Pray for Our American Heroes and Nation
January 14, 2013 | Faith

Posted on 01/14/2013 11:14:20 AM PST by Faith

Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him,
and given Him a Name which is above every name;
That at the Name of Jesus, every knee should bow,
of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
And that every tongue should confess
that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Philippians 2: 9-11

Heavenly Father,

Great are You, Lord, and greatly to be praised. We speak of the glorious honor of Your majesty, and of Your wondrous works. May we always utter the memory of Your great goodness, and sing of Your righteousness. For You are gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy. You are good to all; and Your tender mercies are over all Your works.

Father, we confess that America must repent of its moral depravity. We are delving deeper and deeper into the pit, and You are the only way out. Help us, Lord. It must start with each one of us. As individuals, help us to hold ourselves to the highest standard---that of Jesus Christ, our Lord. Help us to share the love, grace, mercy, and forgiveness of our Savior with others. Help us to remember the Cross always. Father, You have promised to preserve all who love You. Help us to speak the praise of our Lord, and let all flesh bless Your Holy Name for ever and ever. Cause America’s knee to bow and the mouths of the people of this nation to confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.

Holy Lord, we know that the help of our military comes from You. We confess that You keep our troops and that You are their shade upon their right hand. You preserve them from all evil, whether they are going out or coming in. Even forevermore, You care for them. We pray also that Your people, Israel, would be blessed with Your loving protection always.

Save us from this present evil day, Lord God. We wait for You, Lord. Our souls wait, and in Your Word do we hope. Let all of Israel hope in the Lord from now and evermore. In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

PRAYERS ASCENDING ON HIGH FOR OUR AMERICAN HEROES AND FOR OUR BELOVED NATION!



GEN. GEORGE WASHINGTON
THE PRAYER AT VALLEY FORGE

"Let Tyrants Shake Their Iron Rod"
William Billings
Mixed District Choir, Fairfax, Virginia
(Click)


In the coldest and darkest days of the American Revolution, General George Washington raised his prayers for the survival of his beleaguered Army and of the new Nation. The Lord answered those prayers, upheld his Army through a punishing nadir to everlasting glory and bestowed His manifold benefits upon the new Nation.

In like manner, let our prayers now rise lie a fountain for our Heroes in the American Armed Forces who seek to secure the benefits of Freedom on behalf of a people hungry for them. Father, look on our prayers for them with favor, guide their steps in righteousness and keep them in the shelter of Your Healing Wings. Bless and uphold them in the performance of their Mission. Through Jesus Christ, Your Son, with the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever, Amen.




SHADOWS AT ARLINGTON
God Of Our Fathers, Whose Almighty Hand
Morman Tabernacle Choir
(Click)


Heavenly Father, Lord of the Nations, unto Your Divine Mercy we commend the souls of these brave men and women who have fallen in the service of our Beloved Nation and in defense of the Freedoms we hold dear. We pray that You gather them in Your loving embrace, that You cause Your countenance to shine upon them, and that You vouchsafe their souls to dwell eternally in Your Divine Presence. Through Jesus Christ Your Son, with the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever, Amen.








Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Thank you for praying, A-G. You have been a faithful patriot for several years on FR. I remember the work you did in the Clinton years. Little did we know that was a mere training ground for our faith in this present time. God bless you for your faithfulness.
