The “Donald Trump/Mike Pence Prayer Vigil” and “Heroes and Nation Prayer Thread” have combined to form the AMERICA PRAYER VIGIL prayer thread!
Join with fellow FREEPERS to pray for our President and Vice President and for AMERICA: Government, Family, Military, Business, Education, Churches, and the Media.
This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.

Heavenly Father –
November, may we remember the somber events in our republic. Especially involving two presidents who were assassinated. A bloody, divisive Civil War and the Cold War of opposing philosophies of East and West.
Abraham Lincoln:
November 19, 1863, during the height of the Civil War gave his iconic speech: How Lincoln Changed the World in Two Minutes
Reminding us that equality and freedom are rights given by God.
John F. Kennedy:
November 22, 1963—a hundred years after the Gettysburg Address—during the Cold War, President Kennedy was assassinated as the world watched. Regardless of politics, a president was removed in a most violent way, robbing us of our democratically elected leader. Though imperfect as all our leaders, JFK inspired us:
Donald J. Trump:
Likewise, we are in divisive times like the Civil War. And the political and character assassinations are non-stop from the enemy within.
We lift up President Trump to Your protection, Father. And cling to the promise.
May the evil plans and political machinations of the enemy within be frustrated and come to nothing.
Thanksgiving
And may we reflect as we come upon Thanksgiving that we have so much to thankful for. And reflect upon our Judeo-Christian values and remember who we are:
For You, Lord, are the source of our blessings. Our guidance in a dark world..
And if it be Your will, may America shine Your Light in dark days. And through Your Spirit, restrain evil in the world until the blessed coming of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.
In Jesus Name we pray,
Amen
Amen!!
Lord, how far America has strayed since the time a Thanksgiving prayer could be said in earnest on the #1 TV show. Forgive us we pray.
Jesus, TURN THE HEARTS OF THE FATHERS BACK TO THE CHILDREN, and the disobedient to the attitude of the righteous..Luke 1:17
Amen!!
Psalm 37
Of David.
1 Do not fret because of the wicked;
do not be envious of wrongdoers,
2 for they will soon fade like the grass,
and wither like the green herb.
3 Trust in the Lord, and do good;
so you will live in the land, and enjoy security.
4 Take delight in the Lord,
and he will give you the desires of your heart.
5 Commit your way to the Lord;
trust in him, and he will act.
6 He will make your vindication shine like the light,
and the justice of your cause like the noonday.
7 Be still before the Lord, and wait patiently for him;
do not fret over those who prosper in their way,
over those who carry out evil devices.
8 Refrain from anger, and forsake wrath.
Do not fret—it leads only to evil.
9 For the wicked shall be cut off,
but those who wait for the Lord shall inherit the land.
10 Yet a little while, and the wicked will be no more;
though you look diligently for their place, they will not be there.
11 But the meek shall inherit the land,
and delight in abundant prosperity.
12 The wicked plot against the righteous,
and gnash their teeth at them;
13 but the Lord laughs at the wicked,
for he sees that their day is coming.
14 The wicked draw the sword and bend their bows
to bring down the poor and needy,
to kill those who walk uprightly;
15 their sword shall enter their own heart,
and their bows shall be broken.
16 Better is a little that the righteous person has
than the abundance of many wicked.
17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken,
but the Lord upholds the righteous.
18 The Lord knows the days of the blameless,
and their heritage will abide for ever;
19 they are not put to shame in evil times,
in the days of famine they have abundance.
20 But the wicked perish,
and the enemies of the Lord are like the glory of the pastures;
they vanish—like smoke they vanish away.
21 The wicked borrow, and do not pay back,
but the righteous are generous and keep giving;
22 for those blessed by the Lord shall inherit the land,
but those cursed by him shall be cut off.
23 Our steps* are made firm by the Lord,
when he delights in our* way;
24 though we stumble,* we* shall not fall headlong,
for the Lord holds us* by the hand.
25 I have been young, and now am old,
yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken
or their children begging bread.
26 They are ever giving liberally and lending,
and their children become a blessing.
27 Depart from evil, and do good;
so you shall abide for ever.
28 For the Lord loves justice;
he will not forsake his faithful ones.
The righteous shall be kept safe for ever,
but the children of the wicked shall be cut off.
29 The righteous shall inherit the land,
and live in it for ever.
30 The mouths of the righteous utter wisdom,
and their tongues speak justice.
31 The law of their God is in their hearts;
their steps do not slip.
32 The wicked watch for the righteous,
and seek to kill them.
33 The Lord will not abandon them to their power,
or let them be condemned when they are brought to trial.
34 Wait for the Lord, and keep to his way,
and he will exalt you to inherit the land;
you will look on the destruction of the wicked.
35 I have seen the wicked oppressing,
and towering like a cedar of Lebanon.*
36 Again I* passed by, and they were no more;
though I sought them, they could not be found.
37 Mark the blameless, and behold the upright,
for there is posterity for the peaceable.
38 But transgressors shall be altogether destroyed;
the posterity of the wicked shall be cut off.
39 The salvation of the righteous is from the Lord;
he is their refuge in the time of trouble.
40 The Lord helps them and rescues them;
he rescues them from the wicked, and saves them,
because they take refuge in him.
Wow thank you for reminders of Gettysburg Address and anniversary of JFK’s passing.
Prayers for a revival of ASPIRATION among our nation’s citizenry.
As per Kennedy’s ‘Moon Speech’ :
“Many years ago the great British explorer George Mallory, who was to die on Mount Everest, was asked why did he want to climb it. He said, “Because it is there.”
Well, space is there, and we’re going to climb it, and the moon and the planets are there, and new hopes for knowledge and peace are there. And, therefore, as we set sail we ask God’s blessing on the most hazardous and dangerous and greatest adventure on which man has ever embarked.”

AMEN!
Amen
Amen.
All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God.
Therefore we do not lose heart.
Father God,
We thank You for all of the blessings and the mercy You have poured upon this nation. We especially thank You for the warrior President Trump.
May those who fight against this President, the Constitution, the Republic, the rule of law, and Your Word be convicted of their wrong thinking. May they grieve themselves as they are grieving the Holy Spirit. May they repent of their rebellion, lest they be destroyed.
We ask these things in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.
Praying with you, Dear NEWwoman, in Jesus Holy Name, Amen.

Lord God, we pray for protection for our POTUS and all those who protect him.
As it was in the past:
How the Pilgrims and Reformation Formed America
America continues to call upon YOU in our hours of need.
We are nothing without You.
Thank You, my FATHER. Please continue to watch us
diligently as we travel the road filled with
demons who which to see us go under.
You presented a warrior to fight for us.
We pray he will do Your will in eliminating
the moles which make the foundation of
this nation highly unstable.
Please give him the necessities to erase Socialism,
Satan’s curse, from this world.
As always, we pray for our brethren, ill
and injured, that they be healed in spirit, mental,
and physical health.
“He calls them by name” Amen.
