Psalm 23

1
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

Dear Heavenly Father,

I come to You this day with raging emotions knowing that You and You alone are our help in this time of great trouble. Our hearts are breaking and other emotions such as anger, despair, fear, etc., are swirling around us to the point that we hardly know how to pray. Yet, You know our needs. You know all things and how to best act in this situation. So, Father, I ask for Your hand to be upon America right now, to guide her and to comfort her during this dark dark time.

Father, I pray for President Bush and the government as they take steps to address this murderous action by terrorists. The anger within us would like to see the most extreme penalties thrown at those who perpetrated this trajedy, and those who celebrate because of it. But, Lord, I ask that You would move in President Bush's life right now and give him the wisdom he needs to know how to address this situation. Lord, make him cunning in dealing with his enemies and silence those who would seek to gain politically from this situation. Let the very words that they speak be turned against them for they do not deserve to be our leaders who think only of themselves at such a time as this. Lord, help us to find out exactly who did this and bring them to swift and strong judgment, lest more life be lost from these monsters. Protect President Bush Lord with legions of Your holy angels and keep him and this nation from further harm. Help the families of those who lost their lives Lord and be with them to comfort them. For You are Lord God Almighty and there is none like You in all the earth. HELP US LORD,and use this situation to turn the hearts of Americans back towards You, is my prayer and I pray it in the incomparable name of Christ Jesus my Lord, who is sovereign over all, Amen.

Psalm 91 Confession

1. I dwell in the secret place of the Most High so I abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

2. I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust."

3. Surely He shall deliver me from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence.

4. He shall cover me with His feathers, and under His wings I shall take refuge; His truth shall be my shield and buckler.

5. I shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day,

6. Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.

7. A thousand may fall at my side, and ten thousand at my right hand; but it shall not come near me.

8. Only with my eyes shall I look, and see the reward of the wicked.

9. Because I have made the Lord, who is my refuge, even the Most High, my habitation,

10. No evil shall befall me, nor shall any plague come near my dwelling;

11. For He shall give His angels charge over me, to keep me in all my ways.

12. They shall bear me up in their hands, lest I dash my foot against a stone.

13. I shall tread upon the lion and the copa, the young lion and the serpent I shall trample under foot.

14. Because I have set my love upon Him, therefore He will deliver me; He will set me on high, because I have known His name.

15. I shall call upon Him, and He will answer me; He will be with me in trouble; He will deliver me and honor me.

16. With long life He will satisfy me, and show me His salvation. Heavenly Father, You are our Strength, You are our Protector, You are our refuge and fortress. You are our confidence, firm and strong. Father I have a heavy heart this morning and am saddened and enraged with anger the things that have happened to this nation today. Your hand of protection has been on this nation for so long and we have seen terror strike the innocent in this nation like no other day in our young history as a nation.

We know you are the Great Physician and I pray that you will help those who are treating and rescuing the innocent victims who were killed in this horrible tragedy. Give them strength and supernatural wisdom on treating the victims.

Heavenly Father, we know that terror has befallen on this nation but Your children put our trust in You. We want to intercede for the President this day. I know you have chosen him for "such a time as this" and I pray that You will give him wisdom this day. I pray that You will give him boldness this day to bring this nation together and to show his leadership this day. I pray that you will give wisdom to the military this day and that their plans to attack the perpetrators will be precise and perfect. I pray that we will bring the terrorists who have killed the innocent will come to justice very quickly.

Even though it is hard to see, I pray that good will come out of this horrible tragedy. I pray that there will be many who will come to trust You after this tragedy. We as a nation have had no fear of You because of the great financial times we have gone through. The financial symbol of this nation, the World Trade Center, and the military symbol of this nation, the Pentagon has been attacked. This has brought much fear into people who have not had any fear in the past. We can no longer trust in the things we have but we can only trust You. I pray that Your children will be the salt and light for these lost people who are empty without you. Give Your Church strength during this time to minister to those who are hurt and unsure. Thank you for your salvation and we who know You can rest in You. In Jesus Christ' Name, Amen.

