Election 2020: For America

Lord God of Creation, My God and my trust,

I appeal to Thee from the depth of my being. You are the Author of Truth. You made light! You said, “Let there be light.” …and darkness was no more. I appeal to You on behalf of this nation.

Darkness pervades …from the depths of hell, darkness has spewed forth against Truth. It has set its nerve to consume all light that is here. It is determined to swallow up and bury all that is good. You, O God, are good. You alone.

Psalm 100:5 For the LORD is good, his mercy is everlasting and his Truth endureth to all generations.

I proclaim Your goodness to America. We have not always done well with the generosity that You have poured out on us. But consider the nations we have supported, the people we have fed, doctors we have sent, the immigrants we have given a home to. Consider wars we have fought to preserve freedom. The enemy, the father of lies, hates us and is set on taking this nation down. I appeal to You on behalf of this nation - for Your mercy is everlasting and Your Truth endureth.

Psalm 73:1 Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart.

O LORD God of heaven and earth, consider the friendship that this nation has given to Israel. How many time in the UN did we stand alone on her behalf? Did President Trump not proclaim the capital to be Jerusalem, Your city!!!…that bears Your Name?

I confess we deserve Your judgement. We have not preserved the freedoms You lavished on us. We have not kept Your mandates that define the marriage covenant, that You made us male and female. We allowed prayer to be taken from our schools and our children to be educated to do the will of those who desire to take down this nation. Yet, O God,

Psalm 130:3 If thou, LORD, should mark iniquities, O LORD, who shall stand?

Moses went up the mountain and the people down below quickly became corrupted. They soon turned to a god of their own making. We are no better. Didn’t You tell Moses to stand aside and You would destroy them! …and raise up a new nation? BUT Moses stood between them and You…and pleaded their case. What would the other nations think if You brought them out of Egypt and then destroyed them? How would that bring You glory?

Well, this nation has been “One Nation under God”…not just any god…YOU. The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob! We bear Your Name. We are not the Nation of Israel, but we have defended her in Your Name. The entire world knows us as the Judeo-Christian nation. If You let us go down, what is the message that will go out? O God, there are many people being used by Your enemy, Satan. I ask that if they will not repent, that You take them down and not us.

Father God, You know who underwrites the DNC, Antifa, BLM, and I ask his riches, his billions, with which he buys evil here in the US, be burned up. Please stop the flow of financial support to BLM and Antifa. Please stop the flow of money to the DNC - especially in Georgia. I ask the same of the big-tech giants. They pour out millions to win the legislative seats there. Do YOU not own the whole world? You made it. It’s Yours.

Psalm 50:10 For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.

It’s all Yours. We are Yours.

Psalm 95:7 For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice,

Father, many, many are listening. We are waiting to hear Your voice. We beckon You to hear our plea. Stop the take-over of this nation. I am devastated that there are so many who do not want to hear the evidence. I am disheartened that the media is not curious. These people have constructed a black-out of Truth. …But You are light. Shine forth! Please shine forth! Speak the words over this nation, “Let there be light.” Speak loudly O God, that all may hear. Speak forth that they may know that You are God.

You say You select the leaders of a nation.

Daniel 2:21
It is He who changes the times and the epochs;
He removes kings and establishes kings;
He gives wisdom to wise men
And knowledge to men of understanding.

No one knows that better than Hilary Clinton. Please give her company …not that we may gloat, but that we may fall before You in gratitude.

So I appeal to You. Please choose President Trump once again. As this nation has been known as One Nation Under God, please come to our rescue. I appeal to You and to none other,

For the sake of His kingdom, I ask it.

Election 2020: Expose and Remove

Father, Lord of the Harvest, Holy Spirit who took Ananias and Sapphira.

O God of Truth…1 John 5:7. “For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.”

You are One and You are Truth. You are Light and in You is no darkness at all. Holy Spirit, You executed Ananias and Sapphira. It wasn’t about the money. It was about the truth.

Acts 5:3 “Why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost and keep back part of the price of the land?”

Acts 5:9 “How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord?

I come boldly on behalf of Truth and Light, which is Jesus Christ. It wasn’t about the money, it was about deception - first in secret and then in public. Is not this the same thing that has happened with this election? The lies permeate the mainstream media. They publicly proclaim lies. They have agreed together.

Father, Lord, Spirit…it started many times ago in secret. The conspiracy to undermine Truth. This has very little to do with our current President. This is about the power of deceit. Hidden agreements…just like Ananias and Sapphira. I believe You are acting against this for You are the God of Truth and Light. Thank You.

