Our Father,

We present to You humble hearts, filled with gratitude for standing with our President in tonight's debate. We pray that glory and honor were brought to Your Name, not only through his performance, but also in all the prayers that were lifted up to You on his behalf throughout this prayer vigil. Father, may Your precious love and blessings rain down upon those who paused to pray, and may each heart be renewed with the blessed assurance that You hear and answer our prayers in ways far more wonderful than we can imagine. Great is Your faithfulness, Almighty God, and we praise You in the Name of Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.

God is faithful.
Another win for the prayer warriors.

We must pray for John Kerry to be saved. I have done that earlier today, when the Spirit convicted me that the Lord would get the most Glory.

May God bless you for your obedience, and may the eyes of John Kerry's heart be opened so that he may grow in grace and knowledge of the Lord, Jesus Christ.

Dear Heavenly Father,
We just thank You for Your grace and mercy and goodness towards us and towards our President, George W. Bush. Lord, we need to keep someone in office who fears You and lives his life to please You. We pray that You will make this so and thank You for everything You are and do. For it is in Jesus's name that I pray these things!
Amen!

Hi alpha,

I am wondering if you could do the Pray for President Bush post for me this coming Monday, October 18th. I will be going out of town. If you are unable, it is OK. Please let me know whenever you can. Thank you so much.

JOIN US FOR A WEEK OF PRAYER PRIOR TO THE ELECTION

[Gramma2B]

I can honestly say that this thread...praying for the specific debates...had done a marvelous work in my life. I've been so frightened of the possible outcome of the election, and so just-plain-angry at the lies and deception we've been exposed to, and it's been a very difficult time emotionally and spiritually.

Here's what I've done since last evening (and I wish I'd thought of it before last Friday's debate)...

I created a Word file including all the actual prayers which people had offered on this thread, at least, so far, through the first 400 posts. It is, at the moment, somewhere between 11 and 12 pages. I printed it and simply read each of these aloud during my specified hour of prayer--twice through. And it was such an incredible blessing. (I have chronic invisible illnesses which cause a brain fog, which makes praying the way I used to difficult.)

I've decided that these pages have been such a blessing and been such an aid to prayer that I'm going to go through all the prayers out loud at least once each day.

Now...I'd like to make an offer to you, just because, but also in thanks to each of you who have contributed to this effort to pray for our beloved President. If you would like me to send you that file of prayers in an attachment, please post to me privately giving me your email address, and I'll be glad to send it. (If my computer know-how is lacking, I'll ask my Freep son to help.)

I promise not to use your email address for any other purpose than this!

BLESSED ASSURANCE

Blessèd assurance, Jesus is mine!
O what a foretaste of glory divine!
Heir of salvation, purchase of God,
Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.

This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Savior, all the day long;
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Savior, all the day long.

Perfect submission, perfect delight,
Visions of rapture now burst on my sight;
Angels descending bring from above
Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.

This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Savior, all the day long;
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Savior, all the day long.

Perfect submission, all is at rest
I in my Savior am happy and blest,
Watching and waiting, looking above,
Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.

This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Savior, all the day long;
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Savior, all the day long

After prayer report:

I've never done such an intense period of intercessory prayer,but I stuck it out.

This morning when I got up I was lead to Psalm 64:

Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint; Preserve my life form the dread enemy.

Hide me from the secret plots of the wicked, from the schemeing of evildoers,

Who whet their tongues like swords, who aim bitter words like arrows,

Shooting from ambush at the blameless; they shoot suddenly and without fear.

They hold fast to their evil purpose;They talk of laying snares secretly, thinking, " Who can see us ?".

"Who can search out our crimes ? We have thought out a cunningly conceived plan." For the human heart and mind are deep.

But God will shoot His arrow at them; they will be wounded suddenly.

Because of their tongue He will bring them to ruin; all who see them will shake with horror.

Then everyone will fear; they will tell what God has brought about, and ponder what He has done.

Let the righteous rejoice in the Lord and take refuge in him. Let all the upright in heart glory.

Heavenly Father,

We humbly come before You lifting up our nation and specifically this election. We ask that You intercede in this election. Your word says ask and it will be given to you, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened. Which of you, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? Father we are asking for the reelection of one of Your own. President Bush is but a mere man, but a man after Your own heart. A man who does not take Your name in vain,
he does not use your name for political gain, as Kerry does. Lord, You know both these men. We humbly ask that You open the eyes and remove the scales of people across this nation, to see what truly evil and what is truly good. Lord, soften there hardened hearts and remind them they will be held accountable for there vote. Impress on them the power of there vote; to kill innocent babies in the womb up to 9 months, to let out of control judges to legalize gay marriage, push gay agendas in our schools, and remove You wherever they can in our land, which was dedicated to You when this nation was founded. Hear our prayer and help us to have faith, no matter what we see or hear. With you, all things are possible. In Your precious son Jesus' name we pray. Amen

Hey, sign me up for every Friday from 7-8 CST (8-9 EST). I'm going to Adoration every Friday night during that time slot -- and I'm certainly willing to pray for our President as an intention while I say the Rosary.
