[The Spirit Of Allegiance]

On my heart is to share a prayer and some scripture and invite others to join in agreement on this thread.

Lord, I pray:

* For the humiliation and spiritual 'breaking' of our enemies, without bloodshed, that they be in disarray as a group and come to spiritual repentance individually.

* For the enlightenment of the many naive and apathetic people who finally start to understand the agenda of the Radical Left and renounce and reject it,

* For the encouragement of the Conservative Right, that they will renew their strength, that they will have both the compassion and the backbone, the grace and the Truth, to confront evildoers without flinching, without compromise, without returning evil for evil.

* For the knowledge of what to say to counter the lies and hatred, in a way that defuses and stymies the liars and haters.

* For the protection of our sources of information and truth--that the enemies' efforts to kill faithful messengers will be continually stymied.

And, recalling the book by Fred Schwartz, "You Can Trust The Communists--To Be Communist!" may those who seek to do righteousness trust in You and find the way to HATE the sin but LOVE the sinners.

Lord, let us all be wise in our politics, that we be not be derisive and divisive, but that our principled kindness will overwhelm the miserable souls who rage against all that is right, true and decent. Let us be wise in our answers, in Jesus' Name, amen.


Joshua 5:13
(The Battle and Fall of Jericho) Now when Joshua was near Jericho, he looked up and saw a man standing in front of him with a drawn sword in his hand. Joshua went up to him and asked, "Are you for us or for our enemies?"

Joshua 10:25
Joshua said to them, "Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Be strong and courageous. This is what the LORD will do to all the enemies you are going to fight."

Deuteronomy 20:3-4
He shall say: "Hear, O Israel, today you are going into battle against your enemies. Do not be fainthearted or afraid; do not be terrified or give way to panic before them. For the LORD your God is the one who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies to give you victory."

Deuteronomy 23:14
For the LORD your God moves about in your camp to protect you and to deliver your enemies to you. Your camp must be holy, so that he will not see among you anything indecent and turn away from you.

Deuteronomy 28:7
The LORD will grant that the enemies who rise up against you will be defeated before you. They will come at you from one direction but flee from you in seven.

Psalm 2

1. Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
2. The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,
3. Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
4. He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the LORD shall have them in derision.
5. Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. ....

Psalm 3
1. O LORD, I have so many enemies; so many are against me.
2. So many are saying, "God will never rescue him!"
3. But you, O LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts my head high.
4. I cried out to the LORD, and he answered me from his holy mountain.
5. I lay down and slept. I woke up in safety,
for the LORD was watching over me.
6. I am not afraid of ten thousand enemies who surround me on every side.
7. Arise, O LORD! Rescue me, my God!
Slap all my enemies in the face! Shatter the teeth of the wicked!
8. Victory comes from you, O LORD. May your blessings rest on your people.

Ephesians 6:12
For 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.

[AliVeritas]

Father in heaven, I thank you for this day...when the oppressed in the Middle East and all over the world have a voice that stands for freedom and hope. I ask that your will be done today, that you protect them from evil, fortify, sustain and strengthen them. Let your words of truth pour from their lips, and your gentleness and mercy be in their hearts. I ask that you stand with us today...not only for the oppressed, the soldiers and the oppressed...but for the opening of the others eyes to the truth. We thank you for being with us, we know you are in control and we know that all things are for the good of those who love and serve you.

These gifts I ask through Christ Our Lord. Amen

[dandelion]

I lift them up to the Lord! May those who have sacrificed so much for Freedom be represented in truth; may those who represent them be holy and filled with Your Spirit;

May You Prevail, and may justice be done. In Jesus name I pray...

I started praying for the great Americans that are converging on Crawford when I was gardening this morning.

Many of you, like me, wish we could be with them.
However, we can all be with them in spirit through our prayers.

May we all use our talents for the good of the Lord as outlined in today's Gospel

Gospel
Mt 25:14-30

Jesus told his disciples this parable:
"A man going on a journey
called in his servants and entrusted his possessions to them.
To one he gave five talents; to another, two; to a third, one–
to each according to his ability.
Then he went away.
Immediately the one who received five talents went and traded with them,
and made another five.
Likewise, the one who received two made another two.
But the man who received one went off and dug a hole in the ground
and buried his master's money.
After a long time
the master of those servants came back and settled accounts with them.
The one who had received five talents
came forward bringing the additional five.
He said, ‘Master, you gave me five talents.
See, I have made five more.'
His master said to him, ‘Well done, my good and faithful servant.
Since you were faithful in small matters,
I will give you great responsibilities.
Come, share your master's joy.'
Then the one who had received two talents also came forward and said,
‘Master, you gave me two talents.
See, I have made two more.'
His master said to him, ‘Well done, my good and faithful servant.
Since you were faithful in small matters,
I will give you great responsibilities.
Come, share your master's joy.'
Then the one who had received the one talent came forward and said,
‘Master, I knew you were a demanding person,
harvesting where you did not plant
and gathering where you did not scatter;
so out of fear I went off and buried your talent in the ground.
Here it is back.'
His master said to him in reply, ‘You wicked, lazy servant!
So you knew that I harvest where I did not plant
and gather where I did not scatter?
Should you not then have put my money in the bank
so that I could have got it back with interest on my return?
Now then! Take the talent from him and give it to the one with ten.
For to everyone who has,
more will be given and he will grow rich;
but from the one who has not,
even what he has will be taken away.
And throw this useless servant into the darkness outside,
where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth.'"
