This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His Will, He hears us. (1 John 5:14)
TURN YOUR EYES UPON JESUS!
We come with praise and thanksgiving knowing that You are always there for us. We ask for Your Divine Intervention in all facets of our lives . . . Have Your Way with us Lord, Have Thine Own Way. . . Having it any other way gets us in trouble personally and as a nation.
We are in need of admitting and feeling sorry for our sins before You and asking in belief for our forgiveness. May the people of our country wake-up to Your Goodness Mercy, and Glory!
Please God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit take control of our lives and save this nation from ruin.
In the Precious Name of Jesus we pray, Amen

Psalm 139
You have searched me, LORD, and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue you, LORD, know it completely. You hem me in behind and before, and you lay your hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain.
Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast. If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me,” even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you.
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful; I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.
How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is the sum of them! Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand— when I awake, I am still with you.
If only you, God, would slay the wicked! Away from me, you who are bloodthirsty! They speak of you with evil intent; your adversaries misuse your name. Do I not hate those who hate you, LORD, and abhor those who are in rebellion against you? I have nothing but hatred for them; I count them my enemies.
Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

WHEN YOU GO THROUGH A TRIAL, THE SOVEREIGNTY OF GOD IS THE PILLOW UPON WHICH YOU LAY YOUR HEAD (Charles Spurgeon)
Heavenly Father God, let us not be distracted or discouraged by the downhill slide of our culture, but Lord, let us remain focused on our God who is everywhere always.

Psalm 66
To the leader. A Song. A Psalm.
1 Make a joyful noise to God, all the earth;
2 sing the glory of his name;
give to him glorious praise.
3 Say to God, ‘How awesome are your deeds!
Because of your great power, your enemies cringe before you.
4 All the earth worships you;
they sing praises to you,
sing praises to your name.’
Selah
5 Come and see what God has done:
he is awesome in his deeds among mortals.
6 He turned the sea into dry land;
they passed through the river on foot.
There we rejoiced in him,
7 who rules by his might for ever,
whose eyes keep watch on the nations—
let the rebellious not exalt themselves.
Selah
8 Bless our God, O peoples,
let the sound of his praise be heard,
9 who has kept us among the living,
and has not let our feet slip.
10 For you, O God, have tested us;
you have tried us as silver is tried.
11 You brought us into the net;
you laid burdens on our backs;
12 you let people ride over our heads;
we went through fire and through water;
yet you have brought us out to a spacious place.*
13 I will come into your house with burnt-offerings;
I will pay you my vows,
14 those that my lips uttered
and my mouth promised when I was in trouble.
15 I will offer to you burnt-offerings of fatlings,
with the smoke of the sacrifice of rams;
I will make an offering of bulls and goats.
Selah
16 Come and hear, all you who fear God,
and I will tell what he has done for me.
17 I cried aloud to him,
and he was extolled with my tongue.
18 If I had cherished iniquity in my heart,
the Lord would not have listened.
19 But truly God has listened;
he has given heed to the words of my prayer.
20 Blessed be God,
because he has not rejected my prayer
or removed his steadfast love from me.
Amen!
Amen, Maudeen

Simon Khorolskiy – Крылья зари (4:11)
Original song composed by Simon Khorolskiy
Based on Psalm 139 (псалом 138)
Lyrics adapted from the Bible by Simon Khorolskiy & Zarina Kozlov

” . .Lyrics in English
O my Lord, You have searched me
And You know when I sit down,
When I rise up,
When I am traveling or resting.
You are acquainted with all my ways
There is not yet a word on my tongue,
You know all
About it, my Lord, already.
Chorus
Oh where shall I go from You?
Where shall I flee from Your presence?
If I go up to heaven,
If I descend to Sheol,
If I take the wings of the dawn
And if I dwell beyond the ocean
Your mercy will still lead me, even there
If I say the darkness will surely hide me,
Let the day around me be night,
But night as day –
Daylight and dark are same before You.
I will praise You,
All your works are so wondrous,
Your lofty knowledge I cannot attain.
They are so high –
Your vast and precious thoughts to me, my God”
