I'm going to be upfront - I'm not as good at this as the awesome prayer warriors that we have here at GAW, but I've been feeling the compulsion all day to pray over tonight's game and to invite others to join me, so here goes:

Heavenly Father, I thank you first and foremost for the opportunities to gather in person and not be beholden to worldly restrictions as we have been dealing with in the past few years. Father, I understand that many tonight are gathering at the Superbowl in a sense of worshipping this worldly distraction and they have made an idol out of this sport and event; I pray for their forgiveness, and I pray also that even with the worldly aspect of the event, that everyone there tonight be able to gather in a spirit of benevolence and comradery. Father, I pray that ANY evil that the devil and his minions might try to wreak tonight be thwarted - that there be no false flags, no violence, no scare event meant to confuse and divide us. Father, I pray in hopes that this instead becomes a chance for you to show YOUR glory and goodness; let this be a chance to break that worldly spell and let people see how gracious and good and awesome You are.

Father, I thank you also for this community of like minded frens and I pray You bless all of us and keep us safe.

In the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ, I pray.

Amen.
