Join with fellow FREEPERS to pray for AMERICA: For those in Authority in Government, Family, Military, Business, Healthcare, Education, Churches, and the Media.
This is the confidence we have in approaching God: That if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. (1 John 5:14)
Religion Forum threads labeled *Prayer* are closed to debate of any kind.
1 John 5:20
"And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true; and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life."
2 Chronicles 7:14
"...if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land."
Psalm 46:1
"God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble."
Tonight we pray first, those who are waiting to repent from their sins and turn to Savior Jesus Christ--please do so right away. Tomorrow is not guaranteed, and today we are one day closer to returning to our True Home with Christ our King. No more hesitation! Time is running out in this end of the church age. Bring to us the people seeking You so we may assist them to ask Jesus for their confession and deliverance. Provide and show us every opportunity to tell everyone of the Good News.
Next, we pray the prayer with a request You will always honor. We pray that each of Your children grow in wisdom and knowledge of Your Word. We ask that Your Holy Spirit rules our hearts and minds in a manner that grows our walk with Christ. We ask that each of us mentor at least one person new to the Kingdom to help them with this growth. If possible, Father God, make way for Bible studies in each of our communities and help us teach all about Jesus.
Abba Father, give us hearts to love others, even our enemies, the way You do. Give us eyes of compassion so we can see people the way You do. Keep our tongues under the power of Your Holy Spirit so we may speak the way You would have us speak to whomever You desire. Bless our hands to do Your work in this dying world, and bless our feet to bring us to the places where You are needed. Show us the things that are truly important, and let all the vapid meaningless things of the world fall away from our lives so we can focus our energies more on You and Your plans.
Prepare us for the coming world crisis, Father God, which will impact the United States as well. Only those who trust in You and follow the plan You have for each of us will make it through the storms. Help keep us focused on our Savior as the waves crash all around us.
In closing tonight, Holy Father, we pray for our leaders, especially those who need to know You before they leave this world. We pray that our Brothers and Sisters in Christ will be diligent in their civic duty to vote for godly candidates, and that those who love You are elected. We thank You for the exposure of corruption in our governments and institutions and pray that it continues to be uncovered. Shine the Light of Your Truth into the darkness of this dying world. In the Name of our Savior and King Jesus Christ we pray, amen.
Amen.
Amen
Prayers and Amen.

The Nativity of our Most Holy Lady the Mother of God and Ever-Virgin Mary (New Calendar)
Troparion
Your Nativity, O Virgin, / has proclaimed joy to the whole universe! / The Sun of Righteousness,1 Christ our God, / has shone from you, O Theotokos! / By annulling the curse, / He bestowed a blessing. / By destroying death, He has granted us eternal Life.
Kontakion
By your Nativity, O Most Pure Virgin, / Joachim and Anna are freed from barrenness; / Adam and Eve, from the corruption of death. / And we, your people, freed from the guilt of sin, celebrate and sing to you: / “The barren woman gives birth to the Theotokos, the nourisher of our life.”
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.
AMEN, Vilaluz. Thank you for getting the basics covered.
