Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true,
whatsoever things are honest,
whatsoever things are just,
whatsoever things are pure,
whatsoever things are lovely,
whatsoever things are of good report;
if there be any virtue,
and if there be any praise,
think on these things.
Philippians 4:8

Holy God,

You have set Your glory above the heavens! When we consider the vastness of all You have created, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have ordained . . . then we stand in awe of You, Lord God. We bow before You for You are Holy and Worthy of our praise. We confess that You have done great and mighty things by speaking them forth. Holy God, how excellent is Your Name in all the earth!

May we think upon You, Your Word, Your Name, and Your power. May we consider those things that are true, and honest, just and pure, those things that are lovely and of good report. Help us to focus our days on You, Lord, and to turn our eyes away from evil things. Our strength lies in our connection to You through the Spirit.

We confess, Lord, that our nation has sinned against You. Have mercy on us, Lord, for we desire repentance from such evil. We confess that we have fallen far away from You and that the current level of discourse in America is but one indication of how far we have moved from You. We ask Your forgiveness, Lord, and we ask for the restoration of this once great land.

Our military men and women need You and they need the prayer support of those whom they represent and defend. Help these precious ones, Lord, and keep them strong in Your power and might. May Christ dwell in each of their hearts by faith and may they be rooted and grounded in Your love. We pray special prayers for those military chaplains who have been severely punished for praying in the Name of Jesus. Father, reward and restore them because they have been unashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Be their Banner and Shield, their Sure Defense.

Each new day presents many opportunities for every one of us to honor You, serve You, and love You. Help us to put away worthless wastes of our time, and to spend our days in meaningful service and fellowship with You. We have but one life to live on this earth, Lord, and we ask You to help each of us to host Your presence here, so that Your will may be done on earth as it is in heaven. In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
