Psalm 26:11Please pray with me:
But as for me, I will walk in my integrity; Redeem me and be merciful to me.
Job 38:36
Who has put wisdom in the mind?[a] Or who has given understanding to the heart?
Heavenly Father,
Our nation is desperate. Your church is desperate. Our level of spiritual maturity has diminished to that of babies. Your church is at fault. Open our eyes that we may confess our sin and repent.
We have enjoyed our freedoms and taken them for granted. We have not prayed fervently for our leaders, or our nation. We have watched as the social fabric has wandered away and then run from the protections You put in place through the behaviors set up in Your Word. We have not activated our prayer life or our daily activities to challenge the moral decline of our nation. Open our eyes that we may confess our sin and repent.
Can it be any wonder that the quality of our leadership has declined? Can a nation that has turned its back on You raise up leadership that honors You? It is not possible. Truly the church is at fault.
Can it be any wonder that the truthful reporting by the national media has deteriorated? Can a nation that has no hunger for truth or righteousness raise up media that seeks it? It is not possible.
John 14:6Truly the church is at fault because Jesus Christ is Truth, and we have not stood up for our right and privilege to proclaim it. Further, we have watched as our First Amendment Right to the Freedom of Speech has been stripped away. The very thing it is meant to protect is all but gone.
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Can it be any wonder that the moral decline of our nation has deteriorated? Can a nation that has backsliden produce a government that seeks after righteousness and Truth? It is not possible.
Activate us, Your church. Raise a spiritual hunger and thirst for Truth that we may mature. May we see Your Word as vital to daily life. May we again become activated as soldiers of Christ. May we take our place in the daily battle by "bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ..." (2 Cor. 10:5)
Is it hopeless? You are our Hope. You have promised wisdom if we ask. May our leadership ask. May we, the people, ask for ourselves and on behalf of our leadership. Your Word clearly states:
James 1:5 (KJV) 5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.Senate confirmations are under way. Many Democrats seem determined to fight for those liberal agendas that would move our nation farther away from You. Have mercy O God. Raise up prayers that this nation may turn to You. Raise up prayers for the spiritual growth of our nation, that again we may produce leaders and government that are spiritually mature.
May Your church rise up through Your Word. May we daily grow through solid understanding of Your Word. May we not take for granted the privilege of studying Your Word and proclaiming it. May we, daily, through our actions, demonstrate that Your Word is Truth and only through You can we enjoy safety and freedom in the nation.
Donald J. Trump chooses his administration, grant him wisdom from above. As he chooses his words, his actions, his public (and private) communication —grant him words that move hearts towards You. Grant him favor before Your throne of grace and endow him with Your wisdom as he leads this nation.
Help us, that we may stand strong and that we may be found faithful in the day of His coming.
In Jesus’ Name.
