God knows Him, too, lookout. He tells us to pray for those in authority over us so we can live in peace. I pray for him to repent, to turn away from serving false gods, to be saved and be changed!
Just thought it pretty ironic...your screen name...and your seeming resistance to pray for Obama.
No worries FRiend........
I believe she previously posted under the name Lisa Malia.
**The Lord says to pray for our enemies.**
You mnake my point. Thank you. Make it a separate thread. Pray for Obama on one thread. Pray for our nation on another. It’s very simple. Thanks, again, for making my point.
I would post to the Pray for Our Nation thread. In fact someone asked me about posting one today.
Have you ever read 1 Corinthians, 14th chapter?
I think there is a separate thread that is just pray for the nation.
look, if you are not willing to admit that there are places in which spirited discourse should not be engaged, then there really is nothing for us to talk about.
Amen, blogger. You got it right.
My prayers for Obama would be that he put what little brain functioning he seems to have going on to work and THINK!
But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you, Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you. (Luke 6:27-28 KJV)
FWIW you don't have to support your enemies to pray for them. My prayer is that God keeps his promise to change his heart in the same way he changes the course of rivers and streams.
It is easy to pray for your friends. But Jesus wants us to take the hard road. He asks us to pray for our enemies. It is certainly not an easy road to travel. But I have respect for those who do.
The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will. (Proverbs 21:1 KJV)
Pray for THAT.
If the statement @ #63 is incorrect, please advise and I’ll have it removed.
Which pretty much sums up what I am praying for - for him. I will also be praying against some things he wants to put forward - such as the defeat of certain legislation. God can always say yes or no, of course; but, ultimately, He is the only one who can bring about true transformation of our society (avoiding the words change and hope here)
Lisa has been here for 9 months.
I rather live in war then follow him. He will NEVER EVER!! be in authority of me. Not for one second will I respect him. I want my son out of the military, the gays can protect this dump.
I do not believe that is correct.
Posting under her current FR screen name, yes, but........
Great word, P-Marlowe!
See all the attention you're getting.
“Well, this is really sad. Very sad. Folks praying for Obama, the man who will be the downfall of our country, but on THIS WEBSITE, our voices are surpressed.
In my church, dont know about yours, but freedom of expression is still allowed, and encouraged.
This is just the beginning, I guess.”
Print this statement you juast made and take it to your Church and ask your priest/preacher/rabbi whichever what he/she thinks of your thought expressed here and also the statement you made that NOBAMA doesn’t “DESERVE” your prayers.. I am sure He/She will council you appropriatly
Peace of Christ
You could try praying that his heart is changed and that he become pro life.
You could pray that he doesn't mess things up too badly.
You could pray that he doesn't get to make any SC appointments
You could pray that God directs him to make the right decisions at the right times.
You don't have to necessarily be praying good things for Obama.
