Lord, we have much to be thankful for. You have been gracious, kind, and faithful to us time and again.
Looking at pictures of the president now and four years ago shows the amazing amount he has aged. He is a man who takes his responsibilities seriously, and those responsibilities are great. We ask Your protection and nurture for him and all around him, especially his family.
The war rages, and its cost is great. Please give our troops great success and great protection. Comfort all who have paid the price of freedom.
Bring America back to You, Lord, one heart at a time. Restore families, churches, and communities. Defeat the enemy, who rages against You. For it is not us who they rage against, it is You.
Give us wisdom to live for Your glory, no give no offense, and to be effective of Your purposes.
We remember the hostages, and Your persecuted throughout the world. Marana tha, Lord Jesus.
Amen and AMEN, Paul!
