Psalm 23

1
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

Heavenly Father, you are the Lord and there is no other, you are the only God. You form the light and create darkness, you bring prosperity and create disaster. You sit on the Throne, You have control over all things, nothing happens without Your knowledge. (Isaiah 45:5-7)

People who do not understand your laws and your ways have intended to harm our nation, harm your church, harm our spirits. But we know, Lord, that the enemy has instead united us as Christians and united us as Americans through this senseless, despicable act of barbarism and persecution. And we know that You will use for good what Satan has intended for harm. (Genesis 50:20-21).

We pray, Lord, that many who find themselves afraid, overwhelmed, grieved, alone, or injured will be drawn to seek your face. We pray that you would use this situation to pour Your Spirit out upon people affected by the tragedy and show them Your face.

We pray, Lord, that you would equip the Church and all believers for the ministry that we may be called to do; empower us with a powerful witness when we are called upon to speak about or reflect upon the situation; give us words as we are called upon to comfort those around us. We especially pray for our spiritual and political leaders who are believers, and for believers in the media, that You will give them words of wisdom, easily articulated.

We ask you, Lord, to stand against the enemy with the families who have lost loved ones ,families who have missing loved ones, families who have loved ones in physical and emotional pain.

We pray, Lord, that You would give our public officials perspective, focus, physical strength, wisdom, and a realization for the need of ,and importance of, prayer.

We pray, Lord, for the perfect love that drives out fear, for all Americans.(1 John 4:18)

We thank you, Lord, for protecting our President, his wife, and all the Cabinet members. We thank you, Lord, that all our Senators and Representatives are safe. We pray that you would equip them with Your Divine wisdom and that they would be focused on the task of protecting America.

We thank you for giving us as President a man who knows you and calls upon you. We know that nothing happens by accident because You are on the Throne, and we know that it is no accident that George W. Bush is our President at this time. For this, Lord, we are grateful because he understands his place in Your order, he understands the finiteness of his wisdom and his need for You, he understands his responsibility and knows it was bestowed upon him by You. We pray for You to be with him as never before, constantly at his side protecting him, constantly strengthening his body, constantly guiding his mind, constantly guarding his heart.

We pray for ourselves, also, Lord, as we are called to minister in and through our Churches, workplaces, homes. We pray for our children, that You would give us words to explain, and that you would comfort them. We pray for national repentance, Lord, and a ferocious turning of hearts toward you.

Finally, Lord, we remember Your promise of Psalm 50:15--"Call upon me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor me."

So be it, Lord, in Your Son's Precious Name, Amen.

Dearest Heavenly Father: Please give Your children the courage to confront the evil of Islam and not allowing political correctness or the perverted definition of "tolerance" make us silent. Make us defenders of Your holiness and Your only revealed word, the Bible, as Jesus did.

Lord, we come to you, on this day of great tragedy. Lord, we acknowledge that we often do not undertstand the WHY, but we know that You did not CAUSE this, You alone are in control, and we humble ourselves before you, and ask for wisdom and direction for President George W. Bush. Thank you for a president who is not afraid to call upon you for wisdom and direction, as he directs our nation to do the same.

It's in You Holy name we pray. Amen.

Dear Heavenly Father,

I pray that you protect these United States and our people abroad. Protect Israel. Protect FDNY, NYPD, and all those involved in the rescue. Lord I pray that by your hand you would keep them from harm. Protect those at the Pentagon and speed their rescue. Protect the United States Military. Protect your servants being held captive in Afganistan. Let this nation realize that the fate of those servants in Afganistan is the will of Islam for the whole United States, Israel, and ALL non-moslems. Father, I pray you give G.W. and his counselors wisdom and that they would follow your leading. Father strengthen this great nation of yours' and let the people turn to you.

In Jesus Christ precious name.
