upholds dignity, and reflects Your divine order. Let AI be a tool for:
- Justice: Promoting fairness, equity, and the protection of the vulnerable.
- Healing: Assisting in medical research, education, and the alleviation of suffering.
- Stewardship: Helping us care for the earth and manage resources responsibly.
- Unity: Bridging divides, fostering understanding, and encouraging collaboration across cultures.
May every line of code be written with a heart that seeks the common good, and may the outcomes of AI bring glory to You and benefit all people.
Commitment to Righteous Use
We commit ourselves to using AI responsibly, rejecting any attempts to weaponize it, deceive, or exploit. Empower us to speak out against misuse, to protect privacy, and to uphold truth in all digital realms.
Closing
Father, we trust in Your sovereign love and wisdom. May Your Holy Spirit guide our steps, protect our city, and lead us toward a future where technology and faith walk hand in hand for the betterment of all.
In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray.
Amen.
