FATHER GOD,

Thank You we can approach Your throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. (Hebrews 4:16)

Thank You when we don’t worry about anything, but instead, pray about everything, tell You what we need, and thank You for all You have done; we will experience Your peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. Your peace will guard our hearts and minds as we live in CHRIST JESUS. (Philippians 4:6-7)

WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS

What a FRIEND we have in JESUS, all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry everything to GOD in prayer!
What peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry everything to GOD in prayer!

Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged. Take it to the LORD in prayer.
Can we find a FRIEND so faithful Who will all our sorrows share?
JESUS knows our every weakness, Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Are we weak and heavy-laden, cumbered with a load of care?
Precious SAVIOR, still our Refuge - Take it to the LORD in prayer.
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the LORD in prayer.
In His arms He’ll take and shield thee, thou wilt find a solace there.

By Joseph M. Scriven/Charles Converse

FATHER GOD, teach us to be prayer warriors, wearing the Armor of GOD, and praying in the Name of JESUS and in the SPIRIT on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. (Ephesians 6:10-18) Help us to pray in submission to Your Will. May our prayers be filled with joy and thankfulness, knowing You hear our prayers and answer our prayers in Your perfect way and time.

Help us to meditate upon Your WORD so we can present ourselves to You as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the Word of Truth. (2 Timothy 2:15) Give us hearts for You, and hearts to pray for our enemies. May our requests, prayers, intercession, and thanksgiving be made for everyone, for kings and all those in authority that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness. (1 Timothy 2:1-2)

Teach us to pray.

In JESUS’ Name we pray. AMEN.

Dear Lord, we beseech Thee to purge the monstrous Satanic evil that has seized control of our institutions and government ! Bring these evil individuals to justice ! Strike down these wicked individuals and institutions that blatantly and audaciously lie to the public about their true (evil) intentions while painting good people as the real enemy !

Do not let these servants of darkness prevail over Your children ! Send forth Your angels to liberate us, oh, Lord ! Hear our cries and help us, please, dear Lord !

AMEN !

Apolytikion in Tone 1: Let us honor with splendor the divinely inspired theologian, the wise Serb Justin, who by the scythe of the Holy Spirit hath thrashed the error of atheism and the insolence of the Latins, being a mystic of the God-man and lover of piety, crying out: Glory to Christ Who hath glorified thee, glory to Him Who hath crowned thee, glory to Him Who hath rendered thee a luminary to those who are in a state of darkness.

Kontakion in Tone 1: We proclaim to the faithful the inexhaustible fount conveying the Orthodox doctrines, and an angel-like man full of divine zeal, the divine Justin, the offspring of the Serbs, who by his sound teachings and writings hath strengthened the faith of all in the Lord.
