prayer ping
and Amen
Thanks for the post.
Renewed prayers for all those who serve our country honorably.
AMEN and amen!
We pray that Harriet hears voices of support for her, personally, and knows that those who are pleased by her action have no personal animus towards her at all, personally.
We pray that she continues to serve the President well as his counsel.
I, too, pray for President Bush and Ms. Miers. I admire her poise and confidence and courageousness in the face of so much venom lately. I pray that this will just be a blip on the screen of an otherwise fulfilling and successful life.
And for President Bush ... Lord, I thank you for this man who has committed himself to serving You and to serving this great nation in ways that please You. I thank you for giving us such a president and I ask Lord that you would prepare another man such as President Bush for 2008. Bless W and his family, Lord; keep them strong and healthy and close to You. May W and his administration be strong and courageous to do what is right in the face of monstrous criticism. And bless them abundantly for it. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
Dearest Heavenly Father, we bring our sister in Christ, Harriet Miers before You today, asking You to heal the wounds of the vile attacks she has had to endure. We ask, in Your mercy, that she might be restored, and might feel Your presence close to her at this hour. Dry her tears and refresh her, and help her to understand that she is deeply admired for her character and strength. Thank you for her life, and the fine example she has been in this short time.
We also pray fervently for President Bush as he now must make a decision to replace her. Grant him the wisdom that he seeks from You. Guide his steps, and direct his path to a nominee who will honor You, and will honor the laws of this land, and the Constitution upon which it was founded. Give President Bush the strength to prevail as he leads us back to righteousness and integrity. We thank You, Loving Father, for his leadership and his character and integrity, and for Your mercy in giving him to us to lead America during these dark and troubling days.
Father, we ask all these things in the strong name of Jesus, who is the Christ, and we thank You for the answer to our prayers, Amen!
I'd like to add my deepest prayers to President Bush and Ms. Miers.
I came to work late this morning so I could stop at church and pray after hearing this news.
I will always live by my Grandmother's request of faith: be still and listen for God is not the author of confusion.
You have somewhat restored my faith in FR.C ...
I think the nation has missed a real opportunity with this fine lady.

Prayers are needed. Prayers are sent.
Thanks for starting this thread, TitansAFC.
God bless, strengthen, and comfort George Bush and Harriet Miers.
I join your prayer.
To all here who see this nomination as a Spiritual issue and not a political issue, i.e. that the Supreme Court is the reason this country is becoming ever more anti-God and thereby in increasing peril: I again join with you in asking God to heal the Supreme Court and trusting Him that He has heard our prayer and will attend the nomination according to His will.
To all here who sense hatred rather than love in the aggressive opposition of Miers: I join with you in asking God to forgive those Christians who, for a moment, gave into hate, chosing self-will over His will, darkness over Light - to be merciful toward them, open their Spiritual eyes, heal their pain and this land.
Good move. After we beat her into submission, we pray for her. Makes perfect sense freepers.
Amen, in the Holy and precious name of Jesus.
God bless and keep Harriet Miers. Far, far away from the Supreme Court. Amen.
Prayers for both Harriet Miers and for President Bush. They are both in difficult situations. May God grant them wise counsel.
Thank you VERY much for posting this thread.
Saint Jude, worker of miracles, pray for us.
Saint Jude, help of the hopeless, pray for us.
Amen to your prayer. May God guide the president and shield him from his enemies. May He also bless Ms. Myers and surround her with His love.
Beautiful thread, TitansAFC, thank you, and amen to your prayer.
Prayer bump.
Amen.
May all things work together for good...
This was a very tasteful thread - I'm sorry someone showed up on here to ruin it with tasteless comments and spark argument among us.
Amen and Amen!!
Prayers for Harriet and Our President's comfort and strength. May we all be humbled by her meekness and dignity during this terrible ordeal. She handled herself with the love of Christ as her champion. Lord help us to follow her example with her grace against her foes. May the Lord bless her and heal her. In Jesus' Name, Amen
Lord of Hosts, by our revelation of You in Christ Jesus Your Appointed and Approved we know You and come. Thank You that in the very hour that the enemy of men's souls thought he'd won the war, Christ Won the Eternal Victory and crushed the serpent's head under His heel! Thank You that You ever conduct this world so, that Your Work is not always what it appears. Thank You that the Called and Chosen need never fear. Thank You that Your enemies are caught in the snares their own hands have set. Thank You that in Christ we are ever-victorious and fearless, no matter the hour and no matter the trial, for when we are weak, then we are strong. Thank You that an enemy in the camp of our President, who thinks this is his greatest hour, will come to nothing. Thank You that his own arrogance will fell him. Thank You that the machinations of the masses have nothing over us. Thank You for the peace that passes all understanding, ours in Christ. Thank You that we have recourse unto Thee through The Only Begotten of The Father! Thank You that our names are written in Heaven! Thank You that nothing can touch any one of Your Called Out Ones except what passes first through Your loving hands. Thank You that all is well with our souls and that You will use this time and these deceptive circumstances to cause men to look for You. Let them seek You with all their hearts and souls and minds and find this Love in which Your Children dwell so securely. O Lord Jesus Christ, reveal the Father as only You can do! Send Your Holy Spirit in this day of great harvest to convict of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment - the ruler of this world is already judged! Amen.
For President Bush during these trying times:
Psalms 17:8-15 8
Guard me as the apple of your eye. Hide me in the shadow of your wings. 9 Protect me from wicked people who attack me, from murderous enemies who surround me. 10 They are without pity. Listen to their boasting. 11 They track me down, surround me, and throw me to the ground. 12 They are like hungry lions, eager to tear me apart – like young lions in hiding, waiting for their chance. 13 Arise, O LORD! Stand against them and bring them to their knees! Rescue me from the wicked with your sword! 14 Save me by your mighty hand, O LORD, from those whose only concern is earthly gain. May they have their punishment in full. May their children inherit more of the same, and may the judgment continue to their children's children. 15 But because I have done what is right, I will see you. When I awake, I will be fully satisfied, for I will see you face to face.
