Isaiah 54: 17
"No weapon that is formed against you will prosper;
And every tongue that accuses you in judgment you will condemn.
This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD,
And their vindication is from Me," declares the LORD.

[Faith]

Heavenly Father,

Long ago the prophets foretold the birth, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, Your Son. We come before You today to thank You for this season in which we celebrate His birth, and for the loving compassion You showed toward us by sending Him to be our Saviour and King. May Your Name be praised in the heavens and in all the earth and may the gift of Jesus be received by all..

We know that we are undeserving of Your love, Your mercy, and Your amazing grace. Thank You, Father, for being our God of long-suffering and patience, Who teaches us through the Word. Thank You for being our God Who speaks to us and comforts us through the power of the Holy Spirit.

We ask that the Spirit would speak clearly to our President Bush, and that his heart would be filled to overflowing with Your wisdom and truth. May he always know that You are with him, Lord, and that You will direct his path. Please cover him with Your feathers and let him safely trust in You. Help him to put on Your truth as his shield and buckler. Thank You for the courage he has shown throughout his presidency and for the strength that he continues to display with Your help. We are so grateful, Lord, that the plots and schemes of the wicked were uncovered in his recent trip to Colombia and that You protected him from the devil’s hand. We confess Your Word which tells us that no weapon formed against him shall prosper, for this is our President’s inheritance as a servant of the Lord, and his vindication is from You. Thank You, Father, for Your wonderful watch care over him and his family. We know that You are his strength, his shield, his stronghold, and his sure defense. Thank You for allowing him to dwell in the shadow of Your wings.

Father, please fill our military leaders and troops with an unwavering commitment to You and to the preservation of the freedoms enjoyed by the people of this nation. We pray that those who hate You would never be allowed to rob us of our freedom to love and worship You. Guide our troops, Lord, and help them to be strong against the true enemy. Be with every soldier and every family awaiting the safe return of their loved one. Grant great success to our troops in Iraq, Father, and be their leader every step of the way.

We humbly pray that our continued focus during this Christmas season would be upon You, Father, and upon Your Son, Jesus Christ. Yes, we have much to make ready, much to do, but help us, Lord, to remember that Precious Baby, born in a faraway place so long ago. May we keep Him in our hearts as we celebrate throughout the year, the love that came down on Christmas Day. In the Name of Jesus, our Beloved Savior and King. Amen.

[Faith]

This is the day that the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it.

"The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months. And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit" (James 5:16-18).

Heavenly Father, as You did with Elias, we pray you will hear the prayer of all who gather here. We pray for President Bush, his family, our nation, and our great military men and women who are fighting to keep this nation free and safe. Dear Lord, be with their families also, as they are making a great sacrifice also.

We ask these blessings in Your Son's Precious Name, Amen.

Your prayer was lovely, sister Faith!

Our Gracious Savior,

We Exalt You this Day, O King of Eternity, our God Whom we Love and Adore, Worship and Extol, to the Praise of Your Glory, by Your Sovereign, Everlasting Grace. Receive our Adoration, Precious Jesus our Savior, and be Honored, Magnified and Reverenced both now, and throughout the Ages of Eternity yet to come. For You have Accomplished our Salvation apart from any contribution by man or angel, that the Glory for our Eternal Redemption would Redound to You, the Only One Truly Worthy to Receive it, O God. With all our hearts we Lift Your Name High, our Glorious Lord, our Great and Mighty King!

We Remember our beloved President before You now, Pleading that Your Own Greatness, Glory and Majesty would Shine through him, Drawing many fallen sons of Adam to the Arms of their Eternal Covenant Father in Christ. Make him your Instrument of Mercy to the lost, Gracious God, helping him to Keep his eyes Fixed upon the Source of his Salvation, that he trust not in his own abilities and accomplishments. Let him Forever be known, first and foremost, O King, as a Faithful Follower of our Redeemer Jesus Christ, Unafraid and Unashamed to bear that Holy and Royal Name.

Plant an Impenetrable Hedge about him, Papa-Father, that his numerous enemies will be Frustrated and Thwarted in any Nefarious Schemes for his Destruction that have been vomited to them from the belly of the kingdom of darkness. Let him walk in the Invincibility and Power of the Most High God, Your servant Indestructible unto the Day of the Arrival of our Mighty One, Jesus Christ.

