L E S S O N S

Romans 12:12 Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.

Phillipians 4:6-7 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Mark 11:25-26 “And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses. But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses.”

1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Matthew 18:19 “Again I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.”

Romans 8: 26: Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

Hebrews 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

P R A Y E R

Holy Father God,

You Who sees all, knows all hearts, creates all things, sets up kings and nations and takes them down again, You fount of love, mercy, miracles and grace,

Hear our prayer.

We join with multitudes of the faithful on this National Day of Prayer, dedicating our hearts to the unity of the Spirit.

In these times of dissention, make us instruments of Your peace, Lord God, that we may serve to help unify our troubled nation. We may not know how You would have us pray for this long-desired restoration of unity amongst our People; but we believe that You know!—and that the Spirit intercedes through us.

The sins of our nation weigh heavily upon us—blasphemy, persecution, injustice, sexual sins, abortion, willful ignorance and lawlesness. We hate these offences to Your Divine Heart and Mind, Lord God. Help us to help the sinners, even confessing our own weaknesses and failings whenever we pray. Help us share the gospel of repentance, forgiveness of sins and the life everlasting.

We pray, dear Lord, for strength and conviction for our President, Vice President, all their administration and their families, and for every Christian undergoing persecution for Your name's sake wherever they may be in the Body of Christ.

May this special Day of Prayer wash over and cleanse our institutions of government, education, health care, commerce, media, communities, homes and churches! Drive the devil from our midst by Your miraculous unseen Power and Love! Bring Your righteousness and Protection over all our military men and women and their families, that our prayers today and every day may touch their hearts and give them fortitude and peace.

Safeguard the many gatherings of prayer around the nation as they come and go today, Father; and may the healing force of Spirit flow generously amongst them and outward to the saved and to the unsaved.

In Jesus' holy name we pray,

Amen!

We Gather Together to Ask the Lord’s Blessing

We gather together to ask the Lord’s blessing
He chastens and hastens His will to make known
The wicked oppressing now cease from distressing
Sing praises to His Name; He forgets not His own.

Beside us to guide us, our God with us joining
Ordaining, maintaining His kingdom divine
So from the beginning the fight we were winning
The Lord was at our side, all glory be Thine!

We all do extol Thee, Thou Leader triumphant
And pray that Thou still our Defender will be
Let Thy congregation escape tribulation
Thy Name be ever praised! O Lord, make us free!

Amen, Albion Wilde

Joining in prayer on this National Day of Prayer for our beloved America, which has been relentlessly attacked on all fronts by the Evil One.

We intercede from those unjustly impugned, bankrupted, intimidated, extorted by the Deep State’s gross abuse of power through the Mueller Witch Hunt.

Protect the President, Vice President, their families, staff, friends, and supporters. Deliver them from the snares of the Evil One.

We ask for justice and mercy, Lord. May the political machinations of the enemy within be uncovered and frustrated.

And most of all, Lord, grant Your people a heart of repentance. Spark a revival in our hearts. Pour out Your Spirit in our land.

May Your marvelous works be glorified in our nation that trusts in You, Lord.

In Jesus Name
Amen

Psalm 86

A Prayer of David.

1 Incline your ear, O Lord, and answer me,
for I am poor and needy.
2 Preserve my life, for I am devoted to you;
save your servant who trusts in you.
You are my God; 3be gracious to me, O Lord,
for to you do I cry all day long.
4 Gladden the soul of your servant,
for to you, O Lord, I lift up my soul.
5 For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving,
abounding in steadfast love to all who call on you.
6 Give ear, O Lord, to my prayer;
listen to my cry of supplication.
7 In the day of my trouble I call on you,
for you will answer me.

8 There is none like you among the gods, O Lord,
nor are there any works like yours.
9 All the nations you have made shall come
and bow down before you, O Lord,
and shall glorify your name.
10 For you are great and do wondrous things;
you alone are God.
11 Teach me your way, O Lord,
that I may walk in your truth;
give me an undivided heart to revere your name.
12 I give thanks to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart,
and I will glorify your name for ever.
13 For great is your steadfast love towards me;
you have delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol.

14 O God, the insolent rise up against me;
a band of ruffians seeks my life,
and they do not set you before them.
15 But you, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.
16 Turn to me and be gracious to me;
give your strength to your servant;
save the child of your serving-maid.
17 Show me a sign of your favour,
so that those who hate me may see it and be put to shame,
because you, Lord, have helped me and comforted me.

Lord Jesus Christ,

Sometimes it’s hard to know where to begin or how to pray. We just know we have a deep ache in our hearts that cries out for your great mercy and a longing to see you heal our land. But we know you are faithful, no matter how we feel, and over all that swirls around us in our nation today.

