AMERICA PRAYER VIGIL - 5/23/2020 [PRAYER]

Free Republic ^ | 5/22/2020

[Maudeen]

PLEASE JOIN IN PRAYER!

Heavenly Father, We come humbly before Your Presence and are earnestly asking for Your intervention i in these troubled times. It is so bizarre and far reaching what is happening in America.

We pray for a mighty hedge of protection for President Trump and Vice-President Pence and those who are seeking Your Wisdom and Direction for truth and justice. The spirit of America has been shattered by man’s self-indulgence for power . . . taking advantage of a crisis for personal gain. We come against such dereliction of duty in the Name of Jesus. We pray that people all across America will put their faith and trust in You . . . for You, Father God are All-Knowing, Ever-Present, and All-Powerful . . . a very present help in times of trouble and sorrow.

We pray also for the protection and perseverance for those who sacrificially have answered the call to defend our country and also provide comfort and care for those afflicted and affected by the virus both physically and mentally. We also come in agreement for the hope, safety and restoration from the storms and floods. This has been a time of mass confusion and sorrow.

We pray that evil in this country is diminished, that people come to their senses realizing that Yours is the Only Way in life. We pray that Christians everywhere are taking this pandemic as an opportunity to witness about Your Saving Grace realizing that as believers The Holy Spirit came at the moment of our Salvation to live permanently within us. He is there to lead and guide us, teach us and comfort us. Thank You, Holy Spirit. Forgive us when we go it alone . . . how foolish we are when You are always there.

The virus has taken our attention away from the events of the Middle East. We pray for Your intervention in the attacks on Your most favored nation Israel. We pray that United States of America will forever formidably provide support.

As we approach the Memorial Day weekend, may we reflect on those men and women who gave their lives and the many families who sacrificed for the cost of freedom . . .freedom that has over the last few decades been abused and taken for granted. Let this be a time of remembrance and thanksgiving . . . and most of all a time of remembrance of our Savior Jesus Who paid the ultimate price . . .His Life for the sins of all.

It is such a blessing that we can come corporately on Free Republic to pray for our country and one another. Let this be a time of spiritual renewal and revival. We pray this all in the Precious Name of Jesus, Amen

HERE ARE SOME SCRIPTURES TO SHARE ESPECIALLY WITH THOSE WHO ARE TRYING TO COPE WITH FEAR AND ANXIETY.

HERE’S WHERE TO LOOK WHEN. . .

YOU ARE LONELY: (John 14:18) I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. (Revelation 3:20) Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with Me. (2 Corinthians 6:18) And, “I will be a Father to you, and you will be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.”

YOU ARE AFRAID: (Luke 12:29-32) And do not set your heart on what you will eat or drink; do not worry about it. For the pagan world runs after all such things, and your Father knows that you need them. But seek His kingdom, and these things will be given to you as well. “Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom.” (Hebrews 13:6) So we say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?” (John 14:27) Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

YOU HAVE PROBLEMS THAT SEEM TOO BIG FOR YOU TO HANDLE: (John 16:33) “I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” (Matthew 11:28) “Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” (Romans 8:28) And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.

YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO: (1 Peter 5:7) Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you. (James 1:5-6) If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, Who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. (Philippians 4:9) Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

YOU HAVE LOST HOPE (John 3:16) For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. (Isaiah 43:2-3) When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior; I give Egypt for your ransom, Cush and Seba in your stead. (Philippians 4:19) And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of His glory in Christ Jesus.

Psalm 124

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

1 If it had not been the Lord who was on our side
—let Israel now say—
2 if it had not been the Lord who was on our side,
when our enemies attacked us,
3 then they would have swallowed us up alive,
when their anger was kindled against us;
4 then the flood would have swept us away,
the torrent would have gone over us;
5 then over us would have gone
the raging waters.

6 Blessed be the Lord,
who has not given us
as prey to their teeth.
7 We have escaped like a bird
from the snare of the fowlers;
the snare is broken,
and we have escaped.

8 Our help is in the name of the Lord,
who made heaven and earth.

Gracefully Broken

Take all I have in these hands
And multiply, God, all that I am
And find my heart on the altar again
Set me on fire, set me on fire
[repeat]

Here I am, God, arms wide open
Pouring out my life, gracefully broken

My heart stands in awe of Your name
Your mighty love stands strong to the end
You will fulfill Your purpose for me
You won't forsake me, You will be with me

Here I am, God, arms wide open
Pouring out my life, gracefully broken
Here I am, God, arms wide open
Pouring out my life, gracefully broken
Oh, gracefully

All to Jesus now, all to Jesus now
Holding nothing back, holding nothing back
I surrender, I surrender
I surrender, I surrender

Here I am, God, arms wide open
Here I am, here I am
Pouring out my life, gracefully broken
Pouring out my life again
Here I am, God, arms wide open
Pouring out my life, gracefully broken

Here I am, God, arms wide open
Pouring out my life, gracefully broken
