This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His Will, He hears us. (1 John 5:14)

Romans 12:1-3 Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you.
James 4:14 Why, You do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is Your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.
Mark 8:36-37 What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?
Acts 4:31 After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the Word of God boldly.
2 Corinthians 6:2 For he says, "In the time of my favor I heard You, and in the day of salvation I helped You." I tell You, now is the time of God's favor, now is the day of salvation.
Acts 16:31 Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved.
We come humbly before You in this hour of uncertainty in the United States of America. Never before has evil been so pronounced in everyday living. Your Word has given warning to those who do not follow Your precepts. We repent and ask for mercy in these last days. Through all of the mayhem may Your light shine to a lost and dying world. Today is the day of Salvation. Your Word says our life is like a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes. In what time is left, may You find us faithfully being harvesters of souls for Your Kingdom.
We pray that President Trump and Vice-President Pence, as well as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will always seek Your Will, Your Guidance. May the mutual support of Israel and the United States of America never waive.
There are those given over to a reprobate mindset and committing heinous crimes and acts of terrorism against humanity in the United States and throughout the world. . . so many Christians are being persecuted. You are the Great Physician. We pray for healing for those who have been injured in these acts of violence. We pray for their families’ strength and comfort that can only be found in You. Heavenly Father, we cry out to You for justice to be served to these evil doers and pray they repent and find Your Mercy and Saving Grace through Christ Jesus.
Father God, we pray that You will be glorified in all things. May these distressing times bring testimony of Your love and greatness . . . .and more importantly provide opportunities for witnessing for the Salvation of souls. We call for Revival in our land. . .a true awakening for repentance. Woe to those churches and church leaders who are compromising Your Word for social acceptance. . .leading their congregations astray. May the scales be lifted from people’s eyes . . . causing them to seek the truth and wisdom found in Bible-believing fellowship.
Heavenly Father, please protect those in uniform who are defending and protecting the citizens of this great country and Israel. . .let Your Hand be seen, Your Goodness honored and Your Works recognized throughout the ranks.
We pray for our country’s leaders as well as citizens who are believers in Christ Jesus to put their trust in Your Wisdom rather than leaning on their own understanding. Please place a burden on hearts to boldly acknowledge and share the message of Salvation to all.
We thank You for providing enough donors for the continuation of the FR website. May You always find us giving You all the Praise, Honor and Glory. Thank you for hearing our prayers.
In the Precious Name of Jesus, Amen!
Amen.
HOLY FATHER, see us through this darkness and help in returning to Your Light.

Psalm 141
A Psalm of David.
1 I call upon you, O Lord; come quickly to me;
give ear to my voice when I call to you.
2 Let my prayer be counted as incense before you,
and the lifting up of my hands as an evening sacrifice.
3 Set a guard over my mouth, O Lord;
keep watch over the door of my lips.
4 Do not turn my heart to any evil,
to busy myself with wicked deeds
in company with those who work iniquity;
do not let me eat of their delicacies.
5 Let the righteous strike me;
let the faithful correct me.
Never let the oil of the wicked anoint my head,*
for my prayer is continually* against their wicked deeds.
6 When they are given over to those who shall condemn them,
then they shall learn that my words were pleasant.
7 Like a rock that one breaks apart and shatters on the land,
so shall their bones be strewn at the mouth of Sheol.*
8 But my eyes are turned towards you, O God, my Lord;
in you I seek refuge; do not leave me defenseless.
9 Keep me from the trap that they have laid for me,
and from the snares of evildoers.
10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets,
while I alone escape.
Amen
Amen to your heartfelt prayer, Maudeen! Thank you very much.
Amen
Anger is poisoning this nation.
Father God, we love You and adore You. We thank You for Your Word, a reminder that You are in control. Forgive us that we slip and do not always trust You. Forgive us that we get frustrated at perceived injustice. Forgive us that we can be impatient.
Your Will be done.
Father God, give us wisdom, that at this time when evil has such a strong grip on this nation and what is wrong is called good and what is up is called down - At this turbulent time, Lord, we ask that we may not fail to be vessels for Your Light. Lord, may we shine with Your love and not fail to be witness of Your glory. Lord, at this time we ask that Your servants be reinforced with the light, wisdom, and love to be Yours.
in Jesus’ name we do pray
Amen.
Amen to every word of your anointed prayer, dear Maudeen, in Jesus Name.
Lord; we are praying for a miraculous revival in this land!
It is not enough to wring our hands and mourn over what we have lost; it is for us to pray and pray fervently, to teach the young and to bear witness through study and application of Your Word and through the example of our lives.
Give us strength even if we are old, disabled, young, burdened in middle age, weak, confused or impoverished to cling to You in faith, allow the Spirit to work in us and speak through us, and to stand up for Jesus.
