“When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory. All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats. And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left. Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’
“Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’
—Matthew 25:31-40

When Jesus again entered Capernaum, the people… gathered in such large numbers that there was no room left, not even outside the door, and he preached the word to them. Some men came, bringing to him a paralyzed man, carried by four of them. Since they could not get him to Jesus because of the crowd, they made an opening in the roof above Jesus by digging through it and then lowered the mat the man was lying on. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralyzed man, “Son, your sins are forgiven.”
—Mark 2:2-5

“It wasn’t the faith of the paralyzed man that made him better; it was the faith of his friends.”
—Pastor Zach Zehnder

Father God,
Most Holy and High Redeemer, You Are perfect, omniscient love and justice! We come before You in the Name of Your Son Jesus to pray for our nation.

If we as citizens grow weary of the screeching of the evil one through his minions the Deep State, we cannot imagine how our President and all who work for him must feel. But we must never weary of doing good. We pray with those who pray, and we pray for those who, for whatever reason, cannot pray. We pray because our Lord taught us to extend His love and care to those who hunger and thirst for righteousness.

We thank You, Lord, for this opportunity to gather in prayer, for FreeRepublic, for this assembly of sweet spirits from all corners of our nation into this Vigil group, and for our benefactor Jim Robinson. We pray for the battered hearts of all American patriots, past and present, especially our veterans and the families of the war dead who have given so much for our freedom, only to hear it trampled upon by the current outpouring of distortion and hatred against Western Civilization, where the rule of law was born with the Israelites, and where Christendom’s virtues not only flourished, but also were enshrined in America’s Founding and our civic law.

Your Word has predicted how the end times must be. Help us to avoid the descending strong delusion, to stand firm and run the race to the end, praying continually for the Church, our nation’s mothers and fathers and children, the clergy, our military and first responders, schools and universities, governments at all levels, our judiciary and our President’s reforms therein, our healthcare providers, grassroots volunteers, and all who command the levers of power in our media systems. Seal the good, the just and the true within their ranks, Lord God, and drive out selfishness, self-righteousness and careless evil that can bring down our great country.

Help our nation re-establish herself as the beacon of freedom, the private and public virtues that enable the charity, valor and plainspokenness that once characterized our land. For these things we pray: truth, wisdom, honor, and integrity from highest to lowest and east to west within our country and in our dealings with other nations. Surround our President and all his supporters with Divine protection and guidance, Lord, we pray,

In Jesus’ name,

Amen.

When We Pray

People hurting, people broken
Beaten down and feeling hopeless
Wonder if it's gonna always be this way
Who will speak up for the captive
Show some love and heal a past that
Binds the wounds we think will never go away

But what if we could be a people on our knees
As one before the King, ’cause we believe

All the world starts changing when the church starts praying
Strongholds start to break, oh, when we pray
Prison walls start shaking at the sound of praising
Nothing stays the same, oh, when we pray
Oh, when we pray, oh

I see revival rising, I see hope on the horizon
As a generation stepping out in faith
Because we will be a people on our knees
As one before the King, ’cause we believe

All the world starts changing when the church starts praying
Strongholds start to break, oh, when we pray
Prison walls start shaking at the sound of praising
Nothing stays the same, oh, when we pray
Oh, when we pray, oh

Let Your kingdom come, Lord
Let Your will be done

All the world starts changing when the church starts praying
Strongholds start to break, oh, when we pray
[repeat]
Prison walls start shaking at the sound of praising
Nothing stays the same, oh, when we pray
When we pray, oh, when we pray
When we pray

FATHER, we gather to offer our Praise and Thanksgiving.
The President is in dire need of Your Divine Intervention.
That he is still standing is only by Your Will and the fact You have given him the opportunity to become the man we need at this time.
Please, my LORD, keep him safe as he travels to the state of heathens and criminals.
Instruct Your Angels to guard him with cover, seeing that no harm comes to him.

We pray he will do Your will in eliminating the moles which make the foundation of this nation highly unstable.
Please give him the necessities to erase Socialism, Satan’s curse, from this world.

As always, we pray for our brethren, ill
and injured, that they be healed in spirit, mental,
and physical health.
“He calls each one by name”
We pray in JESUS’ Name. Amen.

HEAR OUR PRAYER, OH LORD

In addition. We ask for many Christians to step up and run for office in obedience to Your call and our need.

We have been complacent and apathetic for far too long.
This is sin.

Dear God, forgive us.

In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
