With tears, I say, “amen”.
Trying times try our faith. We are always in a position of needing God’s grace to survive. He is faithful and we praise Him for all the blessings of the last eight years and the many ways He will show Himself strong on our behalf in the future.
We will continue praying and fighting until we are removed from this earthly warfare.
See you ladies in the fray on the other prayer threads. God bless your diligence, love and obedience.
Amen.
Thanks to each of you for your Faithfuless in Prayer. God Bless you all.
AMEN!
My sincerest prayers for George W. Bush and his family.
Thank you for your heartfelt prayers for our beloved president, his family, and our country, and for all the FR prayer warriors. It has been a long road. The road ahead is even longer, and it is a road we do not know. In Christ, we have that peace that passes all understanding. May that comfort us through whatever trials and tribulations come upon us. It was safe and comforting knowing we had a brother in Christ at the helm. It is hard to let that go. I pray mercy for our nation and pray that the Bush family is left alone to enjoy their private life. I pray that the slings and arrows that were aimed and thrown at this decent man daily will fall to the dust. I pray the Lord’s hand of protection remain over President Bush until he goes Home to the Father. With a lump in my throat, I say Amen.
Godspeed, Mr. President.
Psalm 37 (New International Version)
Psalm 37
Of David.
1 [a] Do not fret because of evil men
or be envious of those who do wrong;
2 for like the grass they will soon wither,
like green plants they will soon die away.
3 Trust in the LORD and do good;
dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
4 Delight yourself in the LORD
and he will give you the desires of your heart.
5 Commit your way to the LORD;
trust in him and he will do this:
6 He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn,
the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.
7 Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him;
do not fret when men succeed in their ways,
when they carry out their wicked schemes.
8 Refrain from anger and turn from wrath;
do not fret—it leads only to evil.
9 For evil men will be cut off,
but those who hope in the LORD will inherit the land.
10 A little while, and the wicked will be no more;
though you look for them, they will not be found.
11 But the meek will inherit the land
and enjoy great peace.
12 The wicked plot against the righteous
and gnash their teeth at them;
13 but the Lord laughs at the wicked,
for he knows their day is coming.
14 The wicked draw the sword
and bend the bow
to bring down the poor and needy,
to slay those whose ways are upright.
15 But their swords will pierce their own hearts,
and their bows will be broken.
16 Better the little that the righteous have
than the wealth of many wicked;
17 for the power of the wicked will be broken,
but the LORD upholds the righteous.
18 The days of the blameless are known to the LORD,
and their inheritance will endure forever.
19 In times of disaster they will not wither;
in days of famine they will enjoy plenty.
20 But the wicked will perish:
The LORD's enemies will be like the beauty of the fields,
they will vanish—vanish like smoke.
21 The wicked borrow and do not repay,
but the righteous give generously;
22 those the LORD blesses will inherit the land,
but those he curses will be cut off.
23 If the LORD delights in a man's way,
he makes his steps firm;
24 though he stumble, he will not fall,
for the LORD upholds him with his hand.
25 I was young and now I am old,
yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken
or their children begging bread.
26 They are always generous and lend freely;
their children will be blessed.
27 Turn from evil and do good;
then you will dwell in the land forever.
28 For the LORD loves the just
and will not forsake his faithful ones.
They will be protected forever,
but the offspring of the wicked will be cut off;
29 the righteous will inherit the land
and dwell in it forever.
30 The mouth of the righteous man utters wisdom,
and his tongue speaks what is just.
31 The law of his God is in his heart;
his feet do not slip.
32 The wicked lie in wait for the righteous,
seeking their very lives;
33 but the LORD will not leave them in their power
or let them be condemned when brought to trial.
34 Wait for the LORD
and keep his way.
He will exalt you to inherit the land;
when the wicked are cut off, you will see it.
35 I have seen a wicked and ruthless man
flourishing like a green tree in its native soil,
36 but he soon passed away and was no more;
though I looked for him, he could not be found.
37 Consider the blameless, observe the upright;
there is a future [b] for the man of peace.
38 But all sinners will be destroyed;
the future [c] of the wicked will be cut off.
39 The salvation of the righteous comes from the LORD;
he is their stronghold in time of trouble.
40 The LORD helps them and delivers them;
he delivers them from the wicked and saves them,
because they take refuge in him.
Joining in prayer for President Bush and his family.
Thank you for allowing me to be a part of this wonderful prayer site.
You all have held up our President faithfully for many years, as well as honoring and supporting our warriors.
I will miss you all. May God be with you in all you endeavor.
May He keep this “one nation under God” under His care as we enter what may be a difficult trail period. As Daniel knew, God will be there with us, whatever happens.
Amen. Mike
I ask in Jesus Precious Name, that our President will
now have the time to study the Word of God and to sit
