Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem
The Acts of the Apostles
(New Testament)
Colossians 1
Thanksgiving and Prayer
3 We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, 4 because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love you have for all Gods people 5 the faith and love that spring from the hope stored up for you in heaven and about which you have already heard in the true message of the gospel 6 that has come to you. In the same way, the gospel is bearing fruit and growing throughout the whole worldjust as it has been doing among you since the day you heard it and truly understood Gods grace. 7 You learned it from Epaphras, our dear fellow servant,[c] who is a faithful minister of Christ on our[d] behalf, 8 and who also told us of your love in the Spirit.
9 For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you. We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives,[e] 10 so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, 11 being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, 12 and giving joyful thanks to the Father, who has qualified you[f] to share in the inheritance of his holy people in the kingdom of light. 13 For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
(End of Scripture Passage)
After his very proper salutation, Paul launches into a prayer of thanksgiving and praise. He also emphasizes the ministerial role of ALL Christians to pray for one another, which, I am happy to say, is a very positive feature of our own "FR".

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem
Every one of us has a ministry. Even those who can't get out and preach, have no way of getting around, or even those who need to be nurtured by someone else can be a Prayer Warrior. Paul emphasizes this "assignment" as part of his Salutation in the Letter to the Colossians.
By far, the Religion Forum is the most contentious segment of the Free Republic Website. While most of the members are conservative politically, we vary in religion from Orthodox, Catholic, Protestant, Evangelical, Pentecostal, Charismatic, Jewish, Noahide, and even "none". That makes for some "lively" arguments on "that" forum. (EEK)
But there is a time when all these groups respect one another, and that is when someone asks for PRAYER. Prayer threads sometimes go into hundreds of pages, and although there are a few which offer advice rather than actual prayer, nearly all the posts are sincere and heartfelt. I experienced the incredible largess of FR's membership when my husband took his own life in 2011. There had to be nearly 1000 prayers offered on my behalf (not to mention many trees planted in Israel in my husband's honor!) and it got me through a very difficult time.
Today, I am asking you to go HERE and say a prayer for Richie. You may have already done so, but it's OK to do it again. And again.
Thank You, Dear FRiends! Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.
Because of the Lords great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for him.
Lamentations 3:22-24 (NIV)

PRAYERS ASCENDING ON HIGH FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM! And for the Preservation of the Valiant Israeli Nation!
"Saint Paul Writing His Epistles" Unknown Artist c. 1618

E give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,
Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have to all the saints, |
For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel;
Which is come unto you, as it is in all the world; and bringeth forth fruit, as it doth also in you, since the day ye heard of it, and knew the grace of God in truth:
As ye also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ;
Who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit.
For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
