The Lord Is My Light and My Salvation Of David.
27:1 The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?
Lord we come to you in search of the light of salvation, that You have shined on your Saints.
The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
As the fear of seen and unseen calamity surrounds us, we look to You for righteous courage.
2 When evildoers assail me to eat up my flesh, my adversaries and foes, it is they who stumble and fall.
The spawn of wrath purposes the elimination of Your faith from our nation and we cry that all believers will trust in the promises of Your Eternal Kingdom.
3 Though an army encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war arise against me, yet I will be confident.
As our defenders of freedom are fighting evil in foreign lands and reprobates surround Your Church we are confident in Your Crown Rights.
4 One thing have I asked of the Lord, that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to inquire in his temple.
We pray that all Christian Patriots dwell in the arms of The Faith and determine to find only Your Word totally sufficient for all their lives.
5 For he will hide me in his shelter in the day of trouble; he will conceal me under the cover of his tent; he will lift me high upon a rock.
We pray You shelter all of our American Heroes and their families from the evil one.
6 And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me, and I will offer in his tent sacrifices with shouts of joy; I will sing and make melody to the Lord.
We pray that all believers know and believe that death was defeated at the Cross, and shout for joy in the confidence of their adoption.
7 Hear, O Lord, when I cry aloud; be gracious to me and answer me!
Lord, we pray that our supplications are instruments of Your Sovereign Will.
8 You have said, Seek my face. My heart says to you, Your face, Lord, do I seek.
Father, we look at Your Son as the Mediator of all of our requests.
9 Hide not your face from me. Turn not your servant away in anger, O you who have been my help. Cast me not off; forsake me not, O God of my salvation!
Lord, we repent of all of our transgressions and ask that You remove the devils lie that our prayers will not be heard by you, because of our unworthiness.
10 For my father and my mother have forsaken me, but the Lord will take me in.
We pray that all Christians have the holy strength to always come to the foot of the Cross and dwell only there.
11 Teach me your way, O Lord, and lead me on a level path because of my enemies.
Lord, make us believe that only Your Precepts will guide us on each of our journeys.
12 Give me not up to the will of my adversaries; for false witnesses have risen against me, and they breathe out violence.
Father, we pray that all believers walk in the Imputed Righteousness paid for each of Your adopted at The Cross and The Shield of Faith deflects all the arrows of satan.
13 I believe that I shall look upon the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living!
Lord, make all of Yours see the Kingdom surrounding them everywhere and we plead they come to believe they our truely royal subjects.
14 Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!
In peace we will live in Glory, You alone O Lord make us dwell in safety.
Soli Deo Gloria!
Know and Believe that each of your prayers are an instrument of God's Sovereign Will for our troops, family's and country!

Amen
In 1935, the debate team of Wiley College, a small and unranked black school in Texas, unexpectedly defeated the all-white championship team from the University of Southern California. This was a classic case of the unknown triumphing over a national giant.
When ancient Israel was in peril at the hands of the Philistines, there was a boy named David who actually triumphed over a giant (1 Sam. 17). The armies were drawn up on opposite sides of the Valley of Elah. They were probably afraid of one another and decided that the outcome of the battle should be determined by a battle of champions. The Philistines offered Goliath, a giant (about 9'9"), but Israel could not find anyone who was worthy or brave enough to fight. David heard of the dilemma and appealed to Saul to let him fight Goliath (vv.32-37). Saul was reluctant, but he agreed. David, armed with five smooth stones (v.40) and unswerving faith in the Almighty God (v.45), triumphed over the Philistines national champion.
We all face giants in our livesworry, doubt, fear, sin, and guilt. But with limited and unlikely resources and unswerving confidence in our all-powerful God, we too can triumph over them.
Amen.
I join in prayer for our heroes!
AMEN! AMEN! AMEN!
THX THX.
Hallelujah and amen, Alpha. Awesome, inspired prayer.
Amen to your wonderful prayer.
'Let Everything that hath Breath Praise the Lord!' (Ps.150:6)
Praise the Glorious Name of Jesus Christ our LORD and Savior! I agree with every precious Word of your blessed prayer in the Name of Jesus Christ, amen.
Beloved LORD,
May You O LORD, watch over our Troops to guide them, protect them in battle and rescue them from our enemies, when aboard and at home. Thank You, God for Your Mercy on our sinful land, may You continue to be ever merciful to America! Please hear the prayers of Your children that call out to You for mercy and help against the wickedness that "reigns" in our government. Please forgive our sins! I ask that you send a mighty revival to this country for our youth! Please send a revival to our Military! I ask all this in the Name of Jesus Christ, amen.
" To me, to live is Christ and to die is gain."
