Join with fellow FREEPERS to pray for AMERICA: For those in Authority in Government, Family, Military, Business, Healthcare, Education, Churches, and the Media.
Do good, O Lord, to those who are good, and to those who are upright in their hearts! But those who turn aside to their crooked ways the Lord will lead away with evildoers! Peace be upon Israel!
Father, We thank You for the protection You afford us. Keep us always aware of Your abiding and protecting presence.
We ask that you would continue to protect us and Israel from the attacks of the enemy. Give us wisdom in how to best fight the spiritual battle we are in for the hearts, minds, and souls of people.
Give us many opportunities to share the good news about You this Christmas and to glorify You through it.
In Jesus Name.
Amen.
Amen !!! <><
Psalm 57
To the leader: Do Not Destroy. Of David. A Miktam, when he fled from Saul, in the cave.
1 Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me,
for in you my soul takes refuge;
in the shadow of your wings I will take refuge,
until the destroying storms pass by.
2 I cry to God Most High,
to God who fulfils his purpose for me.
3 He will send from heaven and save me,
he will put to shame those who trample on me.
Selah
God will send forth his steadfast love and his faithfulness.
4 I lie down among lions
that greedily devour* human prey;
their teeth are spears and arrows,
their tongues sharp swords.
5 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens.
Let your glory be over all the earth.
6 They set a net for my steps;
my soul was bowed down.
They dug a pit in my path,
but they have fallen into it themselves.
Selah
7 My heart is steadfast, O God,
my heart is steadfast.
I will sing and make melody.
8 Awake, my soul!
Awake, O harp and lyre!
I will awake the dawn.
9 I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the peoples;
I will sing praises to you among the nations.
10 For your steadfast love is as high as the heavens;
your faithfulness extends to the clouds.
11 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens.
Let your glory be over all the earth.
Amen
Amen
Amen, metmom

Prayer to Pray for My Enemies
Loving Lord, I so desire to follow Your command to love my enemies, to pray for those that persecute me, to do good to those that hate me, to bless those that curse me and to pray for those who mistreat me, and I ask that in Your strength and grace I would learn to live my life according to Your will.
I understand that the real enemy that I face is not the flesh and blood of men and women that I so often come up against in life, but the battle I face is against a spiritual enemy and forces of evil that are in the heavenly realms – and that Satan and his evil forces are my true antagonists, who encompasses me about on every side and seek to shipwreck my faith.
Thank You for the spiritual armor that is mine in Christ and I praise You that in Him I have all that I need to stand fast in the evil day, knowing that the weapons of our warfare are not that that are used by the world, but are divinely powerful spiritual weapons, which are designed to destroy the fortresses of evil and to demolish of strongholds of Satan.
Father, I pray that You would rescue those that are under the dominion of Satan and bring them out from the satanic, kingdom of darkness into the glorious kingdom of Your dear Son. I ask that You make known to them the wonderful riches that are in Christ. I pray that each one may come to saving faith in Christ Jesus, so that they may be at peace with God and have the peace of Christ reigning in their hearts.
Give me wisdom and discernment to know when to act, what to say, how to pray and when to remain silent. May all I do be according to Your will, and I ask that in all things Your Holy Spirit would lead and guide, in Jesus’ name I pray,
Amen

Adding my prayers. God bless.
AMEN.
We need to remember that people are just tools Satan uses and it SHOULD give us compassion for them. I honestly find that difficult when they are obviously clearly advocating form him and proud of it.
Amen!

both great and small. In the Name of Jesus. AMEN!
