One Defend Roseburg supporter offered this prayer today before today’s protest:
We come to You today to first give You glory and honor and praise for we know there is none like You, You are the only one true and living God like You as You have told us in Your Word. Thank You Father for being real and giving us hope.
Today we lift up the community of Roseburg Oregon and ask for a hedge of protection there. As You know Lord, president Obama is going to visit Roseburg and many are upset over it.
I believe in my heart that You Lord have handed America over to a corrupt leader because of our rebellion against You. I Understand that Father but ask that You would have mercy on America and have mercy and grace on Roseburg today.
Allow this protest to go forward with peace, success, brotherhood and love. May the message be loud and clear to our government that we still love God and love America the constitutional republic.
I pray that in spite of the media’s ability to skew the truth about this event that You Lord would open the door of truth to be made known across America that would show our nation we need to stand for our constitution and stand for our Creator and Savior who gives us life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Lord I know that freedom and liberty first came from you and America will once again be a nation that You oh Father in Heaven will bless once again. We give you this day and pray for Your will in Roseburg today.
In Jesus name I pray.
Amen.
Nice prayer. Although it seems that they already have let obama put his shadow over the tragic event of last week. No mention of the victims or their families. Although there will be time enough for that during the numerous upcoming funerals and memorials for all those people.
One of the things about school shootings that saddens me so much is that, whether young or old, these people are shot down just as they are embarking on something new - doing something that will better their lives and society. All of their hopes and dreams shattered.
