Lord God,
I thank You today that the terrible enemy of the U.S. from my childhood, Soviet Russia, has been overturned, that its many captive satellites have been freed to resume Christian society, and that Russia itself is finding its way back to Christianity. I pray that Russia has not been too insulted by our country’s feckless #Resistance to continue to recognize American Christians as their brothers and sisters, children of the same God; and that our President’s goal to forge a closer alliance with that powerful country will not continue to be thwarted, except if by Your will for our nation.
Thank You, Lord God Almighty, for Christians around the world whose spirits orbit high above the bounds of earthly restriction into Your glorious kingdom of the soul, far beyond the earth’s atmosphere—Your kingdom that stretches outward and inward towards infinity. If Yuri Gagarin said he did not see You, perhaps it is because he knew You, and that You are vaster even than what we know of outer space! For Your kingdom is “not of this world.”
Praise You, Father, and praise our dear intercessor NEWwoman for today’s inspired prayer.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.
No more clouds in the sky, no more tears to dim the eye
All is peace forevermore on that happy golden shore
What a day, glorious day that will be
And I look upon His face, the One who saved me by His grace
When He takes me by the hand and leads me through the Promised Land
What a day, glorious day that will be
No more sickness, no pain, no more parting over there
And forever I will be with the One who died for me
What a day, glorious day that will be
And I look upon His face, the One who saved me by His grace
When He takes me by the hand and leads me through the Promised Land
What a day, glorious day that will be
