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

Holy Lord,
Surely You are good unto them that wait for You, to the souls that seek You. Your mercies are not consumed, because Your compassions fail not. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.
Father, during this final day before the celebration of Your Son’s birth, we ask You to help us take time to be still with You and listen to Your voice. For busyness is the enemy of intimacy with You. Help us Lord, to seek the needed things----the necessary time that will keep our hearts in harmony with Yours. Help us to be grateful and mindful of the precious gift of Jesus---the Perfect Lamb of God, sent to take away the sins of the world. We bless You for so great a Love as this.
Gracious Lord, thank You for Your protection of our families in these days of darkness and much evil. We pray that You hide them in the shadow of Your wings. May no evil befall them nor any plague come near them.
Lord, we pray for former President Trump---that he would triumph over every adversity, even in the midst of tremendous opposition. Make him an overcomer, Lord, and may he seek Your wisdom and truth in every situation. We ask You also to help our military men and women to hope in You. We know that in You they can find rest and peace when their hearts are yielded to You. Grant them special meaning to their Christmas whether they are celebrating at home or away. We pray for all the families of our heroes who will not be able to be with their loved ones serving our nation. Father, may Your blessings be shared with them in many different ways and through many different servants.
Comfort Your people Israel, Lord God, in the midst of the continued unrest and unresolved fighting. Thank You for defending her. May every hostage be safely returned to the families awaiting them. Lord, the times in which we live cause us great concern. We are seeing more and more that evil is called good and good, evil. We are realizing that placing our hope in man or in government is fruitless. Help us to hope in You alone, for only You can be called truly faithful. Thank You, Lord, that during this time when our institutions are under assault and our nation is unstable, You, Lord, are the same---yesterday, today, and forever. Yes, Lord, great is Your faithfulness. We thank You, Father, in the Name of Jesus Christ. Oh Come, Oh Come, Emmanuel. Blessed be the Name of the Lord. Amen.

Prayer Over The Christmas Period
Loving Lord and Heavenly Father, how we rejoice as we remember the wonder and joy of the birth of Christ into our fallen world on that first Christmas night, when the Prince of Peace Himself came to tabernacle among men, as was promised to our forefathers so many years before.
Thank You for the gift of Your Son. Thank You for the glorious gospel of peace that is shed abroad in our hearts when we trust in His name. Thank You for the Person of Jesus Christ, Who laid aside His heavenly glory and was born to die so that we might be born-again and live.
Father, the glorious truth of the gospel of Christ is life and light to the children of men. It is peace and hope, it is love and joy, it is forgiveness and salvation, but too often the Christmas story has lost its impact on a world that has rejected Your truth and adopted the trappings of a world system, that is doomed to fail.
Forgive us Lord. Forgive us for the rebellious nature that is so often displayed at this time of the year and look down with compassion and mercy on us all this Christmas time.
Rekindle the light of truth in the hearts of men and women throughout the world, as we once again focus our hearts on Your humble birth and the redemption it provides for all who will trust in You, by grace through faith. Give all who have been saved by Your precious blood an abiding peace as we celebrate the beautiful truth of the glorious gospel of grace. In Jesus name,
Amen.

Psalm 9
To the leader: according to Muth-labben. A Psalm of David.
1 I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart;
I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.
2 I will be glad and exult in you;
I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.
3 When my enemies turned back,
they stumbled and perished before you.
4 For you have maintained my just cause;
you have sat on the throne giving righteous judgement.
5 You have rebuked the nations, you have destroyed the wicked;
you have blotted out their name for ever and ever.
6 The enemies have vanished in everlasting ruins;
their cities you have rooted out;
the very memory of them has perished.
7 But the Lord sits enthroned for ever,
he has established his throne for judgement.
8 He judges the world with righteousness;
he judges the peoples with equity.
9 The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed,
a stronghold in times of trouble.
10 And those who know your name put their trust in you,
for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you.
11 Sing praises to the Lord, who dwells in Zion.
Declare his deeds among the peoples.
12 For he who avenges blood is mindful of them;
he does not forget the cry of the afflicted.
13 Be gracious to me, O Lord.
See what I suffer from those who hate me;
you are the one who lifts me up from the gates of death,
14 so that I may recount all your praises,
and, in the gates of daughter Zion,
rejoice in your deliverance.
15 The nations have sunk in the pit that they made;
in the net that they hid has their own foot been caught.
16 The Lord has made himself known, he has executed judgement;
the wicked are snared in the work of their own hands.
Higgaion. Selah
17 The wicked shall depart to Sheol,
all the nations that forget God.
18 For the needy shall not always be forgotten,
nor the hope of the poor perish for ever.
19 Rise up, O Lord! Do not let mortals prevail;
let the nations be judged before you.
20 Put them in fear, O Lord;
let the nations know that they are only human.
Selah
