Join with fellow FREEPERS to pray for AMERICA: For those in Authority in Government, Family, Military, Business, Agri-Business; End to Sex Slavery; Healthcare, Education, Churches, and the Media.

2 Timothy 4
I solemnly urge you in the presence of God and Christ Jesus, who will someday judge the living and the dead when he comes to set up his Kingdom: 2 Preach the word of God. Be prepared, whether the time is favorable or not. Patiently correct, rebuke, and encourage your people with good teaching.
3 For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and wholesome teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look for teachers who will tell them whatever their itching ears want to hear. 4 They will reject the truth and chase after myths.
5 But you should keep a clear mind in every situation. Don’t be afraid of suffering for the Lord. Work at telling others the Good News, and fully carry out the ministry God has given you.
Dear Lord Jesus, prepare our hearts to become bold, no matter what the national political outcome is, for we see that we may be closer to the time of the Great Tribulation than we imagined.
With that in mind, we can not neglect to pray for those who are doing battle politically for our nation.
Lord Jesus, we lift up Donald Trump and all those who are opposing this dangerous slide into a government that has abandoned your moral standard.
Lord Jesus, we pray for justice for those who are falsely accused. We also pray that the scenario painted by the media of deceit be exposed and crumble apart.
Lord Jesus, we pray that your people would be beacons of light in this dark day, that we would be about the Lord's business in helping those in our communities.
Awaken Your people Lord.
In Jesus Name we pray, Amen.
Please join us in prayer!
Please join us in prayer!
Amen.
Amen
Amen.
Amen to your prayer.
During this chaotic time of upheaval in this world, I was led to ponder the lyrics of this old hymn.
HISTORY
The Story Behind Trust and Obey: the rewards of trusting God’s word and obeying God’s will
John H. Sammis was the writer of the Christian hymn Trust and Obey in 1887 with music composed by Daniel Towner the year before. Sammis was a man of business who later turned to preaching for a Presbyterian church. He also became a teacher at the Bible Institute of Los Angeles.
The inspiration for this hymn began in 1886 when the composer of the music, Daniel B. Towner, was the music conductor during one of Dwight L. Moody’s renowned revivals. Towner offered the following testimony cited by Moody’s musical partner, Ira D. Sankey, in his biography, My Life and the Story of the Gospel Hymns:
“Mr. Moody was conducting a series of meetings in Brockton, Massachusetts, and I had the pleasure of singing for him there. One night a young man rose in a testimony meeting and said, ‘I am not quite sure—but I am going to trust, and I am going to obey.’ I just jotted that sentence down and sent it with a little story to the Rev. J. H. Sammis, a Presbyterian minister. He wrote the hymn, and the tune was born.”
1 When we walk with the Lord
in the light of his word,
what a glory he sheds on our way!
While we do his good will,
he abides with us still,
and with all who will trust and obey.
Refrain:
Trust and obey, for there’s no other way
to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.
2 Not a burden we bear,
not a sorrow we share,
but our toil he doth richly repay;
not a grief or a loss,
not a frown or a cross,
but is blest if we trust and obey. [Refrain]
3 But we never can prove
the delights of his love
until all on the altar we lay;
for the favor he shows,
for the joy he bestows,
are for them who will trust and obey. [Refrain]
4 Then in fellowship sweet
we will sit at his feet,
or we’ll walk by his side in the way;
what he says we will do,
where he sends we will go;
never fear, only trust and obey. [Refrain]

Dear Lord Jesus, prepare our hearts to become bold, no matter what the national political outcome is, for we see that we may be closer to the time of the Great Tribulation than we imagined.

Psalm 106 (16-27)
16 They were jealous of Moses in the camp,
and of Aaron, the holy one of the Lord.
17 The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan,
and covered the faction of Abiram.
18 Fire also broke out in their company;
the flame burned up the wicked.
19 They made a calf at Horeb
and worshipped a cast image.
20 They exchanged the glory of God*
for the image of an ox that eats grass.
21 They forgot God, their Saviour,
who had done great things in Egypt,
22 wondrous works in the land of Ham,
and awesome deeds by the Red Sea.*
23 Therefore he said he would destroy them—
had not Moses, his chosen one,
stood in the breach before him,
to turn away his wrath from destroying them.
24 Then they despised the pleasant land,
having no faith in his promise.
25 They grumbled in their tents,
and did not obey the voice of the Lord.
26 Therefore he raised his hand and swore to them
that he would make them fall in the wilderness,
27 and would disperse* their descendants among the nations,
scattering them over the lands.
Joining in prayer. God bless.
Amen! Please Lord, let it be Your will!
