In conclusion, be strong in the Lord [be empowered through your union with Him]; draw your strength from Him [that strength which His boundless might provides].(Eph. 6)
Today, Father, by Your grace, we make a choice to be strong in You. We remember that we are empowered through our union with You. We will draw our strength from Your boundless might and work to do our individual parts in increasing Your Kingdom.
Right now, that means interceding for our precious military men and women and for our Nation. We look to You only for You are our help in time of need. You are our fortress, our deliverer, our only hope. We humble ourselves under Your mighty hand and ask for Your intervention.
Protect each one that You have called to be our servants for our defense and also those who have made their own choice to join the services. Out of Your great love, guide each step into Your good and perfect will for our beloveds life.
I dont know how to pray against the increasing lawlessness we see in our land, so I cast the care on You because I know You care for us. You are well able to convict, save and change one person at a time.
Just because of the blood of Jesus, I pray for mercy, favor and grace for our peoples wherever they are located.
Thank You for hearing and answering our prayers in Jesus name. Amen.
Please help me pray today for our Nation and our military. Such a struggle to find the words today....
Praying with you and for you, dear FRiend!

Read: 1 Corinthians 3:1-11
The Bavarian city of Nördlingen is unique. It sits in the middle of the Ries Crater, a large circular depression caused by the impact of a huge meteorite a long time ago. The immense pressure of the impact resulted in unusual crystallized rock and millions of microscopic diamonds. In the 13th century, these speckled stones were used to build St. Georges Church. Visitors can see the beautiful crystal deposits in its foundation and walls. Some might say it has a heavenly foundation.
The Bible talks of a different kind of heavenly foundation. The Lord Jesus came to our world from heaven (John 3:13). When He went back into heaven after His death and resurrection, He left His followers who became the living temple of God, of which He is the foundation. The apostle Paul says, For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ (1 Cor. 3:11).
The church building in Bavaria is built on a foundation from pieces of rock from the physical heavens. But the spiritual churchall believers in Christis founded on the ultimate heavenly foundation, Christ Jesus (Isa. 28:16; 1 Cor. 10:3-4). Praise God that because of what Jesus has done our salvation is secure.

Dear Hiskid...the LORD is so intimately acquainted with “Still Small Voices” for HIS VERY STRENGTH was heard in just that. And we can stand in that confidence to that our still small voices that are eager to pray hold in them HIS STRENGTH as well. Joining you in prayer for our beloved sons and daughters, husbands and wives, fathers and mothers who live to work to protect our nation...I pray for our nation that we will begin to hear the LORD’s call to repentance, I pray for the suffering among our brothers and sisters, thanking the LORD that He has heard their cries, and have supplied relief among their sufferings. I pray for the church, that we will become the VOICE to be heard in SPIRIT AND TRUTH as we see the governing bodies err, I pray for the GOSPEL to be proclaimed through our Messianic brothers and sisters to all Israel as we join them in Praying for the Peace of Jerusalem, I pray for their Arab neighbors that the fruit of LOVE will replace the thistles of hate. I pray for our police forces, firemen, EMTs and all those who are devoted to keeping law within our nation.
