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

Or do you disregard the riches of His kindness, tolerance, and patience, not realizing that God’s kindness leads you to repentance? (Rom. 2:4)
What a beautiful Gift, Dear GOD, the gift of Repentance, the Gift of YOUR CALLING, the Gift of Salvation and Favor. The Gift of Your LOVINGKINDESS and LONGSUFFERING not will that any should perish, but that ALL should come to Repentance. For Isaiah 30:18 state: “Yet the LORD longs to be gracious to you; therefore He will rise up to show you compassion". Thank you, FATHER, for YOUR POWERFUL and ETERNAL MERCY and GRACE that turns sinners toward YOU, as YOU turn to them in Pity and Blessing.
So, Dear GOD, Dear FATHER, we lift up our Nation to YOU, we bring before YOU our children and our children’s children, and we speak a blessing and a prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem and the Salvation of all Israel, according to YOUR WILL, WORD, PROMISE, and ultimate GLORY, THY KINGDOM COME.
"The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace" (Numbers 6:24-26)
"Do not hide your face from me, do not turn your servant away in anger; you have been my help. Do not leave me or forsake me, O God my Savior" (Ps. 27:9)
"May God be gracious to us and bless us and make his face shine on us" (Ps. 67:1)
Thank YOU, Dear GOD: . . . that the Gift of God is Eternal Life through our LORD Jesus Christ . . . For it is by Grace you have been saved through Faith, and this not from yourselves; it is the Gift of God, not by works, so that no one can boast. To God be the Glory through Jesus Christ our Lord. AMEN.

Psalm 144
Of David.
1 Blessed be the Lord, my rock,
who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle;
2 my rock* and my fortress,
my stronghold and my deliverer,
my shield, in whom I take refuge,
who subdues the peoples* under me.
3 O Lord, what are human beings that you regard them,
or mortals that you think of them?
4 They are like a breath;
their days are like a passing shadow.
5 Bow your heavens, O Lord, and come down;
touch the mountains so that they smoke.
6 Make the lightning flash and scatter them;
send out your arrows and rout them.
7 Stretch out your hand from on high;
set me free and rescue me from the mighty waters,
from the hand of aliens,
8 whose mouths speak lies,
and whose right hands are false.
9 I will sing a new song to you, O God;
upon a ten-stringed harp I will play to you,
10 the one who gives victory to kings,
who rescues his servant David.
11 Rescue me from the cruel sword,
and deliver me from the hand of aliens,
whose mouths speak lies,
and whose right hands are false.
12 May our sons in their youth
be like plants full grown,
our daughters like corner pillars,
cut for the building of a palace.
13 May our barns be filled
with produce of every kind;
may our sheep increase by thousands,
by tens of thousands in our fields,
14 and may our cattle be heavy with young.
May there be no breach in the walls,* no exile,
and no cry of distress in our streets.
15 Happy are the people to whom such blessings fall;
happy are the people whose God is the Lord.
Amen. Joining you in prayer.
Amen to your beautiful prayer
And Lord, we lift up those who do not know You, those who continue to resist You, those who have yet to find the hope and the joy to belong in Your Kingdom.
Lord, we pray that it is Your Will to soften their hearts and help them to surrender to the only True and Living God and His Son, Jesus the Christ.
A Cry For Mercy
Oh God our Father and Creator of all, we bless and thank You that you are ruler over all and that nothing happens that You do not permit for Your greater glory. We thank You for the many blessings that You shower on the children of men, which are over and above all that we could ask or think or deserve.
Lord, we have walked away from Your laws and Your statutes. We have not loved You as we should. We have blasphemed Your works and Your ways. We have turned our backs against the glorious salvation that You have offered to each member of this rebellious race, through Your grace and favour. We have poured scorn on the Your loving-kindness and tender mercy that You extend to us day by day, and which is new every morning. We have rejected the gospel of grace and treated the sacrifice of Your only begotten Son with contempt, and we are worthy of nothing but Your wrath and fiery judgement. Father, we have sinned against heaven and before Your face and are no longer worthy to receive Your grace or forgiveness.
But Lord, You are a gracious God, long-suffering and of great mercy and we cry out to You today for our own rebellions sins and the sins of the prideful nations, which ascend to you as a putrid cloud of dark blackness. Lord, we plead Your mercy
Forgive us we pray. Forgive our neglect and our rebellion. Forgive our indifference and our pride. Forgive our unthankful hearts and our foolish ways. We are not worthy to seek Your mercy nor to beg Your forgiveness for we have been a rebellions people and the nations have unanimously turned their backs on Your will and Your ways. But look down in compassion on the human race, for we are the work of Your hand and Your Son died to redeem mankind form the pit of hell. Hear us oh Lord, as we plead for forgiveness for our many transgressions and for the sins of our own nations. Oh Lord forgive. Oh Lord have mercy. Oh Lord hear our plea and let our cry come unto to You and heal us we pray. Turn the hearts of the fools who have said in their heart there is no God, back to their Creator. Humble the hearts of rebellions men so that they see Your face and are saved. In Jesus name we pray, amen.
