Come and pray
Prayers up for GWB.
AMEN AND GRACE TO ALL CHRISTIAN PATRIOTS!
Psalms 56:1
To the Chief Musician. Set to “The Silent Dove in Distant Lands.” A Michtam of David when the Philistines captured him in Gath. Be merciful to me, O God, for man would swallow me up; Fighting all day he oppresses me.
Psalms 56:2
My enemies would hound me all day, For there are many who fight against me, O Most High.
Psalms 56:3
Whenever I am afraid, I will trust in You.
Psalms 56:4
In God (I will praise His word), In God I have put my trust; I will not fear. What can flesh do to me?
Psalms 56:5
All day they twist my words; All their thoughts are against me for evil.
Psalms 56:6
They gather together, They hide, they mark my steps, When they lie in wait for my life.
Psalms 56:7
Shall they escape by iniquity? In anger cast down the peoples, O God!
Psalms 56:8
You number my wanderings; Put my tears into Your bottle; Are they not in Your book?
Psalms 56:9
When I cry out to You, Then my enemies will turn back; This I know, because God is for me.
Psalms 56:10
In God (I will praise His word), In the LORD (I will praise His word),
Psalms 56:11
In God I have put my trust; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?
Psalms 56:12
Vows made to You are binding upon me, O God; I will render praises to You,
Psalms 56:13
For You have delivered my soul from death. Have You not kept my feet from falling, That I may walk before God In the light of the living?
(NKJV)
“When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for
God is for me.”
- Psalm 56:9
It is impossible for any human speech to express the full meaning of this
delightful phrase, “God is for me.” He was “for us” before the worlds were
made; he was “for us,” or he would not have given his well-beloved son; he
was “for us” when he smote the Only-begotten, and laid the full weight of
his wrath upon him-he was “for us,” though he was against him; he was “for
us,” when we were ruined in the fall-he loved us notwithstanding all; he
was “for us,” when we were rebels against him, and with a high hand were
bidding him defiance; he was “for us,” or he would not have brought us
humbly to seek his face. He has been “for us” in many struggles; we have
been summoned to encounter hosts of dangers; we have been assailed by
temptations from without and within-how could we have remained unharmed to
this hour if he had not been “for us”? He is “for us,” with all the
infinity of his being; with all the omnipotence of his love; with all the
infallibility of his wisdom; arrayed in all his divine attributes, he is
“for us,”-eternally and immutably “for us”; “for us” when yon blue skies
shall be rolled up like a worn out vesture; “for us” throughout eternity.
And because he is “for us,” the voice of prayer will always ensure his
help. “When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies be turned back.
“ This is no uncertain hope, but a well grounded assurance-”this I know.
“ I will direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up for the answer,
assured that it will come, and that mine enemies shall be defeated, “for
God is for me.
“ O believer, how happy art thou with the King of kings on thy side! How
safe with such a Protector! How sure thy cause pleaded by such an
Advocate! If God be for thee, who can be against thee?

SOLI DEO GLORIA!
Dear God,
Thank You for Your Love.
Thank You for giving us wisdom and common sense.
Please guide President Bush.
Please help him make the hard choice and decisions
he must make now and through the rest of his presidency.
Your will be done.
In Jesus’ Holy name I pray this simple prayer.
Amen.
O precious Lord, God of the universe, I agree in prayer with Wendelmyer and with every other person on this thread praying for our president, George W. Bush. Lord, he is hemmed in on every side. Even some of his friends have turned against him. Please help and strengthen our president. Please help him to see things clearly, and through your eyes. Grant him health, strength and peace. Guide him, we pray, in the right way.
Please help him make the right decisions for our nation. He is trying to stop the onslaught of the radical Islamists, Lord, those who have sworn to destroy us and to destroy your nation of Israel. Please unite our country behind him. You said that a house divided cannot stand. So unite us, dear Lord. Please let the scales drop from the eyes of those who are blinded by their personal interests. Lord, focus our vision so we can see where to place our next step.
Protect and bless our beloved soldiers and sailors, dear Lord, especially those who are in harm’s way. Please grant them supernatural protection. Let the weapons formed against them not function. Let those weapons be duds that, instead of harming our soldiers, blow up in the hands of our enemies. Please guide our military leaders, so they will know what to do. And please confuse and confound our enemies. Make them unsure and afraid when they realize that you are helping us. We pray all these things in the name of the holy Lamb of God, His son, Jesus. Amen.
Amen.
O Lord, I will Honor
And Praise Your Name,
For You are my God;
You Do Such Wonderful Things! (Ps.25:1)
Amen.
Thanks for the message from Spurgeon.
...and amen.
Amen to your prayer, wendelmyer! Thank you for leading us tonight.
I join in prayer for President Bush, the Administration and our heroes standing in harm’s way!
Heavenly Father, words cannot convey the gratitude, respect, and admiration we have for each of our defenders of freedom. That so noble a people would come out of a generation that clamors for failure, is but an indication that Your hand is upon them. Strengthen them, O God, as they seek to lengthen the light of liberty. Grant them good success even when failure has been declared. Thank You for the moms and dads who wait in the shadows for their beloved children ... grant the desire of their hearts and return their sons and daughters to the warmth of their homes.
Chaos reigns throughout the world, Sovereign God, stirred up by the prince of the power of this world. Breathe Your sweet calm upon the earth that we might live peaceably, one with another. Watch over Your beloved Jerusalem and Your nation Israel ... let her not be abandoned, but bring forth the promised blessing that You will give to those who bless her.
Our times are in Your hands, O Lord ... let us redeem the time, so much more so when we see the end approach. Reach down and rescue the perishing, to the everlasting Glory and Honor of Your Name, Amen ...
Joining with you all in prayer.
Amen. God, we appreciate the strength and wisdom You are surely giving our President. Amen.
