[Knitting A Conundrum]

Morning prayer ping!


Pegita, your prayer made me think of this:

For we are not contending against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

Therefore take the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Stand therefore, having girded your loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the equipment of the gospel of peace; besides all these, taking the shield of faith, with which you can quench all the flaming darts of the evil one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

Pray at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints.

Ephesians 6:12-18

Our Father in Heaven, hear our voice, and let our cry come unto thee. Look not upon the sins of our nation, but on the faith of those in this land who call you Lord and Master.

Lord, as we pray for our nation, our leaders, our country's safety, bless our endeavor, and bless our country, and help us as we stand up for your light. May we, by our prayers and example, inspire others to also come to your light.

Guard our nation with your ourstretched hand, and lead our lawmakers in the paths of justice and those actions which will allow our land to prosper. Help them to protect our borders, insure fair law, and just courts.

In the name of Jesus, Our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, with the Holy Spirit, One God, forever and ever! Amen.

Do not love the world, nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world.
And the world is passing away, and also its lusts; but the one who does the will of God abides forever.
I John 2:15-17

I pray for our leaders to do what is right for our Country and its citizens!

A Prayer for Our Nation

God, grant me Your eyes
so I will see
All the earth's beauty
surrounding me.

God, give me Your lips
And I'll express
Your love for all people
with gentleness.

And Lord, let my hands
be tender, like Yours,
So I will be one who
renews and restores.

God, grant me these things
and then I'll share
Compassion and mercy,
praise and prayer!

"All these," the Lord said
"I already impart:
They're found when You're
living from the heart."
