Pray for the Republic and Obama Weeks 69-71

Posted on 03/15/2010 10:19:27 PM PDT by Blogger

I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree. Yet he passed away, and, lo, he [was] not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found. Mark the perfect [man], and behold the upright: for the end of [that] man [is] peace. But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off. (Psalm 37:35-38)


TOPICS: Prayer
KEYWORDS:
Lord God, I come to You today watching my country's government and being stunned at the audacity of those who claim to represent us. Are they in an alternate universe? How shameful! Then, I look at the nation and more than half of the people are against the action they are taking; and yet, it seems they are going to let them just get by with it. Are they spraying us with stuff to make us passive? Where is America's fighting spirit? Have we become so cynical so as to not risk the wrath of someone like Pelosi? I'm sad for my country. I am fearful for her. She teeters on the edge of a precipice and won't so much as take a stand and oppose it. Where are the men and women who will say count me in when it comes to leading this country back to its foundations? Are they gone? Is America gone? Lord, only You know and only You can save her.

I know our nation deserves Your wrath. Our abortions have made our streets flow with blood and our rivers and oceans stink with the corruption of deeds of selfishness and callousness. Greed and stupidity caused our nation to elect a Marxist to power. And Naivety and apathy keep him there. God of all Creation, save us from ourselves. Draw us back to You. Keep our corrupt government from destroying us all. And help us to learn the lesson so that we don't repeat it.

For it is in Jesus' Holy name and precious name that I pray these things, Amen.

May it be, Merciful Father, that we find favor and mercy in Your sight, not by merit of our own, but through the Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. By the Power of the Holy Spirit, call us to repentance, for none other can save but You, Jesus.

Joel 2:12-17

Rend Your Heart

12 “Even now,” declares the LORD,
“return to me with all your heart,
with fasting and weeping and mourning.”
13 Rend your heart
and not your garments.
Return to the LORD your God,
for he is gracious and compassionate,
slow to anger and abounding in love,
and he relents from sending calamity.
14 Who knows? He may turn and have pity
and leave behind a blessing—
grain offerings and drink offerings
for the LORD your God.
