2 Sam.23: “Now these are the last words of David: David son of Jesse says, and the man who was raised on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet psalmist of Israel, says, The Spirit of the Lord spoke in and by me, and His word was upon my tongue. The God of Israel spoke, the Rock of Israel said to me, When one rules over men righteously, ruling in the fear of God, He dawns on them like the morning light when the sun rises on a cloudless morning, when the tender grass springs out of the earth through clear shining after rain. Truly does not my house stand so with God? For He has made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things, and sure. For will He not cause to prosper all my help and my desire?”
Father, we read this passage in 2 Samuel and inwardly sigh disappointment. Your will is for Governments to run decently and in order. We see confusion and every evil thing in our Government right now. BUT GOD, we rebuke fear and proclaim with the psalmist, “I will have confidence in and put my trust and reliance in You.” Knowing Your will is order, we ask that Your will be done in the Government of our UNITED States of America. Make it orderly. Three little words impossible in our thinking but possible with You.
May Your person be placed as Speaker of the House and unite the Republican congressmen behind the way You direct him or her. A house divided cannot stand.
We pray that You would surround President Trump with people of wisdom and understanding. Especially, Sir, they must be people who have Your heart. As they rein him in around Your righteous ways, we believe he will respond to Truth.
Thank You for answering our prayers in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Lord, we pray that those in government would turn to You, would repent, and would seek Your will.
We pray that we would be governed by God-fearing people.
We pray that the darkness will go away.
Oh Lord we look to you for help, wisdom and protection. For our government has gone its own way and we have put too much faith in those who are not godly. Jesus we pray that we could continue to honor you and speak up at appropriate times. In Jesus Name Amen.

Troparion
Of old, the river Jordan / turned back before Elisha’s mantle at Elijah’s ascension. / The waters were parted in two / and the waterway became a dry path. / This is truly a symbol of baptism / by which we pass through this mortal life. / Christ has appeared in the Jordan to sanctify the waters!
Kontakion
O Christ, in Thy compassion and infinite mercy, / Thou art coming as a man to be baptized in the Jordan, / in order to take away the many transgressions of us all, / clothing me in the garment of ancient glory / of which I was cruelly stripped bare.
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 !
Amen to your Beautiful, Power-Filled Prayer, Dear Servant of our King.
Praying with you in Heartfelt Agreement.
