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. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus.
1 Timothy 2:1-4

Thanks so much for your prayers for law enforcement. Very much appreciated!
Abba Father, we thank you for those in law enforcement, civilian and military, protecting our nation.
Thank you for their willingness to answer the call to protect and serve, and for their dedication to the safety, well-being, and protection of others.
Father we ask that You keep watch over them. Defend them day by day with your heavenly grace; strengthen them in their trials and temptations; fill them with wisdom for the decisions they face; give them courage to handle the perils before them; and grant them a sense of your abiding presence wherever they may be.
Father God, You know their days are filled with uncertainties and unknowns as they make quick and often life-changing or life-threatening decisions. Help them to be wise and invoke all their training and experience before acting or speaking. Help them remember their protocols and give them the courage to do the right thing for the best outcome.
Father God, grant them compassion when they determine there is no ill intent but also a keen awareness for deception. Help them to see all people as Your image bearers, and don’t let their hearts become hardened and calloused by the challenging people and situations they encounter daily.
Lord, bring unity and synergy to them as they guard each other’s lives while working together to keep the streets of their communities safe and free of crime. Lord bless them mightily as they persevere in the difficult task of protecting and defending our communities.
In Jesus’ Name we pray, amen.

Fathers of the First Six Ecumenical Councils
Commemorated on July 13
Troparion
You are most glorious, O Christ our God, / You have established the Fathers as lights upon the earth, / and through them, You have guided all of us to the true Faith! / O greatly compassionate one, glory to You.
Kontakion
The preaching of the Apostles and the dogmas of the Fathers have confirmed one faith for the Church; / and She, clad in the garment of truth woven from heavenly theology, / teaches aright and glorifies the great mystery of piety.
Dear Lord, thank You for our Bishops and our Priests—all who teach us the Faith, hear our Confessions, and administer to us the Holy Sacraments! AMEN.
Amen !!! <><
Psalm 15
A Psalm of David.
1 O Lord, who may abide in your tent?
Who may dwell on your holy hill?
2 Those who walk blamelessly, and do what is right,
and speak the truth from their heart;
3 who do not slander with their tongue,
and do no evil to their friends,
nor take up a reproach against their neighbours;
4 in whose eyes the wicked are despised,
but who honour those who fear the Lord;
who stand by their oath even to their hurt;
5 who do not lend money at interest,
and do not take a bribe against the innocent.
Those who do these things shall never be moved.
In agreement with you and His Word. Thank You, Father, for these servants of Yours for our protection.
Thank you.
Thank-you. Amen!