Dear Heavenly Father, we repent for our sins, our wickeness, our slumber, our attempts to live without you and without your word. Forgive us and cleanse our sin. We pled the blood of Jesus over the President and our nation, asking that you would cover us, and forgive us and heal us. We are humbly asking that you would move with mercy upon our nation and deliver us from the enemy. Lord, may you not remove your protection from our nation, for You are our fortress, our deliverer, our present help in this time of need. We ask that you would break a spirit of confusion and dread that is upon us and be our hope. May we have wisdom and may those who need to be rescued find mercy and help soon. We love you Father, and we thank you that you and only you can bring good from evil and provide a glimer of hope for you are our hope. We make our prayers in the precious name of your Son, our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Amen.

Mighty God, Everlasting Father,

O Lord God, to whom vengeance belongs, show Yourself to America this day. Lift up Yourself, judge of the earth; render a reward to the proud. Lord, how long shall the wicked triumph? How long shall they utter and speak hard things, and all the workers of iniquity boast themselves? They break in pieces Your people, O Lord, and they afflict Your heritage. They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.We plead for Your mercy upon this nation, Great God of all the earth lest our enemies would swallow us up. Our hearts are heavy with grief over the deaths and maiming of American citizens. Father, cover Your children with a blanket of Your healing. Comfort the families of the lost. For You, O Lord, will not cast off Your people; neither will You forsake Your inheritance.

Protect our President, Great God. Now more than ever, he needs Your wisdom to know how to respond to these brutal acts of inhuman behavior which have been orchestrated by the devil's hand. Please give him the words to speak as he addresses this shocked and horrified nation. Let him not fear for the terror by night nor the arrow that flies by day; nor for pestilence that stalks in darkness; nor the destruction that wastes at noonday. You will give Your angels charge over him to keep him in all his ways. Let them bear him up in their hands, lest he dash his foot against a stone. You will help him in this time of need, Lord. When he calls upon You, You have promised to answer him. You will be with him in trouble. You will deliver him and honor

Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let Your glory be above all the earth. We need You, Father. Hear our cries and deliver us, in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Psalms 46:1 God [is] our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, Even though the earth be removed, And though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; [Though] its waters roar [and] be troubled, [Though] the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah [There is] a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God, The holy [place] of the tabernacle of the Most High. God [is] in the midst of her, she shall not be moved; God shall help her, just at the break of dawn. The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved; He uttered His voice, the earth melted. The LORD of hosts [is] with us; The God of Jacob [is] our refuge. Selah Come, behold the works of the LORD, Who has made desolations in the earth. He makes wars cease to the end of the earth; He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two; He burns the chariot in the fire. Be still, and know that I [am] God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! The LORD of hosts [is] with us; The God of Jacob [is] our refuge. Selah

Merciful God, bring comfort and compassion to the families and friends whose innocent relatives have been senselessly killed today, and open thy Heavenly arms to the many souls who were taken from this earth. Give us the courage to speak out against this heinous act and show us the way to enlighten others about the sanctity of life. O Lord, may the lives of the victims be remembered in our hearts. Help us to remember always thy way of truth, love, mercy and kindness, as the only way to spiritual peace. We render thee our humble praises, for thy preservation of us from the beginning of our lives to this day and especially for having delivered us from the dangers of this morning. For these thy mercies, we bless and magnify thy glorious Name, humbly beseeching thee to accept this prayer and thanksgiving; through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Amen.

Heavenly Father, help us! Be with the families of those who have lost loved ones on this tragic day; be with the injured; bless the rescue workers and medical personnel who are responding.

I have been on my knees many times this day. I read aloud Psalm 90 and 91......."Those who love me, I will deliver, I will protect those who know my name."

May Almighty God have Mercy on us.

Heavenly Father,

Please grace our President with words of wisdom and comfort as he speaks to the nation tonight. Let Your words fall from his tongue. Let his leadership be that which You desire.

Comfort all those who have lost loved ones. Strengthen and encourage the rescue workers, the physicians and nurses, the military, and all who are dealing with this crisis.

Finally, Lord, please bless America, the land that we love.

In Jesus' Name we pray,
Amen.

Amen and amen. May God be praised as He comforts us in this tragedy. I have been unable to make a net connection most of the day. But, I have a constant connection to my God and have spent the day in the garden of prayer. He will sustain us. I pray that America will turn to Him and unite as one.
