Declaration & Prayer for San Marino
Father, we declare your love over San Marino and every person who lives there! We pray that the good news of your love expressed through the precious gift of your beloved Son, Jesus Christ, might reach every person in this state.

May there be an awakening of your goodness in the hearts of those who do not yet believe so that they could be born again into your Kingdom. Father we ask that you would also strengthen every believer in San Marino and pour out a greater revelation of your love into their hearts by the power of your Holy Spirit today so that they would truly know they are your sons and daughters.

Thank you Father that you love every person in San Marino and it is your desire for each one of them to find their way home to your heart through the life of your beloved Son. We declare once again that our Father loves San Marino!

In Jesus' mighty name we pray.
Amen
