[The Spirit Of Allegiance]

"Lord, I agree with Your Word and ask that You cause those who are opposed to law and order to realize they are striving against YOU, from Whom come law and order. I pray that those we have put in power in America will prove trustworthy. I pray that those who prove trustworthy will be properly honored here and in the hereafter. I pray that those who prove themselves treacherous will be cast out of office and not lead us astray. I pray that the 'huddled masses' around the world will realize that the HOPE of America can be theirs, if they will apply the Biblical principles of America's founding to their own land. I pray that these people will not covet what is in America but will trust You to help them, right where they are. I pray that wisdom will be given to the downtrodden everywhere--that they will realize that hope and freedom come not from Communism but from obeying Scripture. I pray that the eyes of the 'disenfranchised' will be opened in every land to see through the schemes of those who seek to manipulate them for selfish ends. I pray that we in America will turn from our own lukewarm brands of religion and 'rend our hearts, not our garments.' I pray that America will be quick to help, individually and as a nation, those lawful yet less blessed in every other land, that America may yet be a City on a Hill and a Light unto the World, in Jesus' Name, amen.

I pray that the Senate will gain a spine and some wisdom, which is sorely lacking.

AMEN! AMEN! AMEN! AMEN! AMEN! AMEN! AMEN!

[ForGod'sSake]

My schedule doesn't permit me to commit to a particular time, but I will re-double my prayers for our country and our leaders. It's difficult with the constant barrage of chicanery, so thanks for the reminder.BTW, and IMO the KJV's passages from Eph. 6 are much more powerful:

 10Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

 11Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

 12For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

 13Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

 14Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

Thanks for the ping.

[dixiechick2000]

Amen!

I can't commit to a particular time to pray about this issue.
However, I say a little prayer everytime I think about it.
I think about it quite often, as you can imagine.


*Note my tagline, too. ;o)

[Smartass]

I'll post a prayer for our country right now.


"If my people, which are called by my name,
shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my
face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will
I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin,
and will heal their land.
-II Chronicles 7:14

God Bless America

 

[NewRomeTacitus]

"It was all going really well until I got hacked off and kicked the moneychangers out of His temple. That was the point where the powerful people set aside their petty differences in order to remove me from the picture.

The Apostles were shocked to see that the 'Other Cheek' had it's limits of tolerance...sometimes one has to kick serious butt when confronted with blasphemy too outrageous to be ignored."

- not being presumptuous, just seeing the allegory while Congress is trying to sell this lipsticked pig called amnesty.

[Just A Nobody]

Amen and thank you.

Jan, I thought you might want to see this.

[potlatch]

Bump!

[DAVEY CROCKETT]
