1 Timothy 2:1-4 I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone— for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.
Dear Heavenly Father,
I lift up Senator Kennedy and his family, asking for Your comforting hand and mercy to be on their lives. Lord, he has done a lot that we disagree with, a lot that we can even say transgresses Your law- but again, we are all guilty of breaking Your law and none of us deserves Your mercy and grace. Therefore, Lord, we pray for the Senator what we ourselves have been given, grace. We pray for his family that this illness may draw them all closer to You. The Kennedy family has had a tragic history, and Teddy’s malignant tumor only adds to that pain. Yet, they have also been strong through it all and can be admired for that reason. Politics aside, this is a family that needs You now. And so we pray for each of them and we pray that You will gain glory from this situation.
For it is in the beloved name of Christ Jesus my Lord that I pray these things, Amen.
Amen. I couldn’t have said it any better.
Let's pray he comes to Jesus Christ, asks Him for forgiveness and to be His Savior and accepts God's gift of grace. That's the only way one can receive it.
Beautiful post! :))))))))))
I agree...amen!!
Lord, we call upon You to deliver this man from the illness that plagues him. Hide him in the shadow of Your mighty wings until these calamities have passed. Be his strength, his shield, his stronghold, and his sure defense. Grant him excellent care from the medical personnel, and bring goodness to him even in the midst of this trial. In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Amen.
