Heavenly Father,

Some things are beyond our understanding. Who can comprehend this awesome wonder---that the God of all creation has a hand upon which He has written our very own name? Lord God, how much You love Your children! Your thoughts are higher than our thoughts; Your ways higher than our ways. We bow before You in awe and amazement for there is none like You. We owe our very lives to You. Every breath we take is by Your grace. Thank You, Father, for the height, the length, the breadth, and the depth of Your love for us.

Father, just as we cannot save ourselves, neither can we save our country. Our needs are beyond the capacity of human wisdom and endeavor, and we cannot find our way back without Your help. We pray for Your mercy, Lord. Save us from ourselves and restore us to the nation You want us to be.

Grant our precious military patriots the protection afforded by Your mighty angels. May they bear them up in their hands whenever they are in trouble or peril. Make them to dwell in the shadow of Your wings and help them to endure times of loneliness as they serve the nation they love.

May Your mighty armies defend Israel during the turmoil taking place in the Middle East. Lord, help America to support her and to defend her in good times and in bad. We pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

Thank You, Father, that we have a High Priest in Heaven---our Savior, Jesus Christ. How blessed we are to be Your people. Though we deserve no favor, yet You crown us with loving kindness and tender mercies. Blessed are You, Lord God, our King. We pray this together in the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
