We invite you to join our prayer community In prayer for God's blessings on our nation.
Our father, we come to you in prayer today for our beleaguered nation and for its citizens. We especially remember in prayer those suffering from the violence and suffering spawned by the evil that seems to be spreading unchecked through our land.
Protect our country, our values and history from those who operate from selfish motives and who want to destroy our values, Open the eyes of the weak-willed who support them. Help our President and his team to guide our land back toward the path of righteousness.
Amen
Amen
Amen.
If we pray for our nation, the first prayer must be for REPENTANCE.
The bulk of the responsibility for the sad condition of our nation lies at the feet of the church, where men are building their kingdoms and bank accounts and believers are content going to church on Sundays, playing church games, and living like unbelievers.
The world looks at the church - and it sees itself. So why should it be interested?
The church is no longer “salt” to the nation, not a light shining of WHO God really is, not displaying the character, nature and power of the Lord Jesus Christ as seen in the book of Acts.
“Any Christian who can take it easy and not be saddened over the state of the church and the world today is out of fellowship with his Lord.”
Vance Havner, “Living in Kingdom Come”
I’d use the word “grieved” instead of “saddened”. He wrote the book 50 years ago........such is the decline since then.
Amen to your heartfelt prayer, JustaCowgirl.
Yesterday seemed like a turning point, with so much being brought to light, and more coming soon. You can just sense it.
Thank You, Lord, for being merciful to our Nation, and please help turn the hearts of its people back to You.
[Help our President and his team to guide our land back toward the path of righteousness.]
Amen. Only GOD can turn our nation around.
FATHER GOD,
Thank you for exposing the evil in America. You will judge us for everything we do, including every secret thing, whether good or bad. Pour out Your SPIRIT upon this nation to convict people of their sins. Cause them to turn back to You in repentance. Forgive us. Revive us. Save us. Come, heal this land.
Blessed is the nation whose GOD is the LORD. We place our hope and trust in You.
In JESUS’ Name we pray. Amen.
Amen
Heavenly Father, we are always blessed. Yet, we grieve with You - that there are so many who continue to rebel, who are greatly deceived, or are overcome with a dark spirit which leads them to cultivate hate, violence and all things ugly.
Lord, we lift up those who are tempted by the ANTIFA movement. Give them discernment and wisdom from You, that they will recognize the devil they partner with, that they would be horrified by the danger they entertain, and that they would abandon their walk in darkness.
Lord, embolden our dedication to You. Continue to sanctify us, burning away the dross, and provide us opportunity, wisdom and love to witness of Your glory and mercy. Lead us to minister to those who do not know You, that they may also see the Light.
We thank You for calling us to serve You. We thank You for blessing us. We thank You for Your Word.
in Jesus’ name we do pray
Amen!!
Psalm 57
To the leader: Do Not Destroy. Of David. A Miktam, when he fled from Saul, in the cave.
1 Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me,
for in you my soul takes refuge;
in the shadow of your wings I will take refuge,
until the destroying storms pass by.
2 I cry to God Most High,
to God who fulfils his purpose for me.
3 He will send from heaven and save me,
he will put to shame those who trample on me.
Selah
God will send forth his steadfast love and his faithfulness.
4 I lie down among lions
that greedily devour* human prey;
their teeth are spears and arrows,
their tongues sharp swords.
5 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens.
Let your glory be over all the earth.
6 They set a net for my steps;
my soul was bowed down.
They dug a pit in my path,
but they have fallen into it themselves.
Selah
7 My heart is steadfast, O God,
my heart is steadfast.
I will sing and make melody.
8 Awake, my soul!
Awake, O harp and lyre!
I will awake the dawn.
9 I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the peoples;
I will sing praises to you among the nations.
10 For your steadfast love is as high as the heavens;
your faithfulness extends to the clouds.
11 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens.
Let your glory be over all the earth.
In 100% agreement with your post.
Heavenly Father
We thank You for the mercy that You have extended.
Burn away the dross, Lord, that we may be filled with the Fire of Your Holy Spirit.
Let us not be found lukewarm.
Amen
Praise God!
Amen
Amen....
II Chron. 7:14 -
The FIRST REQUIREMENT IS WHAT?????????
That we HUMBLE OURSELVES!!!!!
THIS is the part WE DO NOT WANT TO DO!...
We can do what follows in this scripture - but it won’t work UNLESS WE FIRST HUMBLE OURSELVES!
Isaiah 57:15 - “For the High and Exalted One who lives forever, whose name is HOLY, says this: ‘I live in a high and holy place, WITH THE OPPRESSED AND LOWLY OF SPIRIT, to revive the spirit of the lowly and revive the heart of the oppressed.’ “
[Lord, embolden our dedication to You. Continue to sanctify us, burning away the dross, and provide us opportunity, wisdom and love to witness of Your glory and mercy.]
ALL FOR JESUS

Yes and Lord, please unveil and reveal and make public all those in collusion with evil in our land.
Lord I also pray that you reveal the true motives of those “GOPe” who are lying about their true motivations. Reveal the secret things that are done in the dark in D.C., especially so conservatives can know the Truth and weigh for ourselves what to do about corruption in our nation.
In Christ’s name, Amen
Amen to your every word. We are witnessing a true miracle. From the time D.J. Trump announced he would run. There are times when we must feel just as MOSES when he reached the promised land. Allowed to see, but never entering.
HOLY FATHER, thank you for igniting the light of FAITH in this nation. The fear we foresaw for our children has been thwarted. YOU have shown us that YOU will watch over all YOUR children. PRAISE OUR LORD, JESUS CHRIST. What a friend we have in JESUS.
We pray in His name.
Amen.
