FATHER GOD:

Praise the LORD!
Praise GOD in His sanctuary;
Praise Him in His mighty expanse.
Praise Him for His mighty deeds;
Praise Him according to His excellent greatness.
Praise Him with trumpet sound;
Praise Him with harp and lyre. (Psalm 150:1-6)

We give You praise, FATHER GOD, because of Your great love for us. You knew we could not face the fiery darts of the enemy alone, so You sent HOLY SPIRIT to live inside us to be our Counselor, Friend, Comforter, Who know our every thought and deed. Now more than ever we need His utterings and groanings to the LORD, because the world has gotten so evil, we do not know how to pray.

HOLY SPIRIT helps us in our weakness. For example, we don’t know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words. (Romans 8:26).

LORD, tomorrow is the National Day of Prayer, a day set aside by Congress to pray for our leaders and nation. Stir the hearts of Your people as they gather in one accord to truly repent – first, for themselves, then for the sins of America. May believers heed Your Command.

At times I might shut up the heavens so that no rain falls, or command grasshoppers to devour your crops, or send plagues among you. Then if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land. (2 Chronicles 7:13-14)

LORD, if America fails it will be because of believers. Help us turn from our wicked ways and publicly stand for liberty, truth, and righteousness. May we be the kind of people You want us to be:

You are a chosen people. You are royal priests, a holy nation, God’s very own possession. As a result, you can show others the goodness of GOD, for he called you out of the darkness into His wonderful light. (1 Peter 2:9)

Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD. (Psalm 33:12)

In JESUS’ name we pray. AMEN.

Psalm 138

Of David.

1 I give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart;
before the gods I sing your praise;
2 I bow down towards your holy temple
and give thanks to your name for your steadfast love and your faithfulness;
for you have exalted your name and your word
above everything.*
3 On the day I called, you answered me,
you increased my strength of soul.*

4 All the kings of the earth shall praise you, O Lord,
for they have heard the words of your mouth.
5 They shall sing of the ways of the Lord,
for great is the glory of the Lord.
6 For though the Lord is high, he regards the lowly;
but the haughty he perceives from far away.

7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble,
you preserve me against the wrath of my enemies;
you stretch out your hand,
and your right hand delivers me.
8 The Lord will fulfil his purpose for me;
your steadfast love, O Lord, endures for ever.
Do not forsake the work of your hands.

“Oh! I didn’t realize the National Day of Prayer is tomorrow. We need it!!”

Yes we do! One of the things that gives me hope for our country is that the Pilgrims dedicated the New World to Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I’m convinced that He will always honor that decision.

[ViLaLuz]

Yes! Forgive us Lord for straying so far away from you in America.

Prayer Of Thanks For Christ’s Word Of Forgiveness

Heavenly Father, we stand in awe and wonderment as we look back and reflect on the whole course of that crucifixion day of the Lord Jesus Christ, and all that it means to us personally, as well the incredible impact that it must have had on those that were there at the time, when the cruel nails were driven into His hands and feet and He was heard to pray, “Father forgive them for they know not what they do.”

Father, although I can easily look back with an eye of criticism on all who were instrumental in His death, and utter a word of condemnation on those who scorned and despised Him, yet as I reflect on the shocking treatment of our Lord, I realise that it was my sins that also nailed Him to the tree and I am equally as guilty of the death of Your only beloved Son, as Pontous Pilate, the Roman guards, the religious leaders of the Jews and the mocking crowd, for it was the weight of my sins that He carried to the cross and it was for me personally, that He died.

Thank You, Father, that my sins were forgiven at the cross and instead of Your wrath being poured out on me, Jesus took the full force of Your righteous anger as Your judgement on sin fell on Him.

Thank You, Lord, that instead of giving up on humanity when they killed Your beloved Son, that You chose to pour out 2000 years of grace upon grace, so that whosever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. May I never forget, ignore or trivialise the horror of sin and the tremendous price that Christ paid so that my sin could be forgiven, and thank You for Your great love for me. In Jesus’ name I pray,

Amen.

Amen!
Oh Lord, lead us to repent as a nation.
Everything that has gone wrong is because we turned our backs on You.

[fieldmarshaldj]

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 !
