Father, we pray for our president, George W. Bush. We pray most of all that he would be Your child, that he would walk with You and obey You. May his faith be strong, and may he be taught by You. Please give him wisdom and strength for his work.
We pray also for our troops, Lord. We pray for their comfort and their peace. Equip them with everything they need to fight a good fight. Protect them, we ask, against their enemies, and give them the victory. Your will, Father, is always done. We know that You are sovereign, and so we bring this request before You - please grant us victory in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Lord, we pray for the peace of America. Please turn our hearts to You again. We pray for the protection of Israel, and the strenghtening of our allies. For Your Church, Father, we ask Your favor. Strengthen us to follow and serve You well.
We praise You, Lord, for You are the God of heaven and earth. Your throne will last forever; You rule in righteousness and justice. For Your greatness - and still more for Your goodness - we reverence You. You are our Creator, Lord, and Savior. Thank You, Father, in Jesus' Name, Amen.
Come and pray.
AMEN SISTER AND GRACE TO ALL CHRISTIAN PATRIOTS!
“The Amen.”
- Revelation 3:14
The word AMEN solemnly confirms that which went before; and Jesus is the
great Confirmer; immutable, for ever is “the Amen” in all his promises.
Sinner, I would comfort thee with this reflection. Jesus Christ said,
“Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you
rest.” If you come to him, he will say “Amen” in your soul; his promise
shall be true to you. He said in the days of his flesh, “The bruised reed
I will not break.” O thou poor, broken, bruised heart, if thou comest to
him, he will say “Amen” to thee, and that shall be true in thy soul as in
hundreds of cases in bygone years. Christian, is not this very comforting
to thee also, that there is not a word which has gone out of the Saviour’s
lips which he has ever retracted? The words of Jesus shall stand when
heaven and earth shall pass away.
If thou gettest a hold of but half a promise, thou shalt find it true.
Beware of him who is called “Clip-promise,” who will destroy much of the
comfort of God’s word.
Jesus is Yea and Amen in all his offices. He was a Priest to pardon and
cleanse once, he is Amen as Priest still. He was a King to rule and reign
for his people, and to defend them with his mighty arm, he is an Amen
King, the same still. He was a Prophet of old, to foretell good things to
come, his lips are most sweet, and drop with honey still-he is an Amen
Prophet. He is Amen as to the merit of his blood; he is Amen as to his
righteousness.
That sacred robe shall remain most fair and glorious when nature shall
decay.
He is Amen in every single title which he bears; your Husband, never
seeking a divorce; your Friend, sticking closer than a brother; your
Shepherd, with you in death’s dark vale; your Help and your Deliverer;
your Castle and your High Tower; the Horn of your strength, your
confidence, your joy, your all in all, and your Yea and Amen in all.
C.H.SPURGEON
TO GOD ALONE THE GLORY!
Amen.
Amen to your beautiful prayer, Irish Rose.
We thank You for our beloved President, in whom we see a relationship with Christ. Guide him in the way he should go ... let not his enemies draw near, but set him above personal agendas that he might stay the course in his desire to please You and serve his countrymen. Raise up another to assume his office ... one who loves You and our beloved country, and one whose heart is entwined with Your beloved Israel.
Be pleased, O Lord, to grant success to our defenders of life and liberty. As they serve among the nations, may they bring the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, that untold numbers might come out of darkness, into the Light. Bring healing to the nations ... bring repentance and revival to our shores ... heal our land.
May it be thus, O Lord, may it be thus, in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ we pray, Amen ...
It is a joy to join with you in prayer for our President, our Beloved America and her brave Warriors.May God’s Grace be with our precious Land , her Leader and the brave people that have pledged to protect and serve America. For His Glory and in Jesus Name,
