Dear Heavenly Father, we come to You with thanksgiving and joy that we live in a free land where we can pray and worship You as we please. We thank You that You have blessed this nation so richly in every area of our existence. We thank You for the wisdom of the Founding Fathers in their acknowledgement that You are the Almighty, and that You are the basis on which we must govern and live.

We also thank You, dearest Lord, for our President, and for Your mercy on us in allowing him to lead America for another four years. We thank You that he knows You as Lord of his life, and as Savior, and that he puts his trust in You. We thank You for his strength of leadership, and his moral courage and clarity in leading us in trying times. We ask that You might continue to speak to him, and give him the guidance and wisdom that he seeks from You.

We ask that You might continue to grant him and Laura safety and protection as they travel in Canada, and that You might bless this time they have together. We ask that in his second term, that the people around the world who have been lied to about him and distrust him, would see President Bush as he really is; Your servant, and would understand that he is humble and gracious. We thank You for the successful trip he has had thus far, and ask that You would continue to guide his steps in the coming days.

Father, we continue also to lift up our brave and courageous military, especially those who are serving in harm's way in Afghanistan and Iraq. How we thank You that so many of our young men and women are willing to serve this country, and sacrifice their own personal lives for the sake of our freedom! We are truly blessed by them, and thank You for their service! Be especially with them as they are far from home and loved ones this Christmas season. Help them to feel Your loving presence with them, and ease their loneliness, and that of their families as they suffer this separation. Be particularly with the families of those who have fallen during this time, and help them to get through the Christmas season as You lift them in Your loving arms and carry them through.

We also continue to pray for this nation. We know that there are those who seek to do us harm, but we will not be afraid, for they can do nothing to us because You are with us. We ask Your forgiveness for the sins of this nation, and we pray that we might move back toward a culture that honors life and truth and righteousness. We thank You for sending Your Son, Jesus as a baby, but we are mindful that He grew to be a man, spotless and without sin, and sacrificed His life for our redemption. We praise You and ask these things in the Name of the Incarnate Christ, Amen!

Wars are not won on the battlefield. They're won on our knees.

Our Merciful Master,

We come before You, O Glorious God, Secure in Your Mercy and Love for us, Joyously Thanking You for the Spiritual and Temporal Blessings You have Poured out upon us. Before You even Created the Earth, You Loved us, and Determined to Send Your Son to us to Save us from our Every Iniquity You Knew we would Someday Commit. How Great is Your Love toward sinners, O God! You have Had Pity upon us, Delivering us from this Present evil world, and Giving us to Your Son, as a Mighty Army of Worshippers, a Group so Vast and Large we cannot be Numbered. We will Exalt You for Your Praiseworthy Sacrifice, O Christ, throughout Endless Eternities to come, because You have Graced us, Plucking us from the kingdom of darkness and evil. Eternal Honor belongs to You, Jesus Christ, our Redeemer, our Creator, our Deliverer, and our Mighty God!

We are Filled with Gratitude Anew, Great King, for Your Giving our brother-President back to us for the next four Blessed years, a Grace-Gift we did not Deserve at all. How Kind You are to us, Merciful God! How Good, and how Gracious, to the fallen sinners who Inhabit Your Earth! You have Granted to us a man after Your Own Heart to Lead us, and our Desire is to Serve him, with Prayers, with Supplications, and with the Moral Support of our Christian Love. He has said that he Feels our Prayers, Loving God, so we Plead for Daily Grace to Fulfill this Work You have Appointed for us to Do, that You will Receive all the Glory and All the Praise for Its Completion. We Love You so, Dearest Father Jehovah, and Thank You from our hearts for not Suffering us to be Agonized under the ungodly reign of John F. Kerry! Thank You, Gracious and Merciful Master, for Sparing us that Horrible Nightmare that so easily could have Been!

Most Kind and Loving King, we Lift up our Military men and women to You now, Thanking You for Being their Defender and their Shield throughout the War on Terror, and we Plead that Your Fatherly Presence will Abide with them Strongly, and that Jesus Christ will be Foremost in their Thoughts and in their Hearts. We also Interceed for our Nation, O Lord-King, Begging for Your Sovereign Mercy to Go before us, for Your Grace to Fall Freely upon us, that we may come to our Senses and Repent of all our Ungodly Deeds. Help us, our God! Save us, as we Slide Further and Further toward the Abyss, toward Judgement for the Immorality, Perversion, and Infanticide we've Committed! Don't let us become Totally Godless, O King! Restrain the Democrat Party and the ACLU from their Errand from Hell, Cancelling their Atheistic Marching Orders satan has given them to do! Restore us to Complete Godliness, O Christ, for Your Own Glories' Sake, that we Might Give You all the Eternal Praise for it!

We Worship You, O Gracious Father, and Love to Sing of the Glory of Your Name! Bless Mightily all who come here to Pray, Sweet Lord, Infusing them with the Presence of Your Comforting Spirit of Grace. You are our God, O Loving Lord Jesus Christ, and we will Praise, Worship and Exalt Your Name Forever, amen.

"For thus the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, has said, In repentance and rest you shall be saved, In quietness and trust is your strength." Is. 30:15

Thank you Father for sending your Son, the Lord Jesus, to secure our eternal redemption.

Thank you Father, for watching over our nation. Let there be repentance among the people, and let many come to you. As Daniel confessed the sin of his people to You, we confess the sins of our nation to You...abortion, euthanasia, immorality, materialism, profanity, the promotion of "self" above all things....these and many more are our sins, yet we plead that there would be repentance from the heart of the people for these things.

Thank you for guarding and guiding our President. Please keep him and his family safe as they travel. Please foil any plot against his life or health. Confound the enemy, O Lord. Keep our President humble, and submitted to You.

Please be with our troops, particularly those in the military hospitals overseas, where there seems to be a problem with controlling various bacterial infections. Lord, give the doctor's the ability to treat these infections effectively.

We love You and praise You, King of Kings, in the precious Name of Jesus Christ, Amen
