Have you ever been moved to tears or significant action simply by listening to someone pray? Way too often prayer offered out loud in a public setting can be anything from a sermon to a political speech or even a rebuke of something or someone. Down through history the prayers of some people have made it into the Biblical record and one of those is found in Ezra 9. It’s a powerful, repentant, humble, instructional prayer which poured out of Ezra’s broken heart. He was overwhelmed, ashamed for the failure of Jerusalem leaders. It’s also a prayer seeking God’s mercy and guidance in the middle of a crisis.
