Father, I come to you right now in the name of Jesus.  We plead the blood of Jesus on our lives, our families and our leaders.  Father, we claim that every curse that has been released due to the shedding of innocent blood is broken right now in every area in Jesus name.  Forgive us for being a people and a nation that has taken so lightly the lives of the innocent.  We claim over ourselves and our nation that this curse is broken.