Help him, Lord-King, to lay his life before Thee daily, Immersed in Thy Presence, Thy Word, and Thy Spirit of Adoption, that You Alone will be His Life, Sweet King my Lord. Make our brother-President an Inspiration to millions of lost souls around the globe, Pointing them to the WellSpring of his Winsomness, Jesus Christ, to Whom be all Glory, Honor, Praise and Majesty throughout the Endless Eons of the Ages of Eternity, amen.

Joining you in prayer.

Sing to the King who is coming to reign
Glory to Jesus, the Lamb that was slain
Life and salvation His empire shall bring
Joy to the nations when Jesus is King

Come let us sing a song
A song declaring we belong to Jesus
He is all we need
Lift up a heart of praise
Sing now with voices raised to Jesus
Sing to the King

For His returning we watch and we pray
We will be ready the dawn of that day
We’ll join in singing with all the redeemed
‘Cause Satan is vanquished and Jesus is King

Come let us sing a song
A song declaring we belong to Jesus
He is all we need
Lift up a heart of praise
Sing now with voices raised to Jesus
Sing to the King
Sing To The King

Ps 93:1 The LORD reigns, He is clothed with majesty; The LORD is clothed, He has girded Himself with strength. Surely the world is established, so that it cannot be moved.
2 Your throne is established from of old; You are from everlasting.
3 The floods have lifted up, O LORD, The floods have lifted up their voice; The floods lift up their waves.
4 The LORD on high is mightier Than the noise of many waters, Than the mighty waves of the sea.
5 Your testimonies are very sure; Holiness adorns Your house, O LORD, forever.
(NKJV)

"Seeking the wealth of his people."
- Esther 10:3



Mordecai was a true patriot, and therefore, being exalted to the highest
position under Ahasuerus, he used his eminence to promote the prosperity
of Israel. In this he was a type of Jesus, who, upon his throne of glory,
seeks not his own, but spends his power for his people. It were well if
every Christian would be a Mordecai to the church, striving according to
his ability for its prosperity. Some are placed in stations of affluence
and influence, let them honour their Lord in the high places of the earth,
and testify for Jesus before great men. Others have what is far better,
namely, close fellowship with the King of kings, let them be sure to plead
daily for the weak of the Lord's people, the doubting, the tempted, and
the comfortless. It will redound to their honour if they make much
intercession for those who are in darkness and dare not draw nigh unto the
mercy seat. Instructed believers may serve their Master greatly if they
lay out their talents for the general good, and impart their wealth of
heavenly learning to others, by teaching them the things of God. The very
least in our Israel may at least seek the welfare of his people; and his
desire, if he can give no more, shall be acceptable. It is at once the
most Christlike and the most happy course for a believer to cease from
living to himself.
He who blesses others cannot fail to be blessed himself.
On the other hand, to seek our own personal greatness is a wicked and
unhappy plan of life, its way will be grievous and its end will be fatal.


Here is the place to ask thee, my friend, whether thou art to the best of
thy power seeking the wealth of the church in thy neighbourhood? I trust
thou art not doing it mischief by bitterness and scandal, nor weakening it
by thy neglect. Friend, unite with the Lord's poor, bear their cross, do
them all the good thou canst, and thou shalt not miss thy reward.

"And all the trees of the field will know that I am the Lord, I bring down the high tree, exalt the low tree, dry up the green tree, and make the dry tree flourish. I am the Lord, I have spoken, and I will perform it." Ez17:24

Thank you Heavenly Father, Exalted God, for salvation in Your Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. It is You, and only You, who places the kings and takes them away. Thank you so much for giving us President George W. Bush. Keep him faithful to You at all times Lord, keep him humble and submitted to you so that You can exalt him and cause him to flourish.

Please continue to go before and behind our military forces as they fight terror in various places. Let Your Gospel flourish also in the places they liberate.

Abba, Father, we cry out to you for our nation. Please, please keep wickedness and corruption far from our elected offices. Please bring evil deeds to light so they may be exposed. Please bring revival to us, our churches and our nation. Oh Father, that we might repent of our heinous sin of abortion, and have it entirely outlawed very soon.

We humbly ask also, Father, that you would raise up millions and millions to pray on May 15, that the incense of prayer would ascend to You from the saints of every nation, and that You would be pleased.

We love You and praise You, in the Name of Jesus Christ, Alpha and Omega, King of Kings and Lord of Lords, Amen

[Faith]

We’ll join in singing with all the redeemed
‘Cause Satan is vanquished and Jesus is King

Sure love those two lines especially. Thank you, LuvyaDubya.

[Faith]

The LORD on high is mightier Than the noise of many waters, Than the mighty waves of the sea.

May the Lord's Name be praised forevermore. Thank you, alpha!
