Call to Me, and I will answer you,
and show you great and mighty things,
which you do not know.
Jeremiah 33:3

KEYWORDS: heroes; military; nation; pray
Lord God,

We now live in a world where there is instant access to people and to information, and we marvel at all we are able to do with our technology. And yet, we have had the opportunity throughout all our lives to call upon You, to receive answers, to acquire Your wisdom and understanding, and to find Your direction. We need no phones nor computers to reach You. When we earnestly call to You, You answer us, and You show us great and mighty things which we did not know. How simple and convenient can it be for us to speak to the God Who created the universe and Who made us? Lord, so we are blessed who know You and who trust in You. So loved are we who believe in You and in the truth of Your Word.

We cry out to You, Lord, on behalf of our country. Father, we have turned away from the founding documents of our nation---those fundamental beliefs that were guided by You and established in Your truth. And now we find ourselves in the grasp of an evil force that seeks to remove our natural law of freedom from us. Help us, Lord God, for our freedom and liberty are ordained by You. Hear our cries for deliverance. Help us to repent from any ways that we have joined in the rebellion against Your truths. Return us to Your arms, Father. How great is our need for You.

Lord, we commend our military men and women to You. For Your protection, Your sustenance, Your encouragement, and Your strength. They need You every hour, just as we all do, but many of them walk in great danger. We ask You to be their shield and buckler. Make them to dwell in the shadow of Your wings. When they are ready to come home, Father, please ease their transition back to civilian life. Keep them strong and alert against all the lies of the enemy, that their mental and emotional, and physical health may be strong and sure.

Lord, help us to seek You with all our hearts. Help us to be willing to pursue Your Will upon this earth as it is in heaven. Give us the desire to host Your presence here upon this earth as ambassadors of Christ Who died for us. Thank You for so great a love---so great a gift. In the powerful 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.

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)

Amen, Faith, to every word. I particularly liked, “Give us the desire to host Your presence here upon this earth as ambassadors of Christ Who died for us”.