It wasn’t until Ananias and Sapphira came forward and lied before Peter and the apostles - Your chosen “light-bearers” …that You exposed the lie and removed them. I ask that You do it again. Expose the lies from the media, the DNC, the Dominion, Sequoia, and Smartmatic. These were all devised to cover Truth. I ask that You expose all cheating in the election as well. ..not just the cheating, but those who conspired together.

Holy Spirit, I appeal to You. I ask for defectors. I ask for people associated with the democratic party to come forth. This would put them in danger, and I ask Your protection upon them. You gave them a conscience…may their hearts be pricked to the core and may they not sleep until they come forth.

It was a brazen, arrogant attempt by Ananias and Sapphira to keep back the price of the land and pretend to the world that they were doing a great thing. It is no different today. The media and DNC proclaims their victory and hoists themselves as truth-bearers. They have placed themselves about You, believing they are god and that You do not know or see. They move to eliminate You and all salt and light from our society. I ask that You first expose them - as Peter asked the right questions - I ask You to intervene that these lies are exposed. And I ask second, that You take them out. Remove them. As You demonstrate in the Book of Acts, expose and remove.

You are the God who knows and sees. I ask You to act. I ask that You Expose them publicly and Remove them from their place in this nation.

I believe You placed President Trump in office to Drain the Swamp. You determine the leaders of a nation! So how can I believe otherwise? Thank You. Did You place him here to leave the disgusting sludge at the bottom in place…to rise up and take over? I beckon You to expose and remove it and those who are organizing this machine that seems unstoppable. Turn the hearts of the nation to once again desire Truth.

Wasn’t the Egyptian army, pounding towards the Israelites, unstoppable? The sea before them, the army behind them. It seemed grim. BUT GOD..our GOD, YOU…opened the sea and then drowned the army in it! …After Israel was safe. Amazing - You gathered the army together to come after the Israelites, so You could take them out in one fell swoop. I ask You do it again. May it give You great joy to again say, “That they may know that I AM GOD.”

Father, the Media, The DNC and those that support and manipulate them, think they are getting away with it! …or is this their desperate panic before they are taken down? You took Ananias and Sapphira down. You exposed the lie and You removed them. I ask it again. You are Light and Truth. I put my trust in You forever.

Hallelujah!

Election 2020: The God Who Provides

O God of our Salvation,
You provide. You are the provision. You are all we need. We look to You, O God, for You are sovereign. You are omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent. We have no need to look further, for You are ALL we need. You are the I AM. And You want that all know that You are the LORD.

I come before You with both praise and thanksgiving, for there is none like You. You are the full provision.

You provided the lamb when Abraham and Isaac climbed the mount to sacrifice. Yet, Isaac was already bound and on the altar and Abraham’s knife was raised to slay him! You provided a pathway through the Red sea when Israel fled Egypt…and the army was upon them…ready to overtake them as they crossed …on dry land! And then You drowned the enemy. …You seem to wait for the last moment before Your hand releases that which preserves, that which provides. Keep us strong as we wait solely on You alone.

Surely, You provide in all aspects of need; not just our physical need, but also those of our soul, our emotional and spiritual needs. You are truly our ALL in ALL. Please come into every aspect o four lives and the lives of this nation. Please, in Your mercy, hear the prayers of Your people.

Father God, I ask not only for this nation, the US, but for Israel, which sees the prophesies of Daniel, Isaiah, and Ezekiel at their door. You have provided for them as well. May we continue together? May the US continue to be Your provision for Your land, for Jerusalem.

Father, those that come to destroy the US are vehement, calculating, and they are laser focused on taking us down. You, who provide for both the leaders and destruction of nations, provide again at this time. Provide the pathway for these people to either have a change of heart and see that they are manipulated, used, and tricked, OR remove them.

There seems no interest in the media to see or understand the overwhelming evidence. Some will not even look. Again, O God of our Salvation: provide eyes to see, ears to hear, curiosity to know…provide a revelation to these people that they may know that You are the LORD.

You are the God who Provides. You are our provision. Rise up O God and hear our petition. You are a holy God, the God of eternal Justice and Righteousness, blessed be Your Name.

Election 2020: Time to Stand

O God my Savior: Father, Lord, and Holy Spirit,

I come to You and bow low before Your throne. Our children have been taught that socialism leading to communism as a form of government, is preferable to what You have ordained in the US Constitution. I slept while this was happening in our schools. Please forgive me.

Now those children are adults and they do not know any better. They know what they have been taught. Evil forces invaded our land, slithering quietly between our feet, entering every possible crevasse, filling every crack with lies. Thank You for waking me up. Thank You for opening my eyes to the results of my inaction.

