Since no one has bothered to start a thread specifically to pray for the President's safety during his trip to Europe - here goes!
My favorite scriptures which I use over the President and his family are: Isaiah 54:14 & 54:17 - they are as follows:
14. In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.
17. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.
To make a reality of these scriptures - you can confess them, in faith, as follows:
14 - We thank you Father GOD that you have established our President (and his family, admin, etc.) in righteousness: our President is far from oppression; and he does not partake of fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near him.
17 - We thank you Father GOD that no weapon formed against our President shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise up against him - he will condemn (the Amplified version says - they are condemned already); we are grateful Father GOD that our President's righteousness is of You.
15. Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake.
I believe GOD is saying that even though Europe appears to be gathering against the President - that gathering is not of GOD: [and] whosoever shall gather together against the President [they] shall fall for the President's sake.
Amen,......Infinite Grace and Mercy,........In Jesus' Precious Name, Amen!!!
(Romans 10:17)
I can support that.
You can also join us on the regular Pray for President Bush thread, to pray for their safety on this trip.
Dear Lord, we pray for the safety and security of our beloved President and Lady Laura during this important trip abroad. We pray also that you keep their entire entourage safe and secure, and that they find no obstacles in their mission to support and protect our President.
May the President and all those involved find fertile soil in hearts and minds that are receptive to the message of freedom, faith and human dignity that he so firmly delivers.
I'm on it CyberAnt. Started praying specifically for this trip since I heard about it. Is. 54:17 has been my favorite for many years.
Lord, surround our President with the hedge of Job. Amen
Thank you CyberAnt---I am not as good as most of ya'll with the Bible verses---I love to read them and savor them, but I read the Bible, didn't really study it---so thank you very much for this---
I am pretty good at praying though, so I will add an extra for Bush for this trip---I also cringe everytime he gets off of the plane on foreign soil, even California. hahaha
...."we have overcome the enemy by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony.."
..."the word of God shall not come void...."
...heaven and earth shall past away but HIS words shall never past away..."
Thank you Father for protecting our President, his wife Laura and every one traveling with them. Making our beloved President shiny in that dark part of the world.
In Jesus name, amen
Praying in agreement with you. Thank you for posting this thread.
Praying with you for the president.
Amen, our Blessed Master, may it be so, for the Glory of our Christ.
prayer bump
I Peter 4:10-11
10. As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
11. If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
"In Jesus Precious Name"
Thanks for adding that!
Glad to have you join with me in prayer!!
My pleasure. It's an important trip for the nation. I wish the President well in his efforts. I also believe it is good that we ask for guidance, so that our leaders do the right things when opportunities present.
Thank you for the response.
I was going to just join that thread, but a lot of people never go there .. so I was hoping to find a lot of new people to join in protecting our President with prayer.
And .. I wanted to highlight this trip as needing extra prayer since our President will not be in familiar surroundings.
Thanks for posting the link to the other thread - maybe some will find their way their too!
Loved the last paragraph - "fertile soil in hearts and minds that are receptive to ... freedom" - excellant addition to the prayer - thanks!
Please post your thoughts everyday. Sometimes God will have people pray specific things on specific days. If you feel led to do that - please let us know so we can join in agreement with your prayer. Thanks.
