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

Heavenly Father –
May we reflect on Reagan’s winning campaign slogan and all it meant.

We are thankful, Lord, that in dark times in our history, You have raised up leaders to deliver us from the wicked, especially the enemy within.
May we also heed this warning, from the 1984 campaign, 42 years ago:
In 2026, we have forgotten the lessons of history as we slid into the abyss of godlessness.
Only through the power the Holy Spirit, can we be lifted up from our downward spiral.
We appeal to Heaven for deliverance :
* Grant us repentance, revival, renewal, restoration.
* Raise up prayer warriors to wage spiritual battles against wickedness in high places.
* Protect President Trump, JD Vance, family, and allies and raise up godly leaders this election cycle
* Safeguard the integrity of elections and frustrate cheating
* Bestow to President Trump a special anointing in his challenges:
--- Wisdom from above
--- Power of courage and strength through the Spirit
--- Speaking with moral clarity and clear vision
--- Frustrating any dirty tricks or evil schemes
If it be Your will, Lord, Make America Great Again by us returning to You with all our heart.
And may we continue, without ceasing….:

In Jesus Name,
Amen


Amen
Amen
AMEN! thank you. Joining in prayer.
Amen, Dear NEWwoman, in Jesus Name.
AMEN!
Lord, we are a broken and fallen people. Eleven jurors in the Clancy trial do not want to convict her for murdering her children. Women are aborting their own babies every day.
Lord, we pray for these individuals who have no moral compass and no value for human life. We pray that they will look in the mirror, see their brokenness and repent.
We pray that their sins will crush them, so that while they are rubble, they will long for reconciliation with our God of mercy. We pray that they will seek Jesus Christ and pray for Him to heal their ugliness. We pray these things in His name.
Adding my prayers. God bless.
Amen, may the Lord in America be great again!
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.
In Jesus name
Amen
Martyr Gorazd of Prague, Bohemia and Moravo-Cilezsk
Troparion
Orthodox leader and restorer of the Moravian Church, / Godly chief shepherd, Father Gorazd! / With joy, you suffered for the Truth. / Pray to our gracious God to save our souls!
Kontakion
Amid currents of uncertainty, you remained in truth like the hardest diamond, / and you preached to your native land Orthodoxy — the way of salvation. / After a God-favored life as a teacher of the Gospel, O high priest and shepherd, / you patiently and bravely received the martyrs’ crown from Christ the Savior. / O Martyr, Enlightener, Father Gorazd, pray for us in the Kingdom of God.
................................
........ The German ruler of Czechoslovakia, Reinhard Heydrich, was assassinated on May 27, 1942 by a group of Czech resistance fighters who then were allowed to hide in the crypt of Saints Cyril and Methodius Orthodox Cathedral. When Bishop Gorazd learned of this he realized what great danger he and his flock were in if the Nazis uncovered this hiding place. Before leaving for Berlin to take part in the consecration of Father Philip Gardner as a bishop, he insisted that the resistance fighters leave the Cathedral and find another place of refuge. But on June 18, the hiding place was revealed after a betrayal and torture, and all members of the group were killed.
The Nazis immediately began massive reprisals........
Bishop Gorazd was arrested on June 27, 1942, tortured and executed by firing squad at the Kobylisz Shooting Range on September 4. He was 63 years old. The two Cathedral priests were also shot. Along with the priests and bishop, a total of 550 people were executed by the Nazis in reprisal for the assassination. In one particularly heinous act, the entire village of Lidice was exterminated.......
Joining in fervent prayer for Truth to be revealed and acted upon in our Government. Father God, move true patriots into positions of authority and expose and remove the enemies within our houses of Government.
Amen to your Anointed and Beautiful Prayer, Dear Servant of Jesus Christ.
Joining you in Thanksgiving, Prayer, and Praise.