A civl war is brewing here. I believe You are going to raise up President Trump again. It will get ugly.

Psalms 7
10 My defence is of God, which saveth the upright in heart. 11 God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.

Rise up O God as our defense. In Christ, we are upright in heart. By Your grace, we are awake and petition You for help. You who judge the righteous…remember we are in Christ. You are angry with the wicked every day - save us O God, for the wicked are daily coming after us. Every day, they bully their way into power. Their derangement seems complete…as if they have indeed sold their souls and they seem to live under a great delusion. Have mercy.

You have commanded us to be salt and light. Salt preserves and Light exposes. How can we do this and do it in love? Salt in a wound is painful We are a wounded nation. We have open wounds and Truth rubs salt directly into the situation and it is painful

To Your church - expose the wounds that we have allowed to fester. Show us the infection that is driven to permeate every part of our nation. Are we in sepsis? Has the infection grown so great that it has take over our vital organs: prayer, family, marriage, gender…Father, forgive us. For many, the heart of our nation has been wounded. For Your church, we lost our heart for the preservation of the nation. Forgive us.

You always have a remnant! There is a remnant and we are waking up! And we are petitioning You. We are humbling ourselves every day before You. We are seeking Your face. We seek Your hand. We realize this is so fare beyond what we can do, but we come believing that in You is Hope. In You is victory. We believe that the battle belongs to the Lord. You. The Great I Am.

Your church is living in open contradiction: Christian leftists, Christian socialists, Christian liberals…Jesus, I am so sorry.

Fear rages throughout the land. Many people are desperate - surely a civil war is brewing and in the next few weeks. Ephesus…people rioted there too. (Acts 19)…People had Paul arrested. Fear was rampant…AND …in v 19 Many who had believed now came forward, confessing and disclosing their deeds. 19And a number of those who had practiced magic arts brought their books and burned them in front of everyone.

Many were saved. When the synagogue wouldn’t hear him, Paul went to the non-Jews. Father, will the “never-Trump-ers” listen? Again, this is for You to do. Are there others who will listen? Help us find them and give us words o sure. Save us from moving in the flesh. Let us align ourselves with Your Word and go to battle before Your throne. Let us stand fast in the faith. As the enemy surrounds us like a roaring lion, let us lean on You remembering You will equip us as You did David when he slayed the lion who were attacking his sheep.

Satan is trying to devour us…creating instability. Help us to be sober and vigilant. The time is here…we are to stand. As this progresses, equip us to stand fast. …the whole armor - written to the Ephesians!

Father, did You covenant with America…are we endowed by You, our Creator with certain unalienable rights? The DNC is against this. They want to fundamentally change the US. Fundamentally, we do not need to change. So we need Your help. What is our stand? How do we remain loving in our claims.

Ephesians 5:14: …”Awake, you who sleep, Arise from the dead, and Christ will give you light.” Walk in wisdom.

Socialism: the government replaces the church. Abortion is from the enemy. Siding with Iran instead of Israel is counter to Your directive. So is destroying the ability of people to work for a living, protect their family… how do we stand against this in love? How can we be light? …only in Christ. Teach us to disagree and still be loving. Teach us to stand and speak.

Let us rise in loving boldness and not compromise the Truth. Let complacency fall from Your church and let us stand against compromise.

Paul to Corinth…outraged with the church…equip us to run the race to win, as You define it. Let us speak up in love, even it it insights persecution. We cannot just stand by. Let us be salt and light.

Let us boldly proclaim Truth. Not mincing words. Let us use our rights as American citizens and with the testimony of Jesus. Let us take our stand. Stand fast in the faith, strong in the Lord and with Love as the driving force.

From the sermon by Barry Stagier: Now is the Time

Election 2020: On the Brink

2 Ch 33:13
And prayed unto him: and he was intreated of him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the Lord he was God.

God of Truth, Mercy, Grace and Hope. God of justice. God who hates injustice. Who is it that has not sinned? Who is it that has not lied? Who, in the U.S. is without fault. And Your church leads the way! We have abandoned our post.

HOWEVER…we are waking up! THANK YOU, God of heaven.

IS IT TOO LATE?
How can that be? How can it be that You want all men to be saved and it is too late? Father, it was not too late for Manasseh….but he had to go into captivity before he cried out to You. This nation has sinned mightily. Your church has abandoned their post. BUT do I hear an awakening?

ON THE BRINK:
We are here on the brink of destruction…a destruction that will turn on You with all vengeance and pour hate on every person who calls You God.

