We exalt You, our Lord God, and we worship at Your holy hill; for You are worthy of all honor, glory, praise, and blessing. Mighty and awesome God, we love You and need You. Our nation needs You and our families need You. We can do nothing without You except make messes, but we praise You because we are never without you! Please help us to turn our lives into living sacrifices for You.
On this beautiful Lord's Day that You have made, we pray that You would give unto our military men and women the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of You, that the eyes of their understanding may be enlightened; that they may know what is the hope of Your calling, and what are the riches of the glory of their inheritance in the saints. Equip them with the exceeding greatness of Your power as they believe in You and place their trust in You. Lord, please comfort the families who wait for their loved ones to return home safely from deployment. Send ministers of Your love to assist them and may every homecoming take place with joy.
Father, we ask also for wisdom and discernment for our President and Vice-President, that they may lead this nation with integrity, honesty, and in total obedience to You. Thank You for helping these men and their cabinet members to make wise choices on behalf of the American people. As the tensions between America and North Korea continue to mount, Lord we ask You to direct the path of our President and thwart every work of evil from the North Korean dictator.
Father, we seek repentance for our nation. We are lost. Our moral compass is broken. And yet, we know that You are the God of hope. Father, we ask You to bring us to the foot of the Cross in humbleness and faith. We know that Your Will is that our nation return to You and be faithful unto You. Help each of us to remember that our citizenship is in heaven, Lord, that we may reject the harmful ways of this world and seek to bring Your will to us on earth as it is in heaven.
Lord, we are Your workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which You have prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. Help us to be holy as You are holy, that we may live lives that honor and glorify You, and that we may host Your presence upon this earth. Make us beautiful instruments of Your peace and grace, Lord. In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

This is what the LORD says to Cyrus, His anointed one, whose right hand He will empower. Before Him, mighty kings will be paralyzed with fear. Their fortress gates will be opened, never to shut again.
2 This is what the LORD says: “I will go before you, Cyrus, and level the mountains. I will smash down gates of bronze and cut through bars of iron. 3 And I will give you treasures hidden in the darkness—secret riches. I will do this so you may know that I am the LORD, the God of Israel, the One who calls you by name.
4 “And why have I called you for this work? Why did I call you by name when you did not know Me? It is for the sake of Jacob My servant, Israel My chosen one. 5 I am the LORD; there is no other God. I have equipped you for battle, though you don’t even know me, 6 so all the world from east to west will know there is no other God. I am the LORD, and there is no other. 7 I create the light and make the darkness. I send good times and bad times. I, the LORD, am the one who does these things.
8 “Open up, O heavens, and pour out your righteousness. Let the earth open wide so salvation and righteousness can sprout up together. I, the LORD, created them.
9 “What sorrow awaits those who argue with their Creator. Does a clay pot argue with its maker?
Does the clay dispute with the one who shapes it, saying, ‘Stop, you’re doing it wrong!’ Does the pot exclaim, ‘How clumsy can you be?’ 10 How terrible it would be if a newborn baby said to its father, ‘Why was I born?’ or if it said to its mother, ‘Why did you make me this way?’”
11 This is what the LORD says—the Holy One of Israel and your Creator: “Do you question what I do for My children? Do you give Me orders about the work of My Hands? 12 I am the one Who made the earth and created people to live on it. With My Hands I stretched out the heavens. All the stars are at My command. 13 I will raise up Cyrus to fulfill My righteous purpose, and I will guide His actions. He will restore My city and free My captive people—without seeking a reward! I, the LORD of Heaven’s Armies, have spoken!”
FATHER GOD,
GOD of creation. EVERLASTING LORD. LORD of Heaven’s Armies.
Thank You for raising up a GOD-fearing President and Vice-President to lead America for such a time as this. You hear the cries of Your people throughout the world who are held captive and are being martyred for Your Name’s sake. You have given us mighty leaders who will rid the world of ISIS and tyrants. You will use our nation to restore Jerusalem.
The LORD JESUS CHRIST is coming soon. You are pouring out Your SPIRIT upon all people. Salvation and righteousness to sprout up together.
Praise the Name of JESUS. Holy, holy, holy is He.
In JESUS Name we pray. Amen.
Holy God, let your Spirit once again revive us and our nation. Let us see you: awaken each of us to our ministry to share the truth of reconciling love in our Savior, Jesus. We pray for the physical, intellectual and spiritual protection of President Trump and Vice President Pence. Give them and given them your Peace that passes understanding even as they are attacked and persecuted. Their struggle us not against flesh and blood but against the powers and principalities. Thank you for your ever present love and strength, we pray in Jesus name. Amen
Amen!!!
Psalm 46
To the leader. Of the Korahites. According to Alamoth. A Song.
1 God is our refuge and strength,
a very present* help in trouble.
2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change,
though the mountains shake in the heart of the sea;
3 though its waters roar and foam,
though the mountains tremble with its tumult.
Selah
4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
the holy habitation of the Most High.
5 God is in the midst of the city;* it shall not be moved;
God will help it when the morning dawns.
6 The nations are in an uproar, the kingdoms totter;
he utters his voice, the earth melts.
7 The Lord of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our refuge.*
Selah
8 Come, behold the works of the Lord;
see what desolations he has brought on the earth.
9 He makes wars cease to the end of the earth;
he breaks the bow, and shatters the spear;
he burns the shields with fire.
10 ‘Be still, and know that I am God!
I am exalted among the nations,
I am exalted in the earth.’
11 The Lord of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our refuge.*
Selah
