We thank YOU FATHER that those of us who have received this most PRECIOUS and PERFECT GIFT of SALVATION can know the security that our souls are clinged to YOU and YOUR RIGHT HAND upholds us and will never let us go. (Ps. 63:8) For in YOUR PRESENCE, at YOUR RIGHT, sits THY GREAT AND GLORIOUS SON, in whose name we profess, and we are assured in HIM. THANK YOU LORD GOD.
And as we, Your dear children and grateful servants that know the blessed GLORY of calling YOU BOTH ABBA FATHER and ALMIGHTY GOD, we ask that YOUR FAVOR would move across this land through us and our lives, and that we would fulfill our great calling of being witnesses of YOUR GRACE, and today even this day as Acts 2:47 reads: . . . . the Lord added to them those who were being saved. Amen and Amen
Amen
Amen.
Oh, amen and Amen. So be it, we pray. Thank you for that petition.
Your prayer is indeed providential. Let me share something I learned just yesterday in study. You refer to us calling on the Father as Abba AND the Almighty.
The phrase LORD (all caps) Almighty in Hebrew translates to YAWHEH Sabot (not sure on the spelling of the second word, sorry). But it essentially means the one all powerful God who has angel armies and the powers of the universe at His command. The God, in other words, who fights for His people Israel and against the wicked nations and defeats the Enemy.
Well, guess WHO is the first person to USE this phrase in a prayer? None other than the barren, mocked, sad woman Hannah in 1 Samuel chapter one! She is pleading God for a son. The lesson, say commentators, is that this obscure woman KNEW she was calling on a God who controls the “big picture”-the rise and fall of nations, the one who commands the stars and the heavens; but she also held to the truth that this Almighty God cared about the concerns of an obscure woman without a child. Amazing!
And of course Yahweh remembered her, and gave her a son—the prophet Samuel.
So yes, He is our Father AND He is the God of the universe who hears even US! Hallelujah!
Amen to your beautiful prayer Dear one in Christ. And thank you for reminding us of our great Salvation that needs to be shouted from the mountaintops!
Thank you for sharing that awesome lesson. Our God is MIGHTY to save. Even as all powerful as he is he cares for us. Hallelujah what a Savior!
Amen
Amen
Joining you in prayer, Dear Jeanbl, in Jesus Holy Name.
Joining in Prayer with all who gather in HIS name.
HOLY FATHER, You have blessed us this Thanksgiving with such riches. We’ve so much for which we should be thankful. YOU have given us a second opportunity despite our wicked ways and the fact so many unbelievers have turned their backs toward You. Praise be YOUR NAME.
We pray in the name of JESUS
Amen.

Amen!! We are witnessing a great tempest starting to rage over the corrupt political class and the power brokers which we have seen in readings from Proverbs 10. This is my daily Proverb which coordinates with the day of the month. There is much here which is spot on for what we are seeing.
Proverbs 21
21The kings heart is a stream of water in the hand of the Lord;
he turns it wherever he will.
2 All deeds are right in the sight of the doer,
but the Lord weighs the heart.
3 To do righteousness and justice
is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.
4 Haughty eyes and a proud heart
the lamp of the wickedare sin.
5 The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance,
but everyone who is hasty comes only to want.
6 The getting of treasures by a lying tongue
is a fleeting vapour and a snare* of death.
7 The violence of the wicked will sweep them away,
because they refuse to do what is just.
8 The way of the guilty is crooked,
but the conduct of the pure is right.
9 It is better to live in a corner of the housetop
than in a house shared with a contentious wife.
10 The souls of the wicked desire evil;
their neighbours find no mercy in their eyes.
11 When a scoffer is punished, the simple become wiser;
when the wise are instructed, they increase in knowledge.
12 The Righteous One observes the house of the wicked;
he casts the wicked down to ruin.
13 If you close your ear to the cry of the poor,
you will cry out and not be heard.
14 A gift in secret averts anger;
and a concealed bribe in the bosom, strong wrath.
15 When justice is done, it is a joy to the righteous,
but dismay to evildoers.
16 Whoever wanders from the way of understanding
will rest in the assembly of the dead.
17 Whoever loves pleasure will suffer want;
whoever loves wine and oil will not be rich.
18 The wicked is a ransom for the righteous,
and the faithless for the upright.
19 It is better to live in a desert land
than with a contentious and fretful wife.
20 Precious treasure remains* in the house of the wise,
but the fool devours it.
21 Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness
will find life* and honour.
22 One wise person went up against a city of warriors
and brought down the stronghold in which they trusted.
23 To watch over mouth and tongue
is to keep out of trouble.
24 The proud, haughty person, named Scoffer,
acts with arrogant pride.
25 The craving of the lazy person is fatal,
for lazy hands refuse to labour.
26 All day long the wicked covet,*
but the righteous give and do not hold back.
27 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination;
how much more when brought with evil intent.
28 A false witness will perish,
but a good listener will testify successfully.
29 The wicked put on a bold face,
but the upright give thought to* their ways.
30 No wisdom, no understanding, no counsel,
can avail against the Lord.
31 The horse is made ready for the day of battle,
but the victory belongs to the Lord.
Prayers always. God bless.
