We worship You, Holy God, and come to You with our Highest Praise! Thank You for Saving us, for Raising us from the Grave. We Walk in Life, and Dwell in Love, through the Merit of Your Son. Our Father, how we Adore You, and Praise You for Your Sovereign Grace.
O God of Mercy, Loving and Kind, Please Forgive our Nation of her Sins. Restore us, our Savior-King, to the Ways of Jesus our Christ. Be Pleased, Sovereign Majesty, to Send Your Spirit and Your Grace. Quicken us, Revive us, and Return us to Godliness again.
Thank You, our Warrior-King, for the Victories You Grant to our Troops. Each Day we are So Thankful as we Remember their Courage and Strength. Keep them Safe, O Powerful King; Be their Invincible Shield. Reward them, our Righteous Lord, for their Lives of Great Sacrifice.
We Remember our Persecuted Brethren in Prayer, Pleading for their Safety, through Grace. Help them, O Father our King; Blanket them in Your Daily Care.
We Pray for Your Beloved Israel, Asking for her Protection and Peace. In All Things, we Call upon Thee, our Compassionate, Caring Lord God.
We Pray for the Salvation of Sinners, through the Atonement of Your Son. We Plead that those in Authority over us will Come to Reverence Your Name. Send us Champions for the Helpless; Men who will Stand for the Unborn. Deliver us, our Mighty One, from the Tyranny of Evil Men.
We Exalt You, our Loving Shepherd-King, and Thank You for Hearing our Prayers. In Jesus Name, for Your Eternal Glory and Praise, amen.
'Unto Him that Loves us,
And Washed us from our Sins in His Own Blood,
And hath Made us Kings and Priests unto God and His Father;
To Him be Glory and Dominion Forever and Ever, amen.'
(Rev.1:5,6)
Amen! Thank you for leading us in prayer today.

Don’t make such a big deal about it.
Go to a private room, close the door behind you, turn off the lights and pray to the Father that He may protect and rescue this nation from the self-induced mess that it is in.
He didn’t cause this mess — we did.

Amen.
When my husband, Jay, and I decided to build a new house, we didnt recruit friends and family who enjoy working with power tools; instead we hired a skilled builder to create something both functional and beautiful.
Beauty in the church building, however, is not always a high priority. Some associate it with impracticality, so anything ornate or decorative is considered wasteful. But that wasnt Gods attitude when He established a place of worship for the ancient Israelites. He didnt recruit just anybody to set up an ordinary tent. He appointed skilled craftsmen, Bezalel and Oholiab (Ex. 36:1), to decorate the tabernacle with finely-woven tapestries and intricately designed ornaments (37:17-20).
I think the beauty was important then because it reminded the people of the worth of God in their worship. During the dry and dusty days of desert wanderings, they needed a reminder of Gods majesty.
The beauty created by Gods people in worship settings today can serve the same purpose. We offer God our best talents because He is worthy. Beauty also gives us a glimpse of heaven and whets our appetites for what God is preparing for our future.
Read: Exodus 36:1-7
Amen...Joining in prayer for all our Heroes and our Nation.
Joining you in prayer to Our Heavenly Father for our troops and our nation.
I join in prayer for our heroes and nation!
Amen
Amen.
Yes, and amen!
