PRAY for Revival & Conversion, in our Nation, Media, State & Federal Governments,& Judiciary Day 108

Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Matthew 6:25 (KJV)

Lord God, You have made all things and by You all things hold together. Nothing occurs without Your having first allowed it. We ask that You would remind us of that fact that we may have peace in our hearts in the dark days to come. You are Sovereign and our allegiance is fully on Your side. Be our guard and our warrior. Evil surrounds us on every side - from our government to the people who are blinded or actively working for evil. We need Your touch on this nation.

Your church is like Laodicea, or worse, like Sardis. Revive her. Strip her of the worldliness which she has embraced. Bring her back to Your Word and to her knees. Lord, the family of God is like wandering sheep without a shepherd. Come rescue us from our own ignorance and sin. Bring us back to our first love and sift out that which is not of us that we may be pure.

Bring spiritual awakening to the government, to the media, to the people. People who simply do not know You and are under control of Satan whether they realize it or not - need that hold broken. You are the only one who can break through. You are the only one who can save us. You are the only thing that matters.

Have us put aside our gods of money, science, humanism, choice, etc., and embrace You alone. We need You Lord - else we will surely perish. Help us Lord. Strengthen us to do whatever You would have us to do. Strengthen us that we may not be ashamed before You. And may we do exploits in the name of Jesus Christ.

And it is in that blessed name that I pray these things, Amen.

First Prayer of Congress, September 7, 1774 O - Lord our Heavenly Father, high and mighty King of kings, and Lord of lords, who dost from thy throne behold all the dwellers on earth and reignest with power supreme and uncontrolled over all the Kingdoms, Empires and Governments; look down in mercy, we beseech thee, on these our American States, who have fled to thee from the rod of the oppressor and thrown themselves on Thy gracious protection, desiring to be henceforth dependent only on Thee, to Thee have they appealed for the righteousness of their cause; to Thee do they now look up for that countenance and support, which Thou alone canst give; take them, therefore, Heavenly Father, under Thy nurturing care; give them wisdom in Council and valor in the field; defeat the malicious designs of our cruel adversaries; convince them of the unrighteousness of their Cause and if they persist in their sanguinary purposes, of own unerring justice, sounding in their hearts, constrain them to drop the weapons of war from their unnerved bands in the day of battle!

Be Thou present, O God of wisdom, and direct the councils of this honroable assembly; enable them to settle things on the best and surest foundation. That the scene of blood may be speedily closed; that order, harmony and peace may be effectually restored, and truth and justice, religion and piety, prevail and flourish amongst The people. Preserve the health of their bodies and vigor of their minds; shower down on them and the millions they here represent, such temporal blessings as Thou seest expedient for them in this world and crown them with everlasting glory in the world to come. All this we ask In the name and through the merits of Jesus Christ, Thy Son and our Savior. Amen.

— Jacob Duche

How we thank You God, that You heal our waywardness. You love us freely. Help us not only to fully accept how much You love us, but help us to abide in Your love. We are unspeakable grateful that You have demonstrated Your own love for us in this: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. You, God, loved us so much that You have given Your one and only Son. And since we believe in Him, we shall not perish but have eternal life. For You did not send Your Son into the world to condemn us but to save us through Him. In Jesus name, Amen

Amen, Blogger. This new prayer focus is exactly correct. I am in harmony with you in your petition for a mighty move of the Spirit of Truth, who convicts concerning righteousness and for doors of utterance for the body of Christ as the same Spirit emboldens us and gives us words that even our enemies are unable to refute. Father, bring to remembrance Your goodness to Your children so that they can repent and seek first Your Kingdom and Your righteousness. Sanctify us and separate us from the wide path of the world so that we can walk in the Light with You. Let the pain of the unredeemed cause them to seek sanctuary in Your truths and the arms of Your love. We confess our faith in Your ability and will to do this in Jesus’ name. Amen.

“Pray for Our Nation,” Scriptural Prayers to Revive our Country ~

“Dear Father, in the name of the Lord Jesus, we pray for our nation's economy. We know that even more than a strong military, a strong economy helps keep a nation powerful.

“Cause Congress to vote aright in these matters. Give them foresight so that provision might be made for our nation's future, not just its present.

“Father, as the people of our nation continue to finance the preaching of the gospel and help the poor all over the world, we pray that You would continue to prosper us more and more.”

And may it be, O Lord, that the Power of the Holy Spirit will sweep across this land, that the spiritually blind and deaf will be quickened, for our desire is Yours, that all men would be saved. Your children pray for the Peace of Jerusalem. Stir hearts to remember and stand with Your people, for therein is our blessing. In the Name of Jesus, Amen ...

Amen to your prayers and blessings to each of you.

Lord God, our hearts are focused upon the darkness of this present evil world, but we know that it is Your desire that we lift our eyes to You, from whence comes our help. Give us hearts to know You and to trust in Your everlasting providence as we wait for Your Spirit to move across this country. Let all those who seek You rejoice and be glad in You, and let those who love Your salvation say continually, "Let God be magnified." For Your Name shall endure forever. Your Name shall be continued as long as the sun. And men shall be blessed in You; all nations shall call You blessed. Blessed are You, our God, who only does wondrous things. In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Standing in Agreement with All the Prayers of the Saints.

Our God, how we Love You, and Sing to You our Fervent Praise. You are our King, our Lord of Mercy and Love. We Look to You, Lord; we Stand Upon Your Holy Word. Thank You, our God Who Keeps Every Promise to His Lambs.

We Ask, Your Excellency, for a Movement of Your Spirit through our Land. Please Turn the Wayward Hearts of the People to Jesus Christ. Because You are So Kind, Please Regenerate a Multitude of Souls. May Salvation be Granted to the Vilest and Worst of Men. Through Sovereign Grace, May Many Hearts Become Brand New.

Please Help us, our God; Please Rescue and Save our Land! Through Jesus, Who is our Worthiness and Life, we Cry to You for Grace. Thank You for Hearing us, our God Everlasting Love. In Jesus' Name, for the Glory of Heaven's King, amen.
