Psalm 73:1-29
Truly God is good to Israel, to those who are pure in heart.

But as for me, my feet had almost stumbled, my steps had nearly slipped. For I was envious of the arrogant when I saw the prosperity of the wicked. For they have no pangs until death; their bodies are fat and sleek. They are not in trouble as others are; they are not stricken like the rest of mankind. Therefore pride is their necklace; violence covers them as a garment. Their eyes swell out through fatness; their hearts overflow with follies. They scoff and speak with malice; loftily they threaten oppression. They set their mouths against the heavens, and their tongue struts through the earth. Therefore his people turn back to them, and find no fault in them. And they say, “How can God know? Is there knowledge in the Most High?”

Behold, these are the wicked; always at ease, they increase in riches.

All in vain have I kept my heart clean and washed my hands in innocence. For all the day long I have been stricken and rebuked every morning. If I had said, “I will speak thus," I would have betrayed the generation of your children. But when I thought how to understand this, it seemed to me a wearisome task, until I went into the sanctuary of God; then I discerned their end.

Truly you set them in slippery places; you make them fall to ruin. How they are destroyed in a moment, swept away utterly by terrors! Like a dream when one awakes, O Lord, when you rouse yourself, you despise them as phantoms. When my soul was embittered, when I was pricked in heart, I was brutish and ignorant; I was like a beast toward you.

Nevertheless, I am continually with you; you hold my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will receive me to glory. Whom have I in heaven but you? And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides you. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. For behold, those who are far from you shall perish; you put an end to everyone who is unfaithful to you. But for me it is good to be near God; I have made the Lord God my refuge, that I may tell of all your works.

Father, it is with heavy hearts we look at the situation in our country and again, ask You to intervene. Lawlessness and injustice abound, wickedness and evil are rampant with it seems nothing to keep it in check.

We know that ultimately, You win and will restore all things, but in the meantime, we ask You to also work here and now. We would love to see Your mighty hand move in ways that people cannot deny and would give us some encouragement.

We again ask for justice to prevail and evil leaders to be cast down and righteous ones to take their place.

We think of all Your people who are suffering in many ways and pray that You would move in a miraculous way for deliverance that would be a testimony to Your watch care of Your children in this world.

Thank you for the answers that You are already sending and give us eyes to see, ears to hear, and hearts to recognize Your sovereign hand in the midst of all this chaos.

In Jesus' name. 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 !

Thank you for your prayer, Metmom.

FATHER, we pray Your Will be done; ask for healing of
our nation and suffering family members.
Dear FATHER. we mourn the loss of the countless heroes lost
those years ago. These brave souls, men, women, dogs, etc.
Special prayers You show justice for Veteran Daniel Penny,
Veteran H Floyd (34 yo black man held in jail in Atlanta as an indicted defendant and unable to make bail/hire an attorney),
George Allan Kelly and those unfairly imprisoned abroad
and in D.C. Please show them Your Mercy. FATHER, the list
of those unfairly imprisoned grows longer each day. We pray our enemies cease this unfair act soon.

As always, we pray for the brave men and women who
sacrifice greatly to keep our borders safe and
the patriots who attempt
to save our country. We ask You Open Your Arms,
enfolding into the Kingdom of Heaven the many Maui
victims, you comfort their grieving loved ones.

I thank You for this circle of faithful, ask you fill all
with the spirit of kindness which they might show to all,
even those who hold so much animosity. Kindness equals
kindness. Please endow us all to exemplify the kindness and
enduring love You show us each day.
We value Your Wisdom in the presence of Donald Trump,
sent to save this nation founded in Your Name. Sensing
he
was Created By You, for this time, we’ve
faith You have Touched him with Your Protection.

We wish to acknowledge the Miracle we have witnessed in Your
Works to set Veteran Floyd free. Kind souls donating money to set bond in bailing him out of prison. We pray Veteran Floyd will be able to hire his own defense council, and find a roof over his head soon. We’ve Faith You will see him thru to the better times, which he so desperately needs.

In addition, Father a Thank You for the Patriot Medical Profession Members. After having first hand dealings with these men and women over the years find that many, if not most are still of and with WTP rather than the elites who wish to run and ruin our lives. These individuals must walk a tightrope in truly being a doctor and treating patients or looking to lose their license to practice if they do not toe the line in obeying the rules and regulations of our current Marxist government and corrupt hotheads of the leaders in their profession in charge of licenses. We should walk in their shoes, an attempt to make the decision if we were them. Granted, there are a few bad apples to be
found; A Dr. Fauci type. However, we also find a good many, if not more of the dedicated, hard working such as Dr.McCulloh type. We pray you give them the strength to make the right decisions/choices. Our prayers go up for these torn men and women.

Father, the words typed may be incoherent to some, but in Your Wisdom You Know why my attempt to put into words our gratude and Thanksgiving is so overwhelimg. You might say, Words fail me. Thank You for all things, both great and small.
In the
Name of Jesus. Amen!

Our Father, Omnipotent, Holy and Gracious beyond anything ever seen — I ask You, by whatever means, to cause and enable tens of millions of Americans to begin to see You for who You really are. For I know that if they finally see You, they will be impressed and desperate to have You in their lives, and be saved. That kind of awakening can only help our country.

Please, Lord. And please bring Your Church in America into alignment with Your thoughts and ways to thus be able to help in such an awakening. Thank You, Lord.
