Go ye therefore, and teach all nations,
baptizing them in the Name of the Father, and the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you;
and lo, I am with you always,
even unto the end of the world.
Matthew 28:19-20

Heavenly Father,

We praise You, O Lord, among the people: we sing unto You among the nations, for Your mercy is great unto the heavens, and Your truth unto the clouds. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens: let Your glory be above all the earth.

Father, we so often forget about Your command to go forth and share the Gospel. But even more, we pay little heed to Your request that we teach others to observe all things. So often we worry only about the eternal destiny of others and fail to help them become true disciples of Jesus Christ. Lord, we ask that each one of our military men and women would become enraptured with the love of God and that they would let the Word of God guide them in all their ways.

Lord, we want so much for our country to be a true friend of Israel, supporting them in this time of great need. Please let the people of this nation pray for our brothers and sisters and offer support to them in any way possible. May the prayers of this nation be used mightily as Israel faces tremendous threats from those who wish to eliminate them.

Father, You have been our help in ages past, and You continue to be our help today. We know that our nation has fallen far from You. Make us leaders in a move of repentance for America, Lord, that we may return to the center of Your will. Without You, there is no hope. With You, we can be restored to the nation You have called us to be. Give us the boldness we need to make a difference as we stand in the gap for our beloved country. Lord, You are faithful. We praise You and bless You, in the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

PRAYERS ASCENDING ON HIGH FOR OUR AMERICAN HEROES AND FOR OUR BELOVED NATION!



GEN. GEORGE WASHINGTON
THE PRAYER AT VALLEY FORGE

"Let Tyrants Shake Their Iron Rod"
William Billings
Mixed District Choir, Fairfax, Virginia

IN THE COLDEST and darkest days of the American Revolution, General George Washington raised his prayers for the survival of his beleaguered Army and of the new Nation. The Lord answered his prayers, upheld his Army through a punishing nadir to everlasting Glory, and bestowed His Manifold Blessings upon the new Nation.


Lafayette

Steuben

Pulaski

FROM THE BRAVE, albeit weary, ill-equipped, and untrained volunteers who marched into Valley Forge on 19 December 1777 arose, with the help of some gallant friends from across the waves, the cohesive fighting force that became the United States Army, global defender of Freedom and scourge of Tyrants.



AS GENERAL WASHINGTON lifted his prayers on high in that bleak Winter, let our prayers now rise like a fountain for our Heroes in the American Armed Forces who seek to secure the benefits of Freedom on behalf of a people hungry for them. Father, look on our prayers for them with favor, guide their steps in righteousness and gather them in the shelter of Your Healing Wings. Bless and uphold them in the performance of their Mission. Through Jesus Christ, Your Son, with the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever, Amen.

HEAVENLY FATHER, Lord of the Nations, unto Your Divine Mercy we commend the souls of these valiant men and women who have fallen in the service of our Beloved Nation and in defense of the Freedoms we hold dear. We pray that You gather them in Your Loving Embrace, that You cause Your Countenance to shine upon them, and that You vouchsafe their souls to dwell eternally in Your Divine Presence. Through Jesus Christ Your Son, with the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever, Amen.

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
