I urge, then, first of all,
that 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 and holiness.
~ 1 Timothy 2:1-2

Heavenly Father –
As the anniversary of V J Day on August 14 -15, 1945, may we remember Your grace as a nation when we were united against evil on two fronts.
There was no other option but total victory. This fight was a fight with moral clarity where we were all in and had given it all we had.
We confess we’ve lost our way since then…over 75 years ago. We have prospered but decayed from within. We got our eyes on the world and have lost sight of You.
And this snapshot captures the decay since 1945:

May our eyes and hearts be opened. May we discern with all our senses:

Give us a heart of repentance. May Your people returned to Your Word. Fill us with the Spirit to revive us and produce good fruit. May we be salt and light and bring the hope of the Gospel in these dark days of decay.
And as a people, may we return to the faith of our Founding Fathers, who put their trust in You:


Amen


AMEN!
Lord, our trust in our institutions has been eroded. It illustrates to us that You are all we can really cling to. God alone. Not family or friends. Not our leaders or first responders. Not our religious leaders or our doctors. We didn’t know it, but we were always in Your hands, no matter our plans. We have never been as aware of that as we are now. We put our trust in You. Let every American be aware of You, worship You, and unite himself to You.
Jesus, I trust in You. No matter what happens, Your plan for each of us is perfect. We may feel alone, but we are not alone. You are with us, until the end of time. Hold me and my loved ones and open our minds, hearts, and souls to Your Presence. I ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen
Amen and amen!!!
Amen, Jesus we know there is an end in sight, give us wisdom to deal with all that is before us with that in mind. Restore our families and nation back to you. In Jesus Name, Amen.
Amen.
Amen, and thank you for the reminder.
My prayers always for our beloved Country. God bless.
Amen
Joining in prayer that as a nation, we would repent.
Let us be as Nineveh. Let us give up our wickedness and return to God who loves us so much, that He sent His Son to die for us, that we may have life.
our only victory is in Jesus
FATHER, our elites and selected officials are becoming
bolder and more ignorant in disobeying Your Laws, the original
laws of our land. They have turned on Your Children, stripping
from us Liberty, Freedom of religion, opportunities to defend
ourselves from thieves and those who would do us harm.
FATHER, please show mercy toward us all before we succumb to
their lies and eventually lose our nation, our way of life.
We pray You open the minds and hearts of citizens,
shining Your Light in order they might see the reality
behind the deceptions. We pray it is not too late;
that You can still hear the prayers being offered
in order to save us from our stupidity.
Thank You for all things, great and small.
In Jesus’ Name.
Amen.

Psalm 50
A Psalm of Asaph.
1 The mighty one, God the Lord,
speaks and summons the earth
from the rising of the sun to its setting.
2 Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty,
God shines forth.
3 Our God comes and does not keep silence,
before him is a devouring fire,
and a mighty tempest all around him.
4 He calls to the heavens above
and to the earth, that he may judge his people:
5 ‘Gather to me my faithful ones,
who made a covenant with me by sacrifice!’
6 The heavens declare his righteousness,
for God himself is judge.
Selah
7 ‘Hear, O my people, and I will speak,
O Israel, I will testify against you.
I am God, your God.
8 Not for your sacrifices do I rebuke you;
your burnt-offerings are continually before me.
9 I will not accept a bull from your house,
or goats from your folds.
10 For every wild animal of the forest is mine,
the cattle on a thousand hills.
11 I know all the birds of the air,*
and all that moves in the field is mine.
12 ‘If I were hungry, I would not tell you,
for the world and all that is in it is mine.
13 Do I eat the flesh of bulls,
or drink the blood of goats?
14 Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving,*
and pay your vows to the Most High.
15 Call on me in the day of trouble;
I will deliver you, and you shall glorify me.’
16 But to the wicked God says:
‘What right have you to recite my statutes,
or take my covenant on your lips?
17 For you hate discipline,
and you cast my words behind you.
18 You make friends with a thief when you see one,
and you keep company with adulterers.
19 ‘You give your mouth free rein for evil,
and your tongue frames deceit.
20 You sit and speak against your kin;
you slander your own mother’s child.
21 These things you have done and I have been silent;
you thought that I was one just like yourself.
But now I rebuke you, and lay the charge before you.
22 ‘Mark this, then, you who forget God,
or I will tear you apart, and there will be no one to deliver.
23 Those who bring thanksgiving as their sacrifice honour me;
to those who go the right way*
I will show the salvation of God.’
“””””Amen, Jesus we know there is an end in sight, give us wisdom to deal with all that is before us with that in mind. Restore our families and nation back to you. In Jesus Name, Amen.”””””
Please hear us, Oh Lord. Amen.
Amen!
In His Name, we have the Victory!
Lord, come and save us!
Amen.
