Free Republic ^ | 02 December 2022 | NEWwoman

[NEWwoman]

Join with fellow FREEPERS to pray for AMERICA:
For those in Authority in Government, Family, Military, Business, Healthcare, Education, Churches, and the Media.

I urge, then, first of all,
that requests, prayers, intercession,
and thanksgiving be made
for everyone:
for kings and all those in authority
that we may live peaceful and quiet lives
in all godliness and holiness.
~ 1 Timothy 2:1-2

The Solomon’s Prayer

So that all the peoples of the earth
may know that the LORD is God
and that there is no other.

History of the Holidays: Hanukkah

Then came the Festival of Dedication at Jerusalem.

It was winter,

and Jesus was in the temple courts
walking in Solomon’s Colonnade.

John 10:22-23 (NIV)

----

Heavenly Father –

Winter is coming. The nights grow ever longer. The days ever shorter.

It seems so symbolic of our dark days. Evil abounds and has taken over our sacred institutions, which should shed the light of truth and justice.

Yet, during this darkest season of the year, Hanukkah is celebrated, the victory of light—physical and spiritual—over darkness—physical and spiritual.

Reference: What Is Hanukkah? – A Season of Miracles and Light

And it was not an accident that Jesus celebrated this winter holiday in the Gospel of John—the only mention of Hanukkah in the Scriptures.

As He is the Light in a very dark season and our only hope of salvation.

We confess we have not lived up to the Light given us, Lord, in the Word.

Grant us a heart of repentance. Open us to Your Word and learn Your ways and walk in them through the power of the Spirit.

And during these dark days of evil and apostacy….

Meanwhile, as the times grow spiritually darker, we wait for the Second Coming of our Lord and Savior like we celebrate His First Coming in Christmas.

And as the wise men followed His Star, we look through the darkness for the promise of the Morning Star:

May we never give up and keep the faith….

In Jesus Name,
Amen

Give thanks to the LORD,
for He is good;
His love endures forever.

Psalm 118:1 (NIV)

Keep praying for America

“AMERICA PRAYER VIGIL ping!”
To be added or dropped from this ping list, post or freepmail to stars & stripes forever.
This is the confidence we have in approaching God:
that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.
1 JOHN 5:14

For Behold, Darkness Shall Cover the Earth

When Jesus spoke again
to the people,
He said,

“I am the light of the world.

Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness,
but will have the light of life.”

John 8:12 (NIV)

Keep praying for America

O Lord, You know the needs and desires of our hearts. Look on our supplications with mercy. Let every American heart awaken with the fire of love for You and zeal for Your Church. Open all eyes to the reality around them. Let every one see the evil engulfing us and understand that we are in a war between good and evil. Enflame the hearts of the lukewarm and send the gift of faith to unbelievers. Send Your angels to fight with us to rebuild this nation. Smite all those who do evil, especially to children. Protect our stalwart military and all patriots, especially President Trump and his family.

Restore each member of my family to physical, emotional, and spiritual health. Forgive us and save us, Lord!
I ask all this in the name of Jesus.
Amen

Dear Lord, we beseech Thee to purge the monstrous Satanic evil that has seized control of our institutions and government ! Bring these evil individuals to justice ! Strike down these wicked individuals and institutions that blatantly and audaciously lie to the public about their true (evil) intentions while painting good people as the real enemy !

Do not let these servants of darkness prevail over Your children ! Send forth Your angels to liberate us, oh, Lord ! Hear our cries and help us, please, dear Lord !

AMEN !

[Jeanbl]

AMEN, thank you. Joining in prayer.

[SisterK]

Thank you for leading in this most excellent prayer
Amen and Amen!

Lord, help us to extend Your light.
Let us have no part of the darkness.

Let the glory and the joy of the Lord burn brightly in our hearts and our eyes.

May there be no confusion as to whether we are His people.

Let them see that our Kingdom is not of this earth.

Thank You Jesus!

[SisterK]

Amen

Lord, let us not be found to be the lukewarm church, but let our love and desire for You be bright shining as the sun.
We pray for those who do not know You. Soften their hearts and draw them closer to You.
Lord, we especially pray for those who are caught in the crosshairs of this spiritual war: the persecuted and the children. We pray for mercy. Amen

[Kalam]

Amen.

Psalm 72

Of Solomon.

1 Give the king your justice, O God,
and your righteousness to a king’s son.
2 May he judge your people with righteousness,
and your poor with justice.
3 May the mountains yield prosperity for the people,
and the hills, in righteousness.
4 May he defend the cause of the poor of the people,
give deliverance to the needy,
and crush the oppressor.

5 May he live* while the sun endures,
and as long as the moon, throughout all generations.
6 May he be like rain that falls on the mown grass,
like showers that water the earth.
7 In his days may righteousness flourish
and peace abound, until the moon is no more.

8 May he have dominion from sea to sea,
and from the River to the ends of the earth.
9 May his foes* bow down before him,
and his enemies lick the dust.
10 May the kings of Tarshish and of the isles
render him tribute,
may the kings of Sheba and Seba
bring gifts.
11 May all kings fall down before him,
all nations give him service.

12 For he delivers the needy when they call,
the poor and those who have no helper.
13 He has pity on the weak and the needy,
and saves the lives of the needy.
14 From oppression and violence he redeems their life;
and precious is their blood in his sight.

15 Long may he live!
May gold of Sheba be given to him.
May prayer be made for him continually,
and blessings invoked for him all day long.
16 May there be abundance of grain in the land;
may it wave on the tops of the mountains;
may its fruit be like Lebanon;
and may people blossom in the cities
like the grass of the field.
17 May his name endure for ever,
his fame continue as long as the sun.
May all nations be blessed in him;*
may they pronounce him happy.

18 Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel,
who alone does wondrous things.
19 Blessed be his glorious name for ever;
may his glory fill the whole earth.Amen and Amen.

20 The prayers of David son of Jesse are ended.
