PRAYER for Our Nation
This was shared in an email from the Presidential Prayer Team:
Declaration of Independence Signer
George Washington (1732-1799), 1st President of the United States
"Almighty God: We make our earnest prayer that Thou wilt keep the United States in Thy Holy protection; and Thou wilt incline the hearts of the Citizens to cultivate a spirit of subordination and obedience to Government; and to entertain a brotherly affection and love for one another and for their fellow Citizens of the United States at large, and particularly for their brethren who have served in the Field. And finally that Thou wilt most graciously be pleased to dispose us all to do justice, to love mercy, and to demean ourselves with that Charity, humility, and pacific temper of mind which were the Characteristics of the Divine Author of our blessed Religion, and without a humble imitation of whose example in these things we can never hope to be a happy nation. Grant our supplication we beseech Thee, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen." --
This prayer of George Washington appears in St. Paul's Chapel in New York City.

Thank you precious ones for standing in the gap with me. I've linked your blog to the Blog hop just now ((hugs))
Thank-you for your prayers on behalf of all asking for them, and thank-you to all of you who do plead on their behalf! Thank-you for the prayers lifted up for my son and his 4 daughters. God knows their situation, and we are requesting prayer this very moment as the fate of the 4 little girls for the immediate future will be decided in court this afternoon.
This Fearless Friday post is a blessing. I am trying hard to remain calm in Him, and know whatever is decided , He has allowed it...in all areas of our lives.
Hello Beautiful Peggy. Thank you for the comment you left re: my prayer post. God bless you for standing in the gap and praying for so many.
Love and blessings to you!
Beth
Heavenly Father,
We come before Your holy throne seeking justice from Your courts for KathyB's son & his 4 daughters! Oh LORD, You know the full picture though with our eyes we can't see it, we ask that Your will be done in the best welfare of these precious ones.
You are in control & You alone can move mountains! May the courts ears be open and may they move in Your Almighty wisdom!
As difficult as it may be, we come before You in trust, knowing that You are a great God of mercy & grace! So we bind anything that is not from You and ask that You flow with assurance & peace over Kathy!
Your will be done! Help us to understand Your will in this and accept that You can do the impossible but the right & just
decision. We know often the courts do not seek You first, or Your wisdom before they decide but we ask that You sway the decision in favor of Your Love & grace for this family. In God, we trust is the motto of this country & though we have failed to stand up for this & our courts have LORD, search the land for those seeking You & if any be found in You, honor this nation.
Have mercy on us and spare our families from Your wrath. We stand against the enemy who may try to come to steal, rob & destroy this family because You O LORD are greater than him. Come in all Your greatness & deliver us from evil. Your plan is for good & to keep us from harm. WE claim this promise. We hope & trust in You! In Jesus blessed Name!
Lord God Almighty, There are many petitions united this day from my sisters linked here. You see each one & know each one before we even ask.
We are united Lord in these requests.
Each one LORD is a heart cry for Your special touch!
I am broken before You today as I read the many that are lifted to Your Throne and yet I know that they are many more.
I am lost LORD for the words that would sum them all up here. I would love to list each one. (but that's the point of the "blog hop"...I hope You bless this modern technology that connects us).
But in the Spirit, LORD I know that You hear & understand. I call
upon Your Name & the blood of Jesus for each one. It is not by my prayer, not by might but by Your Spirit!
The best words are in Your prayer that Your Son Jesus taught us in the "Our Father". So I say that now...and all glory, honor & power is Yours now & forevermore. Blessed be Your name! PRAISE YOU LORD JESUS! Thank You! Thank You that Your will is being done as we release these petitions to You!
And we proclaim that You will answer & we have faith to trust You
for Beth, Angela, Denise, Karen and
Paula & their prayers to You & their own personal needs. We stand firmly & united in Christ Jesus in prayer on the behalf of others! We praise You for all You have done & are doing!
Shine Your light into the darkness & break forth with deliverance where needed. We come against strongholds & curses, whether generational or whatever, in the beloved Name of Jesus! Thank You! Glory to the King! We love You!
Dear heavenly Father, I thank You so very much for my precious prayer warrior sister Peggy. She is such a heart blessing to so many. She loves You with all of her heart, and her light for You shines brightly in this world. I ask that You continue to watch over her, and pour Your blessings all over her life. Thank You Lord. Amen
Dear Lord, I lift Kathys son, and his precious daughters up to You. Have Your way, and Your will in this entire situation. Lord, be with them, keep them safe. I love You Lord. Amen.
God is our Hope , our Redemption, and He does answer the prayers of many! Praise Him!
Friday , after deliberation, the judge granted our son 'Primary Custodian' of his daughters and Saturday our son will pick his daughters up at the local California police station to begin the drive HOME to Washington , and my husband and I are firmly convinced it is the prayers of the brothers and sisters in Christ who made the difference. I have been weeping on and off for joy at this amazing answer to prayer. Thank-you all so very, very much!
I lift up my eyes to the hills--where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip--he who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD watches over you--the LORD is your shade at your right hand; the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. The LORD will keep you from all harm--he will watch over your life; the LORD will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore. Psalm 121:1-8
OH LORD we are REJOICING for Kathy's son & the reunion & custodianship of his 4 daughters!!! Halleluia! Glory to You, Most Holy One! You stormed the gates of hell & nothing is too great for You! Praise be to the King! Our LORD God Almighty be exalted & lifted high!
Bless you KathyB...there is no one like Our God!!!
Oh My Precious LORD, I am overwhelmed by Your love! Thank You for my sister Denise & that she prays for me! I am so thankful for her standing in the gap with me for prayers of the many needs that we encounter here in "blogland"! Pour Your abundant blessings & healing all over Denise. Keep her close to You! As she pours out of herself in prayer & on her knees, may Denise be filled by Your Holy Spirit more & strengthen LORD along with all the women doing LOAM with Lisa!
We hold each & every one before Your throne for the great & mighty things You are changing & doing in each one! Thank You as they surrender & submit to You! Hold up Angela as she is the covering as well as Lisa's husband. We love You LORD! Come through with all Your might & power to transform hearts & lives for Your glory!