Let us exit the "Church of Nice" and once again preach and teach the hellfire that awaits unrepentant sinners.
Let our confidence and joy in Your Word attract and hold the attention of the lost, for You Are Mighty to give, to love and to save.
In Jesus' Name we pray,
Amen!
Thank you so much for this.
What’s left of our most precious Country is in daily prayer here.
Savior! He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save, He is mighty to save!
Forever, author of Salvation
Where He rose and conquered the grave,
Jesus conquered the grave!
So take me as You find me
All my fears and failures, fill my life again!
I give my life to follow
Everything I believe in, and now I surrender,
I surrender...
Savior! He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save, He is mighty to save
Forever, author of Salvation
He rose and conquered the grave,
Jesus conquered the grave!
Shine Your light and let the whole world see, we're singing
For the glory of the risen King, Jesus
Shine Your light and let the whole world see, we're singing
For the glory of the risen King!
Savior! He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save, He is mighty to save
Forever, author of Salvation
He rose and conquered the grave,
Jesus conquered the grave!
Shine Your light and let the whole world see, we're singing
For the glory of the risen King, Jesus...
For the glory of the risen King!
Amen.
Praying with you. God bless.
We come to you after a disturbing week of events for our President, people, and this nation......these events did not pass your sight Lord for nothing can be hidden from you. ...and we once again have observed that this nation is not only greatly divided but more and more evidences a battle between good and evil and therefore which side the people will stand with.
Lord ...there are many in our nation who are lost Lord, who have chosen to turn their backs on you and therefore have chosen other causes and purposes to fill that void......from nature to political positions which directly oppose your will and ways for man..... You said this would come and we see this clearly as it grows and consumes so many that they have lost their ability to identify what truth or reason is.......and so Lord we pray for those now who are our enemies as well as those in confusion... as you have asked that we do.
.....Lord, we ask that you reach out to those who have fallen so far from the right way, both with our governing officials and the people of this land....we ask that your Spirit would reveal to them the error of their ways and turn them to you..... Create circumstances and happenings which make it impossible for them to continue to ignore where they are at in their thinking, their hearts, minds and souls. ..and reveal to them the door of salvation all must go thru to become the persons you would have them to be that they might know the assurance they are yours.
We pray for those also who are in the field of leading people to you, in our governing bodies and without....that you would arrange opportunity for them to speak boldly and wisely to those lost.... Grant them a full unction of your Spirit.. for we know it is by Him that all men are brought to you as you draw them to yourself.
Thank you Lord....and help us all to be ready to speak on your behalf to the lost as your Spirit leads us.....
In your name....Amen
Joining you in prayer this morning.
And a special prayer for Steve Scalise and his family.
Thank you for posting the graphic of Proverbs 20:30, V K Lee. It is so profound and true.
Blows and wounds scrub away evil, and
beatings purge the inmost being.
Lord God,
We pray for Donald Trump, Mike Pence and all their advisors, appointed officials, family members and especially their children. How many of them must be quaking in their seats after the demonic attack on the Congressional Republican baseball team? We humbly ask you to surround them with angels and supernatural protection, calming their hearts and assuaging their fears, gracious Lord.
We continue to hold up the Capitol Police officers who risked their lives, especially Crystal and David who suffered wounds. Silence the mouths of their critics who disdain them for discharging their duties on behalf of politicians their friends or family may despise. Help them and all Americans understand the justice and practical fair play inherent in the two-party system, and be ashamed of calling for the destruction of the loyal opposition.
As for the disloyal opposition, Father of All, bring them to Your seat of power and mercy to receive Your wrath and spiritual scourging. Break them like a horse or mule to receive the bit and reins of civilized conduct to the glory of Your Will.
And most especially, Lord God of Hosts, we lift up to you for Diving Healing the serious wounds of Representative Steve Scalise, lobbyist and former Congressional staffer Matt Mika who was shot in the chest, and Cong.staffer Zach Barth. Let their healing first and foremost be a deep awareness of their Salvation in You, Lord God, and an abiding sense of gratitude for your mercy. May these wounds serve as a lifetime incentive to re-establish this nation's Founding Principles in Your Commandments, statutes, ordinances, advice, foresight and protective warnings to the wise.
Bring shame and repentance to those who have incited, fomented or longed for violent overthrow of the Constitution and the will of The People, demonstrating to them without question that Your patience with evildoing and malicious hearts will not endure forever.
Finally, Lord, give us courage and strength to fulfill Your Great Commission; we are now so greatly needed as missionaries in our own land.
in Jesus' Name.
Amen.
I charge you therefore before God...
Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires... they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.
—2 Timothy 4:1-5
Amen!
Thoughtfully said caww. And Amen!
