Lord, how we Love You! For You have Done Such Tremendous Things for us.' (Ps.18:1) Born in Sin, we had No Remedy, and No Hope. You Came to us, Jesus; You Spoke to us Your Word: "Live!" Be Praised, Your Excellency, for the Awesome Work You have Done! We've Passed from Death to Eternal Life, through the Grace of the Son!
Our Master, it Grieves us that So Many Hate our Brother-President. 'Lord, how are they Increased that Trouble me! Many are they that Rise Up Against me.' (Ps.3:1) Please Bare Your Holy Arm, Lord, and Vindicate him for All to See. Thank You for Undertaking for Your Servant, Caring God. Thank You that You Love him; Your Blessing is Upon Your Child. (Ps.3:8)
We Ask, Abba-Father, for the Election of Many Godly Men. Be Pleased, Lord, to Strengthen Senator McCain and Governor Palin. 'O Lord my God, in Thee I Put my Trust: Save me from All that Persecute me, and Deliver me.' (Ps.7:1) May the satanic Attacks Against them be Thwarted, our Mighty King. Please Shield Sarah from the Irrational Rage of Wicked Men. Thank You for Guarding her, and for Hearing our Earnest Prayers.
Your Highness, May Your Power Strengthen and Safeguard our Troops. May Your Praise be in their Mouths, and Your Peace in their Hearts. Please Help Every Man to Reverance our Lord Jesus Christ.
Be Pleased, our Shepherd, to Keep our America Safe. We Ask Forgiveness for our Iniquities, our Holy God. Thank You for Guarding us from Terrorists and Wicked Men.
'I will Praise the Lord According to His Righteousness, and will Sing Praise to the Name of the Lord Most High.' (Ps.7:17) We Worship You, Your Majesty, and Exalt the Name of Your Son. Through Jesus' Grace, for the King's Eternal Glory, amen.

I join in prayer for President Bush, the Administration, McCain, Palin and our heroes standing in harm’s way!
AMEN SISTER AND GRACE TO ALL CHRISTIAN PATRIOTS!
“Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar.”
- Psalm 120:5
As a Christian you have to live in the midst of an ungodly world, and it
is of little use for you to cry “Woe is me.” Jesus did not pray that you
should be taken out of the world, and what he did not pray for, you need
not desire. Better far in the Lord’s strength to meet the difficulty, and
glorify him in it. The enemy is ever on the watch to detect inconsistency
in your conduct; be therefore very holy. Remember that the eyes of all are
upon you, and that more is expected from you than from other men. Strive
to give no occasion for blame. Let your goodness be the only fault they
can discover in you. Like Daniel, compel them to say of you, “We shall not
find any occasion against this Daniel, except we find it against him
concerning the law of his God.” Seek to be useful as well as consistent.
Perhaps you think, “If I were in a more favourable position I might serve
the Lord’s cause, but I cannot do any good where I am”; but the worse the
people are among whom you live, the more need have they of your exertions;
if they be crooked, the more necessity that you should set them straight;
and if they be perverse, the more need have you to turn their proud hearts
to the truth. Where should the physician be but where there are many sick?
Where is honour to be won by the soldier but in the hottest fire of the
battle? And when weary of the strife and sin that meets you on every hand,
consider that all the saints have endured the same trial. They were not
carried on beds of down to heaven, and you must not expect to travel more
easily than they.
They had to hazard their lives unto the death in the high places of the
field, and you will not be crowned till you also have endured hardness as
a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
Therefore, “stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.
“
C.H.SPURGEON
SOLI DEO GLORIA!
Amen. Thank You, Sir, for sending Your Word to our troops so that faith to receive Jesus can grow in them. Strengthen Your believers among them to seek first Your Kingdom and Your righteousness. Help them to lift Jesus higher as You open doors of utterance and fill their mouths so that men can be drawn unto Him.
Amen.
Amen.
Joan Rosenhauer, Associate Director for the USCCB’s Department of Justice, Peace and Human Development, said that the special novena is part of “the bishops’ campaign to help Catholics develop well-formed consciences for addressing political and social questions.” The bishops issued their statement on forming consciences for faithful citizenship in November 2007.
Helen Osman, USCCB Secretary of Communications, expressed hope that the novena could help “Catholics enter into prayerful reflection as they prepare to vote.” Seventy-one percent of all visitors to the USCCB’s web site download the free podcasts of the daily NAB readings. These same visitors are encouraged to use the novena podcast for prayer. Osman said that the USCCB wants to support Catholics as they weigh pre-election issues and that “providing a prayer resource on the Web can help us focus on our common values and identity as Catholics.” The novena emphasizes the dignity of life, justice, and peace.
The Novena for Faithful Citizenship runs for nine days and can be used consecutively, one day each week, for nine days prior to the election, or “in any way that works best for a community or individual,” said Rosenhauer.
The novena will be available for download until the election and it can be downloaded online at http://www.faithfulcitizenship.org/resources/podcasts.

Dear Lord Jesus, watch over this nation and help us to cleanse it of hatred, evil and corruption.
Give us this day our daily bread. Let us forgive who wrong us, but smite mightily those who try to destroy us, from within or without.
Protect those walking in Your spirit and shut out the voices of lies against them.
You are our breath, our life, Lord. We are not marionettes, toys on strings, Father. We are flesh and blood, Your children, living through Your spirit in our hearts.
We praise Your name with each breath we take. Amen.
Amen, Holy God. Deliver Senator McCain and Governor Palin from the plots and schemes of evil men and women who seek their destruction. May those who rise up against them be put to shame and become ensnared in their own evil devices. Set them all to confusion, Lord, and silence the poison that comes from their lips. Defend Your servants, Holy God, and rescue us from this unrelenting assault by the Left and by all those who refuse to bow down to You. In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
” And the Lord said....satan hath desired to have thee, that he may sift you as wheat but I have prayed for thee,
that thy faith fail not thee”
Luke 22:31-32
Thank you for the ping to join my brothers and sisters in prayer for our beloved President, beautiful Laura, our Troops and Sec. McCain and our Sarah and her precious family. They are all fighting the Good Fight Of Faith for our Great Country and her citizens.
I agree with each and every prayer and thank our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for His Faithfulness, Grace and Mercy to US and say amen, in His Blessed Name!