We also know that the same power that broke prison chains, raised Lazarus from the dead, and parted the Red Sea, the same power that healed the blind man, and delivered the delirious from demons, that same power is at work still today.....for you are the same. Yesterday, today, and forever.

We understand there’s great power in uniting together, turning our hearts towards you, and praying on behalf of America, our nation and remembering today this powerful truth upon which this nation was founded....that we are “One Nation Under God.”.....and that you are where our real hope is found,... not in our leaders, ..not in our economy,.. not in the condition of our nation today or any other day....but that our hope comes from You.

“For kingship belongs to the Lord, and he rules over the nations.” Ps. 22:28......It is “God who changes the times and seasons; He sets up kings and deposes them. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning.” Dan. 2:21

So we pray that you would unify your people for the glory of your Name,.. that all who call themselves Christians would rise up, believing your great Truths.

We also pray for all those in authority, that you would give them ‘your’ wisdom and discernment as they lead and that you would continue to appoint strong, faithful men and women to serve this nation and our people.

Thank you that you are strong and mighty. Thank you that you are for us and that you fight for us still today. Bring honor to your Name, Oh Lord, for You alone are worthy.

In the Powerful Name of Jesus we pray,
Amen.

Amen! Heavenly Father, help us not to lose heart with all the attacks being made against our president, his aides, and conservatives in general. We know that You are far more powerful than the evil one and Your Will shall be done. Open the eyes of Stormy Daniels to see the life you intended for her to live vs the life she is currently leading. Bless President Trump’s legal team with wisdom. And give our president heavenly knowledge in how to negotiate with Kim Jong-un. We praise Your Holy Name. Let Your Will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

For any of you who may have missed the opportunity to pray with others today on the National Day of Prayer, here is the prayer sent out by the NDoP Task Force to pastors and intercessors throughout the nation. It's never too late to pray along!


2018 National Day of Prayer

Our Dear Heavenly Father, while we come to You in complete humility, we also come to You with boldness in the authoritative name of Your One and Only Son, Jesus Christ, who is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. In Jesus’ name, fill us now with Your Holy Spirit and lead us as we pray in Jesus’ name for America.

Oh God, we are burdened for our nation today. We turn from the sins that we have committed against your Word and your Name. We turn away from our contentious words and ways toward one another that has led us to division and polarization. We turn away from our disrespect and lack of dignity toward each other, and we turn away from our continual devaluation of all human life from the womb until death in this world. We also turn away from and refuse to participate in skepticism, criticism, and cynicism in our nation. We turn away from anything that divides us, and we run toward the gospel of Jesus Christ that is the only thing that has the power to unite us together.

Lord, in this critical hour in our nation, we pray for unity in America. Only You can bring unity, harmony, and oneness in America. As your Word calls us in Ephesians 4:3, “Making every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace”, we ask You to empower us to make every effort to live in unity, to call for unity, and to forward unity in America continually.

We pray for the churches in America to unify in Jesus Christ and to pray as one unified spiritual family for America. May Your Church pray for America passionately, perpetually, privately, and publicly.

We pray for God’s power to unify families, workplaces, communities, and cities in America. By Your Spirit, lead us to forgiveness, reconciliation, healing, and unity.

We pray for people of all ethnicities and races in America to come together as one, living in peace and unity together. Oh Lord, because each of us is created in Your image, please give us the courage to stand against all racial and ethnic division, denouncing it as evil and sinful, while simultaneously coming together in unity with all persons knowing this is God’s will for us.

We pray in unity for the security of our nation. We ask You to preserve the United States of America from the forces of evil that are threatening our lives and our future. God, please guard all persons in public and private settings from anyone or anything that desires to harm us or take our lives. Our future is in Your hands.

We agree clearly, unite visibly, and pray extraordinarily for the next Great Spiritual Awakening in America. Oh Lord, wake up Your church spiritually and convict Your people to agree clearly, unite visibly, and pray extraordinarily until the next Great Spiritual Awakening occurs in our generation.

Oh God, we stand together upon Your words in Psalm 133:1, “How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in harmony.” Through Jesus’ name and by the Holy Spirit’s power, we pray for all Americans to unify and to live together in unity.

In the mighty and majestic name of Jesus Christ who is the Only Savior and the Only Hope in this world, we pray. Amen.

Dr. Ronnie Floyd

FATHER GOD, As millions of Americans turned their faces to You to on The National Day of Prayer, have mercy upon us. Forgive us. Revive us. Come heal our land.

Thank You for being the GOD of second chances. Thank You for Your great love to us that You would send Your Son JESUS CHRIST to pay the penalty for our sins.

Only JESUS can Make America Great Again. LORD, hear our cries. Our hope and trust are in You.

In JESUS' Name we pray. Amen.

A sad turnout for our area NDP. If Stormy rode into town, the place would have been packed IMHO. We have come this far. . . .we are reaping the whirlwind from past generations.
