Its a little long again....but as I’ve been praying for our troops and those who support them - especially the rallies in Berkeley today, the FReep in Olney finishing up right now and the PGR planned attendance at a mortuary convention in L.A., this what the Lord led me to pray. As usual, please join in prayer as He leads....May God bless each of you, your families and loved ones richly with an increase of His presence in Your lives this Resurrection Day. And thank you, thank you for your prayers. You already know how important they are. For our Mighty Warrior King and His glory!!!
Heavenly Father, Mighty Warrior King, Lord of the Armies, Prince of Peace and Lamb of God who was crucified and rose again, opening the gates of heaven for all of us. This is earth not heaven. There has always been a price for freedom because evil exists and will always seek to dominate more and more land and hearts. None of us desire war. But if we stand idly by and let evil encroach because of our desire for peace, we will not ensure peace but eventual domination by those who seek personal gain and power over freedom of the people to be who God created them to be. The dignity of every human life must be ensured.
We have been on our knees praying, asking forgiveness for the sins of our country which over the past 40 years has begun to embrace a culture of death more than Your culture of life. We have been on our knees praying for Your mercy – that You would come with revival power, with a river of increase of Your Holy Spirit, that by Your hand in response to our prayers, You would restore the land. Lord God, You are answering our prayers and we thank You. The worship and prayers of Your faithful continues to be sweet incense to Your heavenly nostrils and You are drawing near. With You comes all that You are – all Your attributes in increase. Lord God wake the sleeping Christians. It is time to rebuild the broken down walls, dwellings and streets of our country as in Nehemiah’s time. It is time for each person to find their place on the walls for there is much work to be done and You have pre-ordained each person’s place so that every spot on the wall is manned. Lord God it is time for people to stand up, to get off couches of malcontent and complaint and to stand for Your principles, being seen and heard and making a difference until our voices are heard and our country re-built on the foundation of You.
Lord God, we thank You for each and every person already standing up and manning their place on the wall. This morning, on this prayer thread, we thank you especially for those who stand up for our troops. We stand in agreement providing prayer and worship cover for all they do, bowing before You in the full awareness of who You are and beseeching You to be with them in all they do. Let the cloud of Your glory accompany each and every troop-supporting action today. Call forth exactly those who You intended to attend these events. Give them Your Spirit and Your heart so that HOW they stand for our troops looks different than the anti-war protestors. Lord God, these say they are opposed to war in the world, however, when we look at the fruit of their root motives we do not see a people who are seeking peace. Many operate in anger, slander, accusation, hatred, bitterness and deceit. These are not fruit of Your Spirit but fruit of the opposite spirit and therefore it is not of You. Lord God, if we are to have Your covering and make impact by our standing up not only in the physical realm, but in the supernatural, eternal realm as well, if we are to have Your power in our actions (the only way progress will be made), then we must operate in a way that exhibits Your character – the fruit of Your Spirit. We must stand firm in love, in truth, in the quiet solid confidence of knowing You are Righteousness and Justice, that You are the way and fighting for freedom and dignity of the individual is part of it. So, be with those who stand for those who fight for us today. Help them to operate in the fruit of Your Spirit- love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, faithfulness and self-control by Your power even as they move by Your power to retake the land.
See our worship, hear our prayers. Be with troop supporters in their actions in Berkeley today, in Olney, in Southern California, with Vets for Freedom as they continue their National Heroes Tour across this great land…You know all the places You have called them to stand up. We pray herewith for each and every one. We pray also that they would see Your hand in how the events go today and we promise to give You the glory – to tell the story of Your provision and protection which will always exceed expectations in ways we would have never imagined.
See our obedience to Your Way and honor our ongoing worship and prayers by a mighty move of Your power, Your way in this movement in our country. We won’t tell You what this should look like because Your ways are so superior to ours. But we promise to be before Your throne day and night until the work is done.
And Lord God, special Resurrection Day blessing on each and every member of our Armed Forces and their families. By our worship and their own, increase the hedge of protection around them and the covering of Your sovereign protection. And today we ask also that You would protect, grow and deepen their marriages, help their children through the long times of separation and draw each and every one of them closer to You. Thank you for their faithfulness to Your call as they stand up for our country and the world.
The battle is Yours. God bless America. God bless our troops. God bless those who support them. In Jesus’ mighty, precious Name, Amen.
Amen
BTTT

We will not be able to enjoy our God given freedoms without fighting for them. That is unfortunate but we are only human.

Svcw, I'll Lift your Grandbaby, Son, and Daughter-in-Law to our Lord in my Bedtime Prayers.
I stand in agreement in the Holy Name of Jesus, amen.

Lord God, we are thankful....so thankful for how You answered our prayers for the weekend, especially in Berkeley. Lord God how amazing You are, how wonderful Your ways!! We choose to stop for a moment and simply give thanks for all You did. You brought soooo many good people to stand up for our military. And with their action came good report that everyone acted in a way that honors You. No one stooped to the ugly tactics of the enemy - operating in hatred, anger or bitterness. And there was a spirit of unity among those who came. Boldness in standing up for our military and yet a joy in the work. Thank you God for every single person who came and every single person who provided prayer cover or helped in any other way. Lord God, please bless each one of them and their families.
You promise that when we follow where You lead, You will be our Protector and Provider, meeting all our needs sufficiently. Meet the needs of those who serve You in this country, Lord God. Meet the needs of those standing up for our troops here and for our troops and their families who are fighting the War On Terror in every capacity.
We thank You for Your Sovereign hand in our lives. We thank You that through You there will be victory.
Continue raising up those who will do the work. Bring more to each rally.
Thank you for the media coverage. Continue to break through in a way people will know it was by Your power to cause more TRUTH to be reported.
We wait in joyful hope for what You will do next and bow in thanksgiving for what You have done - both seen and unseen.
Hear our prayers. Protect all those who are serving in dangerous places and uncover the enemy. The battle is Yours, Lord. Thank you for being our God, our Mighty Warrior King - Lord of the armies. In Jesus’ name, Amen
Standing in agreement with your beautiful and complete prayer... Amen!!
