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
Religion Forum Threads labeled [Prayer] are closed to debate of any kind.
Rebellion and Divine Authority: In the Torah, 250 is most famously associated with Korah's rebellion, where 250 prominent community leaders challenged the authority of Moses and Aaron. Because God judged them for this, 250 has come to symbolize rebellion against divine authority.
The Candle or Lamp (Ner): In Hebrew Gematria, 250 corresponds to the Hebrew word נר, meaning candle or lamp. It symbolizes light, hope, the enduring power of the human spirit, and the illumination of God's word.
The Organizing of the Levites: In 1 Chron. 15, 250 is the exact number of prominent Kohathite Levites who were tasked with transporting and caring for the Ark of the Covenant. In this context, it signifies religious devotion, organization, and sacred duty.
As we reflect on these events in light of the 250th Anniversary of our Nation, may we offer up prayer and petition to ALMIGHTY GOD, for HIS enduring Love, Grace and Mercy first seen through the Nation Israel and extended to all Nations through the LIVING WORD, our LORD and SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST.
Dear GOD: Indeed, our Nation is reeling in rebellion. From the most prominent Supreme Court to the little children lack of Godly disciple and instruction, our Nation is falling headlong into what we know will be the Greatest Discipline of all and Judgment upon all - The Great Tribulation. Each Day that You withhold that Great Day, You offer "today" the Day of Salvation. How we pray for those who are so lost, so deceived, so rebellious.
Dear GOD: We look at our Nation who once stood as a Light for Liberty, Freedom, and Christian Values, reflecting on what the prophets had spoken would come from following JESUS. HE has been and always will be "A Light to give Revelation to the Gentiles, and Glory to Thy people Israel." Dear JESUS, please ignite both us and Israel with the fire of the HOLY SPIRIT for we are a smoldering wick in need of YOUR HOLY BREATHE.
And Dear LORD GOD, we pray for the Church who represents Devotion, Organization and Sacred Duty to the GOSPEL. First, correct those churches who have gone astray and are teaching another gospel, but NOT the GOSPEL that SAVES. A social gospel that panders to sin, and leaves the people dead in their trespasses. Dear JESUS, bless those churches who are faithful to YOU with an abundance of Grace and Instruction so that the harvest is plentiful. Dear JESUS, protect Your Lambs who are out among the wolves.
ALMIGHTY GOD, we do not know the hour or the day - but we know YOU and JESUS CHRIST WHOM YOU HAVE SENT - therefore, ETERNAL LIFE is our future. For that we THANK YOU, PRAISE YOU, LOVE YOU and WORSHIP YOU, now and forever. AMEN.

Psalm 91
1 You who live in the shelter of the Most High,
who abide in the shadow of the Almighty,*
2 will say to the Lord, ‘My refuge and my fortress;
my God, in whom I trust.’
3 For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler
and from the deadly pestilence;
4 he will cover you with his pinions,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.
5 You will not fear the terror of the night,
or the arrow that flies by day,
6 or the pestilence that stalks in darkness,
or the destruction that wastes at noonday.
7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
8 You will only look with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.
9 Because you have made the Lord your refuge,*
the Most High your dwelling-place,
10 no evil shall befall you,
no scourge come near your tent.
11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways.
12 On their hands they will bear you up,
so that you will not dash your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the adder,
the young lion and the serpent you will trample under foot.
14 Those who love me, I will deliver;
I will protect those who know my name.
15 When they call to me, I will answer them;
I will be with them in trouble,
I will rescue them and honour them.
16 With long life I will satisfy them,
and show them my salvation.
Adding my prayers, always. God bless.
Amen, Jeanbl
