A Citizen's Prayer for 2018
Jan 7, 2018 | Vanity

Posted on 01/07/2018 12:13:46 AM PST by GoldenState_Rose

In an age where the governments of this world:

1) have revealed their moral indecisiveness at best

2) or their decisive commitment to the authoritarian legacies of their predecessors

3) or to the scourge of false religions

I pray that this year, America, and American values rooted in faith visibly triumph in the human contests of the age: from the Olympics to the (new) space race.

For extra favor on our nation and its citizens, especially Christian ones —> to enjoy the earthly fruits of achievement and victory before the watching world.

So that there be no question in the minds of people around the world deciding between engaging in the worthy struggle for freedom and passive conformity to tyranny — that the struggle is worth it and that all meaningful social change is possible with God.

For God to bless, protect, and continue to vindicate President Trump as he makes bold, decisive moves (like commiting to the integrity of Jerusalem and appointing pro-life judges) which bring our country and world more in line with God’s will and priorities.

We know that moral and spiritual triumph must precede economic prowess and political progress. LORD, may our country be a reminder to the world of this reality! We praise you for the restoration of light in a government shadowed in darkness, and the evidences of our renewed economy. May our nation abound in blessings both visible and invisible.

And as that famous saying goes: as we let our own light shine, we encourage others to do the same.

May it be a light of substance and not of empty glory.

LORD, may our light - the torch of liberty shine with ever increasing brightness and intensity in 2018 and beyond.

Help shape us each into citizens worthy of our earthly call.

Amen.
