Luke 12:34

For where your treasure is,
there will your heart be also.



TOPICS: Culture/Society; Miscellaneous
KEYWORDS: pray; presidentbush; troops; victory
Holy Father,

The highest heavens belong to You, the Maker of heaven and earth. We are thankful that You remember us and bless us, for we extol You, Lord, both now and forevermore. We who fear You trust in You, for You are our help and shield. We give thanks to You, Lord, for You are good, You are awesome in power, and Your steadfast love endures forever.

Father, help us to never forsake our prayers for our President, for You use our petitions to perform mighty works in his life. You have chosen him for the purpose of leading a nation---indeed, the world; and You are using his example to witness to people across the globe. Father, we acknowledge our hurt and anger toward those who continuously denounce him, second-guess him, underestimate him, deride his faith, and lie about his intentions. O Lord, we know that the devil never seems to have to look very far for people who are willing to do his work. Hear our cries for our President, Lord, and defend Your servant, George W. Bush. Restore the support of the American people for his leadership. Please help him to continue to do what is right and just, for this is more acceptable to You than sacrifice. For Your Name’s sake, O Lord, preserve his life; in Your righteousness, bring him out of every trouble. In Your unfailing love, please silence the enemies of freedom and liberty.

Father, we know that You are a shield for all our military people and we pray that You would strengthen their resolve and grant them tremendous success. We ask You to open the doors of truth so that the Gospel may be preached to those who have never heard the beautiful message of Christ'slove. And we pray for every military man and woman to grow closer to You and to come home in victory at the appointed time.

Father, we sometimes become distracted by the rancor and vitriol of the political climate in this nation. We see our beloved country being turned into an unrecognizable confluence of competing priorities and agendas. We ask You, our Master, to restore that which has been eroded: our love for You, our obedience to You, and our desire to make You Lord of this nation. Heal us, Father. Raise up for us prayer warriors who will stand in the gap for our beloved America. Help us to make You our treasure, that our hearts may be filled with the desire to honor Jesus. You are the hope of our nation; You are the hope of the world. We are confident that You are able to answer these prayers in mighty and awesome ways. In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Heavenly Father,

I thank You for giving us President Bush; a man who stands up for what is right, even when what is right is not popular. Lord, give him the wisdom, knowledge and understanding he needs to lead this country. Keep him close to You; always looking to You for answers. Protect him and all around him. May those who surround him, be faithful, honest and wise.

Father, protect our troops, everywhere they serve throughout the world. Let them and their families feel Your presence. Bless them abundantly, as they have blessed us.

I pray You wake up your children. Open our eyes to all that is going on in the world: evidence of the signs of the times. and the day we will stand before You.
Put a fire in our hearts to pray, study Your word and spread the good news of salvation. Revive us, Oh Lord.

We thank You for all Your blessings, but most of all for Your gift of salvation. I pray You remind all people that life is short and they must prepare to face You. “The beginning of wisdom is fear of the Lord.” May all people wise up quickly.

In Jesus Name we pray,
Amen

Amen to your beautiful prayer, Linda Frances. Thank you for sharing it with us.

For what great nation is there
that has God so near to it,
as the Lord our God is to us,
for whatever reason we may call upon Him?
