“””Again, we believe that the Spirit of Truth will guide him and reveal lies and counsels of the enemy, even when it comes through a supposedly trusted source.”””

Yes!

And please hear, lead and guide us, O Lord. Amen.

Whether RC or another denomination, the following very powerful prayer delivered by John Paul II on Mar. 25, 1984 for deliverance from evil is a prayer for our own time:

Immaculate Heart! Help us to conquer the menace of evil, which so easily takes root in the hearts of the people of today, and whose immeasurable effects already weigh down upon our modern world and seem to block the paths towards the future!

From famine and war, deliver us.

From nuclear war, from incalculable self-destruction, from every kind of war, deliver us.

From sins against the life of man from its very beginning, deliver us.

From hatred and from the demeaning of the dignity of the children of God, deliver us.

From every kind of injustice in the life of society, both national and international, deliver us.

From readiness to trample on the commandments of God, deliver us.

From attempts to stifle in human hearts the very truth of God, deliver us.

From the loss of awareness of good and evil, deliver us.

From sins against the Holy Spirit, deliver us, deliver us.

Accept, O Mother of Christ, this cry laden with the sufferings of all individual human beings, laden with the sufferings of whole societies.

Help us with the power of the Holy Spirit to conquer all sin: individual sin and the "sin of the world", sin in all its manifestations.

Let there be revealed, once more, in the history of the world the infinite saving power of the Redemption: the power of merciful Love! May it put a stop to evil! May it transform consciences! May your Immaculate Heart reveal for all the light of Hope!

-Saint John Paul II, Consecration of all Individuals and Peoples of the World to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, 1984

Today is the ninth day of April. The Ninth Psalm seems good.

To the chief Musician upon Muthlabben, A Psalm of David.
1 I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.

2 I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High. 3 When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at thy presence.

4 For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; thou satest in the throne judging right.

5 Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked, thou hast put out their name for ever and ever. 6 O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end: and thou hast destroyed cities; their memorial is perished with them.

7 But the LORD shall endure for ever: he hath prepared his throne for judgment. 8 And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness.

9 The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble. 10 And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
- - - - - - - - - - -
11 Sing praises to the LORD, which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the people his doings. 12 When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them: he forgetteth not the cry of the humble.

13 Have mercy upon me, O LORD; consider my trouble which I suffer of them that hate me, thou that liftest me up from the gates of death: 14 That I may shew forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in thy salvation.

15 The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken. 16 The LORD is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.

17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.

18 For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall not perish for ever. 19 Arise, O LORD; let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged in thy sight. 20 Put them in fear, O LORD: that the nations may know themselves to be but men. Selah.

Also, today being the ninth of the month, and Lord God, I desired to post, as a mnemonic,

Matthew 9:38 (and 37)

“37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; 38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.”

Send laborers, O God. Send us. Send me. Send more.
That they may hear, and turn from wickedness to Your son, the Lord Jesus Christ, and be saved.

In Jesus’ Name, amen.

How very apt and exquisitely beautiful. He was unmatched in our lifetimes. RIP JPII, and amen to your timeless prayer. Thank you, spirited irish.

[Kitty Mittens]

There is no God like our God. We are in awe as we see the strength and wisdom You are giving President Trump and his staff. Again, we believe that the Spirit of Truth will guide him and reveal lies and counsels of the enemy, even when it comes through a supposedly trusted source.

Amen to Every Word of your Beautiful, Power-Filled Prayer, Dear Servant of Jesus Christ.
Joining you in Thanksgiving, Prayer, and Praise.

[Pajamajan]

Amen to everyone’s prayers and thank you.
