Join with fellow FREEPERS to pray for PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP/VICE PRESIDENT MIKE PENCE and AMERICA: Government, Family, Military, Business, Education, Churches, and the Media.
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
Religion Forum threads labeled [Prayer] are closed to debate of any kind.
The Doors are open, calling all watchmen. Our nation needs you. Please join us in praying for our President, his administration, and our AMERICA. Only with the help of GOD can we begin healing this land.
HOLY FATHER, You have been with US from the beginning. You have witnessed our shortcomings, our failings, yet You continue to answer our cries when asked. The nation You brought forth is no longer the nation You envisioned. We have stumbled repeatedly; finding our impartial judges are not the wise Solomon who knew You. The men chosen to judge us are inept and incompetent and show us they have no desire to follow the laws as written. Father, please see they have direction on the paths they take and speak to them about making better decisions. Father, thank You for Your love and Your Grace. We sing Your Praises, O Lord.
Bless President Trump and family, and those who attempt to assist him in bringing this nation back to You in order to once again be known as A Christian Nation. We pray for our mighty military and their families. We pray to see our Christian brothers and sisters know peace world wide. Give us Hope, O Lord. We grow weary from the fight and weak in our resolve.
It has been written and seen when a stone is thrown into the waters, ripples are created. Small gentle ripples gradually subsiding. When a larger, weighted stone is thrown, the ripples are stronger, lasting longer. Long enough to encircle the pond from shore to shore. John Adams was keenly aware that to remain loyal to our constitution, we must be a moral and religious people. The faulty judges began a ripple when they gave their approval for abortion. Perhaps a small ripple, but a long lasting one. After their judgment, the ripple became larger and stronger when countless other stones were tossed into the pond. No longer any smooth water - ripples converging and feeding from their own.
Another watchman is Joe Kennedy, an average Joe.
For seven years, Kennedy would take a knee on the field in a private, brief, silent, post-game prayer. No one ever complained.
But two years ago, officials at Bremerton High School in Bremerton, Washington, demanded he stop praying. In fact, they told him that if he did anything that was visibly religious, they would fire him. This mandate stripped Coach Kennedy of his right to religious expressiona right protected by the First Amendment, federal law, and extensive case law precedent.
Kennedy knew the school district was wrong. On principle, he could not cave in to a demand that he give up his constitutional righta right he fought for as a U.S. Marine. He took a knee after a game, and the school terminated him.
On Monday, June 12, Kennedy goes before the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuitjust a step below the U.S. Supreme Court. Attorneys with First Liberty Institute will represent the beloved coach. More on 6/12 hearing here: Coach Kennedy's day in court
Over the last two years, Joe Kennedys saga has made national news. President Donald Trump even mentioned it as an example of religious discrimination. And other coaches across the country who engage in similar religious expression are also anxiously watching. Much rides on the outcome. Taking a Knee

Father, Bless all who join us here. We pray in the name of JESUS CHRIST
AMEN
Ping!
Amen
The coach can’t pray but the muslims can wear headscarves in public, leave their jobs to pray five times a day, but only muslim men can go to the mosque because women are second-class citizens. God help us. Please. We’re becoming unequal in our own country.
As my Irish grandmother used to pray, “Saints preserve us.”
Joining you in your heartfelt and powerful prayer, dear FRiend, in Jesus Holy Name, Amen.
Amen and amen to your fervent prayer and post, V K Lee.
[Give us Hope, O Lord. We grow weary from the fight and weak in our resolve.]
Isaiah 40:28-31
28 Have you never heard?
Have you never understood?
The Lord is the everlasting God,
the Creator of all the earth.
He never grows weak or weary.
No one can measure the depths of his understanding.
29 He gives power to the weak
and strength to the powerless.
30 Even youths will become weak and tired,
and young men will fall in exhaustion.
31 But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength.
They will soar high on wings like eagles.
They will run and not grow weary.
They will walk and not faint.
FATHER GOD,
Give us watchmen on the wall strength and Supernatural ability to fight the battle for the soul of America against the invisible forces of darkness. Help us put on every piece of Gods armor so we will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil and still be standing after the battle. Give us courage to stand unashamedly for TRUTH.
