God is faithful,
by whom you were called
unto the fellowship of His Son,
Jesus Christ our Lord. . . .
That your faith should not stand
in the wisdom of men,
but in the power of God.
-I Corinthians 1:9; 2:5

[Faith]

Holy God,

We have been called into fellowship with Your Son, Jesus Christ, and for this we rejoice and give thanks. We were all lost at one time, but now, Father, we have been adopted into Your Family, and we are grateful that You have opened Your arms to receive us through our faith in Jesus Christ. Our faith does not stand in the wisdom of men, but in Your almighty power, Lord. We exalt You; we magnify You. We bless Your holy and righteous Name. We know that our eyes have not seen nor our ears heard, nor our hearts comprehended the things which You have prepared for those who love You.

Thank You, Father, for Your never-ending watchcare over our military men and women. We are grateful that we can bring them into Your arms through our prayers. We envision Your angels surrounding them, keeping them in all their ways. We trust in the hedge of protection You have placed around them. We thank You, Father, for all the ways You whisper Your love to them each and every day.

Lord, we cast our cares and anxieties upon You regarding the Olympic games and our athletes. Surely You will care for them as well. Thank You, Lord, that You hear our prayers for these young people who simply want to compete and bring honor to their country.

Bless Your people Israel, Lord, with Your hand of protection, with strength of leadership, and with the Good News of the Gospel. May You send forth many laborers to share the Word of God with them.

Thank You for leaving Your peace with us, Father. We live in troubled times when peace is somewhat elusive. Yet, we know that You keep us in perfect peace when our mind is stayed upon You. Blessed are You, our Faithful and Compassionate God. In the Name of Jesus Christ we pray, 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"

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.

FROM THE BRAVE, albeit weary, ill-equipped, and untrained volunteers who marched into Valley Forge on 19 December 1777 arose, with the help of some gallant friends from across the waves, the cohesive fighting force that became the United States Army, global defender of Freedom and scourge of Tyrants.



AS GENERAL WASHINGTON lifted his prayers on high in that bleak Winter, let our prayers now rise like 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 envelop 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.

HEAVENLY FATHER, Lord of the Nations, unto Your Divine Mercy we commend the souls of these valiant 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)
