Please join with fellow FREEPERS to pray for our President and Vice-President-Elect and for America: Government, Family, Military, Business, Education, Churches, and the Media.
This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. I John 5:14

Holy and Righteous God,
How easy it is to slip away from You when we fail to honor Your Word and Your truths. How safe and comfortable it is to simply go along with the opinions of the world so that we don’t have to appear contrary or “different.” Lord, forgive us of our weakness. Only with You and through You can we have the strength to stand for what is good and true. We ask You to help us always to preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; for only then can we be useful and faithful to You and Your Kingdom.
Lord, during this week when our new President is inaugurated, we turn to You with hearts full of gratitude for Your mercy on America. Thank You, Lord, for President-Elect Donald Trump and VP-Elect Mike Pence, for the new cabinet members, new advisors, and new leaders of every assignment. We are asking, Lord, for Your wisdom for each one of them. We are asking, Lord, for Your protection for each one of them. And we ask, Lord, for the heart of each one to be turned to You. Father, please let every portion of the inauguration festivities of this week bring glory and honor to You. And Father, we also pray that America would be a blessing to the other nations of this world, especially Israel.
Father, we commit our military men and women and seek Your gracious care for them. Surely You are the God who strengthens them, Who helps them, Who upholds them with Your righteous right hand. We do not cease to give thanks for them, making mention of them in our prayers, that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto them the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him.
Precious Lord, we need people of God who are willing to stand for all of Your truths---not just those that are popular or convenient. Father, give us the courage and boldness we need to make a difference in this dark world. We are the only representatives of Your love that some people will ever see. May we cast off the veil and boldly proclaim Your truth in love. Help us, Lord, to be the salt and light that You have called us to be. Help us to make America a country after Your own heart. In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Thank you for this beautiful prayer for our nation. This is a crucial week and we know the power of prayer, when fervently prayed. I have copied this to pass it along. Hope that is OK.
Thanks for the prayer this morning. I am heading into work where they have already made it known via pleas for more help that we are quite short-staffed. (holiday weekend) I pray that I will honor Him through my deeds, be gratious in my manner, let His light shine and overcome my weakness to complain.
Amen