We give praise to our LORD JESUS CHRIST Who won the victory!
In JESUS’ Name we pray. Amen.
Amen.
As is written.....Lord...You have a mighty arm; Strong is Your hand, and high is Your right hand....Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne;...Mercy and truth go before Your face.....Blessed are the people who know the joyful sound!.....They walk, O Lord, in the light of Your countenance......In Your name they rejoice all day long,
And in Your righteousness they are exalted.....For You are the glory of their strength,....and in Your favor our horn is exalted......For our shield belongs to the Lord,......
And our king to the Holy One of Israel.
Amen.
Amen
Amen!!
Psalm 45
To the leader: according to Lilies. Of the Korahites. A Maskil. A love song.
1 My heart overflows with a goodly theme;
I address my verses to the king;
my tongue is like the pen of a ready scribe.
2 You are the most handsome of men;
grace is poured upon your lips;
therefore God has blessed you for ever.
3 Gird your sword on your thigh, O mighty one,
in your glory and majesty.
4 In your majesty ride on victoriously
for the cause of truth and to defend* the right;
let your right hand teach you dread deeds.
5 Your arrows are sharp
in the heart of the kings enemies;
the peoples fall under you.
6 Your throne, O God,* endures for ever and ever.
Your royal sceptre is a sceptre of equity;
7 you love righteousness and hate wickedness.
Therefore God, your God, has anointed you
with the oil of gladness beyond your companions;
8 your robes are all fragrant with myrrh and aloes and cassia.
From ivory palaces stringed instruments make you glad;
9 daughters of kings are among your ladies of honour;
at your right hand stands the queen in gold of Ophir.
10 Hear, O daughter, consider and incline your ear;
forget your people and your fathers house,
11 and the king will desire your beauty.
Since he is your lord, bow to him;
12 the people* of Tyre will seek your favour with gifts,
the richest of the people 13with all kinds of wealth.
The princess is decked in her chamber with gold-woven robes;*
14 in many-coloured robes she is led to the king;
behind her the virgins, her companions, follow.
15 With joy and gladness they are led along
as they enter the palace of the king.
16 In the place of ancestors you, O king,* shall have sons;
you will make them princes in all the earth.
17 I will cause your name to be celebrated in all generations;
therefore the peoples will praise you for ever and ever.
Prayers to rebuke that spirit of anti-Christ rising up in this nation and becoming visible,
Prayers for protection surrounding President Trump and all his loyal administration,
Let all others be uncovered for who they serve and what they are, let the curtain be pulled back,
Amen
Amen.

Praying for our country. Amen!
Amen to your prayers, V K Lee!
Thank You, Father, for election victories in Georgia and North Carolina! The People are listening to their hearts, not the propagandists. Thank You, Lord!
Beautiful graphic and prayers. Amen to every word. I feel confident the NW coach will prevail in courts since losing would mean Muslims could no longer pray in public. (Sad but true state of American courts)
God, thank you for victory last night as a godly woman defeated a fraud. We pray You would bless and protect President Trump at the Iowa Rally tonight.
Lord bless VP Pence and his family as well. He has shown himself to be a faithful servant.
I pray also for Barron. May this young man begin to know and follow You even in his youth. Bring purpose and vision to his life so that he will not become a castaway as have so many famous children.
We thank You for our lives, our liberty and all the blessings you bestow upon us daily. Finally, We thank You for Jesus, in whom we have hope for life eternal.
Amen, V K Lee
Joining in prayer for our beloved America
May the Good Lord raise up godly judges, leaders at all levels. Fill them with wisdom and courage to stand for what is right.
Lifting up President Trump for protection on all fronts. Give him and his staff wisdom and courage.
In Jesus Name
Amen
Amen.
For Coach Kennedy, Sir, we pray Matt.5:11, 12: Blessed (happy, to be envied, and spiritually prosperouswith life-joy and satisfaction in Gods favor and salvation, regardless of your outward conditions) are you when people revile you and persecute you and say all kinds of evil things against you falsely on My account. Be glad and supremely joyful, for your reward in heaven is great (strong and intense), for in this same way people persecuted the prophets who were before you.
Father, give him favor with God and man. Thank You for being his defender in Jesus’ name. Amen.
