GOOD MORNING CHRISTIAN PATRIOTS AND GODSPEED!
Creator, I ask You to touch Your people and guide them in all that they endeavor in this pagan world. Move us closer to life as You enivioned it in the beginning.
I join in prayer for President Bush, the Administration and our heroes standing in harm’s way!
I have never responded to one of these threads, but I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate seeing them here every day. I DO pray for President and Mrs. Bush daily and I believe that it is our prayers that are holding them up in these difficult days. There is so much “Bush Bashing” on FR now, that it warms my heart to see something so positive each day. God Bless you!

READ: Acts 20:27-32
I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up. Acts 20:32
While visiting Jakarta, Indonesia, for a Bible conference, I was invited to speak in a church there. Before the first of two services that Sunday morning, one of the elders asked me to give him my Bible. He explained that the elders were responsible for the biblical reliability of the teaching the congregation received, and that he would return my Bible to me in front of the congregation. It was a tangible way of showing the church family that the leadership was entrusting the ministry of the Word to me on that day.
This practice was both sobering and encouraging. It reminded me that the privilege of presenting the truths of the Bible to people is not one to be taken lightly. It also was encouraging to see the degree to which these Indonesian elders took seriously their responsibility for the care of the flock.
In Acts 20, we read that Paul met with the elders of the church at Ephesus. In his charge to these leaders, the apostle warned them of the danger of false teachers (vv.28-29) and the responsibility of the church leadership to help the congregation grow in the Word of God (v.32).
No matter what our calling is, lets handle the Word with care. When we do, Gods people will grow.
Thank you Alpha - It is a pleasure to be named among the Christian Patriots. May God continue to bless our President, this great Nation and our brave troops.
PRayers up for GWB and prayers for our troops.

Wonderful reminder, alpha. Thanks and may the Lord bless your life.
Thanks Brother Alpha for your prayer for our Nation.
I join you in prayer and ask the LORD especially to reveal and defeat works of darkness and expose hidden things that harbor wickedness and lies, especially in the congress and among those writing laws for this nation, and determining courses of action for us.
I ask for great Wisdom through Jesus Christ for President Bush and that the LORD would turn his heart according to his good plans and tender mercies.
I ask for Mercy and protection and wisdom for our troops.
You are our shield and exceeding great reward.
There is no Truth but yours, precious and Holy LORD.
Be our Shield and Buckler.
Let All Truth triumph.
In Jesus’ name, I confidently entrust these requests.
You are God and there is none other.
Grace, Mercy and Peace be to all the brethren.
Amen.
GODSPEED AND GODBLESS!
Thank you for the ping and prayer.
“And he shall be filled with the spirit of the fear of the Lord. He shall not judge according to the sight of the eyes, nor reprove according to the hearing of the ears.
But he shall judge the poor with justice, and shall reprove with equity for the meek of the earth. And he shall strike the earth with the rod of his mouth: and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.”
Isaias 11: 3-4
Lord God, continue to bless all those who fight for in Your name and for the cause of freedom protection from those who wish them harm. We pray for justice to be delivered by our or Your hands so that those in the service of evil will not prevail.
