The Lord is righteous in all His ways and loving toward all HE has made.
The LORD is near to all who call on Him, to all who call on Him in truth.
He fulfills the desires of those who fear Him; He hears their cry and saves them.
Dear Lord, we praise and thank You for a Godly President who seeks to honor You with his life and to serve You. We continue to ask for guidance for him, moment by moment, as he seeks to make decisions which honor Your word, and show Your love to others. We call upon You to protect him as he travels and grant rest and blessing both to him and to Laura this weekend. We thank You for their faithful service to You and ask that they might both seek Your Kingdom first, and that Your abundant blessing might be showered upon them both as they serve You.
We pray, dear Lord, for our troops who are in harms way, both in Iraq and Afghanistan, and especially pray for the three who have been kidnapped that You would shield them from harm and make Your presence known to them. Lord, we thank You for all those who are willing to give up their own freedom and security to serve this nation and protect its people. We ask that You would blanket each one of them with Your protection and that You would help each one of them to know that You love them, and that they are loved by most of the American people who look at them with gratitude and respect. We pray, dear Lord, for those who have been wounded in battle, that they might be healed, and for the families and loved ones of those who have fallen, that they might be comforted.
Finally, dear Father, we pray for this nation, and ask that You would forgive us for our many sins against You. We pray that the dark blot of abortion might one day be ended, and we thank You for President Bushs strong stance in protecting the lives of the unborn, and ask that You might raise up a leader who will carry on with his desire to return America to a place that honors the sanctity of life. We pray for each representative, asking that You might grant wisdom in dealing with difficult decisions. We pray that they might stand strong for the sovereignty of this nation, and for honoring the laws on which it is founded, and on Your laws. We thank You for each person who gathers here to pray, and ask that everything said and done here would be to Your honor and glory. In the strong and loving Name of Jesus, who is the Christ we pray, Amen!
God bless you all. It has been a privilege to post this thread.
Thank you for your friendship and support.
This is a prayer thread.
This is a prayer thread on a forum that used to have rules to distinguish it from DU.
This is exactly why I can no longer post here.
Respect, dignity, honor are all gone. Prayer for the President is mocked.
Free Republic is now indistinguishable from moveon.org or DU.

I couldn’t agree more!
I haven’t posted here before, but I want you to know that I do pray for President Bush privately, as well as when prayers are offered for him in the Orthodox liturgy every Sunday. In many ways I am thankful for him and in some ways I am disappointed. But I will continue to pray for him that he might have guidance and strength to do the hardest job in the world in these tumultuous times.
And this thread is proof.
Please send me an e-mail about your husband, OK? I will be praying for you and your precious family!
And we WILL stay in touch!!
Thank you, Southside. God bless you!
Amen
God bless President Bush our strong leader in this time of war.
Amen
God bless you, my dear. I do know what you mean. I will miss you. Please keep in touch. {{{{{HUGS}}}}
At my home I have a picture of President Bush under the picture of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Prayers, too, for the new Sarkozy government of France to set that lost country back on the proper course again, and added prayers to convince the President and sane members of Congress to put the kibosh on the shamnesty deal that threatens to obliterate law and order as well as national security. Amen.
Stay on FR OWF, we need you here. At the end of the day our side who supports the President and the Republican Party will win the day.
