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

To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven. (Eccles. 3:1)
All of us, living in various seasons of life, whether Nationally, Corporately, within our Families, or Spiritually, and we pray THY WILL BE DONE.
. . . a time to be born and a time to die – a time to plant and a time to uproot. We pray, Dear GOD, for the unborn, that protection and conscious will bring them to fruition and life. Bless those who are joyfully anticipating their new arrival, and pray for those in conflict and confusion, that they would choose life. We pray, Dear GOD, for those who are taking their last breath today, entering Glory or on the verge of eternity without You. Comfort, Call, and Prepare them as THY WILL BE DONE. Amen.
. . . a time to kill and a time to heal – a time to break down and a time to build. We pray, Dear GOD, as we struggle to put to death the things of the world and the things of the flesh, breaking down walls of division between first, You and us, and them one another, please through Mercy and Forgiveness, help us persevere and be whole.
. . . a time to weep and a time to laugh – a time to mourn and a time to dance. We pray, Dear GOD, for just our daily living. Help us to rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep, and be an encouragement to one another, in whatever the circumstances are.
. . . a time to cast away stones and a time to gather stones together. We pray, Dear GOD, being aware that there are appropriate times in life to damage and destroy, to conquer enemies and bring about their ruin. Alternatively, there are proper seasons for clearing out harmful and useless things to cultivate, grow, build, and protect. We pray for the Nation of Israel, as they vigorously work to defend their Country, and we pray for our Nation, as we begin to break down the political correct systems that have mutilated our County. We pray for the President and His Cabinet as they begin to rebuild America.
. . . a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing - a time to search and a time to count as lost - a time to keep and a time to discard - a time to tear and a time to mend - a time to be silent and a time to speak - a time to love and a time to hate. We Pray, Dear GOD, for the heart of the family. The struggles of relationships, the groanings of self-responsibility, the discernment of what is best and what is harmful, and GRACE to work in them all.
. . . a time for war and a time for Peace. We pray, Dear GOD, as we see the day draw near. The final battle – the ushering in of the Millennial Kingdom, THY WILL BE DONE on earth as it is in HEAVE. We pray for hearts, souls, and minds be quickened to the reality outlined in the Book of Revelation, and many, even this day, will call upon the Name of the LORD and be saved. AMEN.

Psalm 115
1 Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory,
for the sake of your steadfast love and your faithfulness.
2 Why should the nations say,
‘Where is their God?’
3 Our God is in the heavens;
he does whatever he pleases.
4 Their idols are silver and gold,
the work of human hands.
5 They have mouths, but do not speak;
eyes, but do not see.
6 They have ears, but do not hear;
noses, but do not smell.
7 They have hands, but do not feel;
feet, but do not walk;
they make no sound in their throats.
8 Those who make them are like them;
so are all who trust in them.
9 O Israel, trust in the Lord!
He is their help and their shield.
10 O house of Aaron, trust in the Lord!
He is their help and their shield.
11 You who fear the Lord, trust in the Lord!
He is their help and their shield.
12 The Lord has been mindful of us; he will bless us;
he will bless the house of Israel;
he will bless the house of Aaron;
13 he will bless those who fear the Lord,
both small and great.
14 May the Lord give you increase,
both you and your children.
15 May you be blessed by the Lord,
who made heaven and earth.
16 The heavens are the Lord’s heavens,
but the earth he has given to human beings.
17 The dead do not praise the Lord,
nor do any that go down into silence.
18 But we will bless the Lord
from this time on and for evermore.
Praise the Lord!
Amen
Amen to every word.
Amen
Let us recognize the season.
Let our lamps remain full of the oil that is Your Holy Spirit.
Amen and thank you for taking us through His Word in prayer.
Amen and amen!
Amen!
Prayer to Redeem the Time Left.
Heavenly Father, I thank You that You sought me out and saved me by the mighty power of the blood of Jesus. Lord God, I have spent so many years pleasing myself and not paying attention to Your call on my life, and I realise that I have wasted so much precious time.
Forgive me I pray, for the selfish and rebellious way I realise I have been living, and I pray that in Your grace and mercy, You would allow me to redeem the time that I have wasted. Lord, I know that I can never relive the time that has gone, but I pray that You would give me the opportunity to live my life as I should have lived, to live the rest of my life as Your bond-servant, to submit to Your leading and guiding, to focus the eyes of my heart on the Lord Jesus, and to be led by Your Spirit to do only those things that are pleasing in Your sight.
Help me to use the time I have left wisely. May I not grow weary of well-doing, but rather may I run the race of life as Paul did, to win the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Take my life and let it be separated and consecrated for You alone. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Troparion
Behold the Bridegroom comes at midnight, / and blessed is the servant whom He shall find watching, / and again unworthy is the servant whom He shall find heedless. / Beware, therefore, O my soul, do not be weighed down with sleep, / lest you be given up to death and lest you be shut out of the Kingdom. / But rouse yourself crying: Holy, Holy, Holy, are You, O our God! / Through the Theotokos have mercy on us!
Kontakion
You know that this is the last hour, O wretched soul, / and fear the cutting of the fig tree. / Work diligently therefore at the talent given to you / keep watch and pray: / Let us not remain outside the bridal chamber of Christ.
