Heavenly Father, we return to give You thanks that You are the calm in the midst of our storm. May it be, O Lord, that we will partake of Your calm when all around us is the raging sea. We call upon You, O God, just as the disciples did:

"And a great storm of wind arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that the boat was already filling. But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him and said to him,'Teacher, do you not care if we perish?' And he awoke and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, 'Peace! Be still!' And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. He said to them, 'Why are you afraid? Have you no faith?' And they were filled with awe, and said to one another, 'Who then is this, that even wind and sea obey him?'" Mark 5:37-43

You are the Living Lord, O God, Creator of Heaven and Earth ... there is nothing unknown to You. You know the troubled waters we are struggling through ... You know that evil men are waiting to crash upon us as deadly waves, sending us into oblivion. Many there are who would encircle us, like sharks to prey, and great is their number. Remind us, O Lord, that all power in Heaven and Earth is vested in us as children of the Living God. Rebuke this storm around us, O Lord, even as we rebuke the fear in us, for You are our Captain ... our Pilot. Gather us together in this stormy sea, that we might call upon Your Mighty Name to not only hold back the storm, but to calm the angry sea. Look with mercy upon us, O Lord ... sweep away the enemy, every one of them ... send them back into the sea as You did Pharaoh's chariots ... that our beloved country might journey to safe harbor ... may we yet walk in peace and safety on the dry land set before us. In the Name of Jesus, I pray, Amen ...

Amen to your beautiful, Holy Spirit-inspired prayer, my sweet sister! O God our Great King, my cherished sister has called upon Thee from the riches of her sweet, loving heart, offering her devout praise and supplication to our Eternal Living God, Who has Power over the times, seasons, and events, and I stand in agreement with her, treasuring every Spirit-inspired word, thanking You, our Blessed Savior, that You have given her this wonderful Gift! My dear sister has so beautifully said what we all can't adequately put into words; please hear her, our Great and Awesome God! We lift our hearts and hands to Thee, begging You for the protection of our nation, O Great God, our Loving Savior! Deliver us, my King! For the Glory of Your Name, preserve our land, O God! O Captain of the Armies of our God of Hosts, we agree together for the Life and Soul of our Nation! Let it be as my dear sister has petitioned, and we will give You all the Glory, Honor, and Praise, through Jesus Christ our Lord! In His Blessed Name we pray, amen.