We are here, on the brink … a tipping point…where millions more babies, YOUR inheritance, will be put to death…to our shame.

We are here, on the brink…where we will be threatened for the expressions of out faith in You. This is the privilege YOU give us! This is greater than the government! Father, this is bigger than the election. This is about YOU. This is an all-out attack on YOU. The Most High God!

Manasseh was a wicked, evil king. We have been a nation that tolerates wickedness, evil, murder, and suppression. You have called us to repent and I believe many, many are repenting before Your throne each day. Have mercy O God. Have mercy. This is not about flesh and blood. The Principalities and powers, the rulers of the darkness of this world, the spiritual wickedness in high places has joined together to come against this nation!

When President Obama proclaimed that we were no longer a Christian nation…it did not bring us to arms. Forgive us! Please, forgive us. The proclamation set in motion a host oc wickedness, given permission to take us down. I didn’t catch it! Wasn’t praying. I didn’t consult You to ask what to do. I didn’t even pray for his salvation, or ask You to help our nation. Forgive me. Please. Many, many of us are repenting. I am repenting.

Must we go to Babylon before we wake up? We ARE waking up. We are petitioning You. Have we waited until Babylon has come here? ARE we Babylon? We match the description. Have we fallen beyond Your reach…(O where can I go from Your Spirit…even in the depths of hell…You are there.)…I beckon You to come. Help us, Your church to separate ourselves from the sins of this nation that we may petition You for her salvation.

We have committed fornication with the wiles of the enemy. Separate us O God. We have lived “deliciously” and glorified ourselves…at YOUR expense. I writhe inside that we took what You gave us and used it to build an empire that is against you. Forgive us O God. We deserve Your judgement. Is this our hour of judgement?

O God who has borne this nation. Rise up. Please, I ask that You rise up. I ask that You hear our prayers. …like Mannaseh, we are in the brambles. We didn’t go to Babylon…we just made the nation into the Babylon of evil despicableness.

EXPOSE EVIL?
Your church is waking up. Please hear our prayers as we entreat You to have mercy. Expose the evil? What good will that do?!!! Because we are so far gone that many embrace it! Yes - evil is their good! The battle is lost here unless You will rise up. It is too great for us. You are our only hope. Have mercy O God. I cry out from deep within me - it is all I can do.

A DEEP CLEANING:
I come: Open their eyes to be disgusted with what has happened….I refer to both the church and the unbelievers! Eyes must be open to see the wickedness…BUT HEARTS must be changed to even desire to turn against it. Father, You have to do this for there is no reason in these people unless their hearts can be changed.

Yes, we have brought this on ourselves. Yes, we allowed our nation to be a harbor for wickedness, for evil, for everything that would offend You: abortion, family definition, gender reassignments, socialism, communism…the redefinition of this nation as a heathen nation that shakes our fists at the Most High God. …truly our most tragic folly. Cleanse us O God. Cleanse hearts that they may turn.

YOU ARE OUR HOPE:
I look to You. This battle belongs to YOU and YOU alone. O that we may know that You are the Lord - restore us as You did Manasseh.

I stand here - on the side of the battlefield and petition You that these, Your Words may come to pass.

Psalm 91:
7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
9 Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

Hear my petition O God.

Ephesians 4:6
One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

…I ask Your intervention…for Jesus’ sake.

Amen.

Election 2020: A great dichotomy and The God who pursues

I see a dichotomy:

We see that on the one side, people are in the midst of a great movement to overturn our government at any cost. “Do you want Vice President Biden in the White House at any cost? Does it matter if there is cheating and stealing - just so long as he gets in there?”

and on the other hand…

We see the church. Many simply do not want to go to battle. They don’t see the battle! They aren’t convinced there is one! This is a double whammy! Father - please do not count this against them! They only know the lies that the media has put before them! They do not have the truth about the election - so why would they want to enter the turmoil?

There are those who know there is more to this situation. They seem indifferent, unwilling to go to battle. Are they tired? Exhausted? Weak? It is too much bother? Forgive them. Yet Truth is Truth is Christ.

The intimidation in Wayne County, MI is a remarkable example. This is public information. The voting officials there were harassed, bullied, called names, threatened, facing a MOB on zoom - until they caved. Your people are without excuse...

…as bullying and harassment is being use to force the election…

Many in Your church say…”I just think he should concede and let’s get a smooth transition in place.”

Father, I come before You on this matter…with my comrades in arms.

We are crushed as we watch what is happening. We take heart because You are a God of Justice. I am so disappointed when I hear Your Church - (mine too!), wanting to roll over and just have it nice. When did You ask us to roll over?

They don’t need any armor because they have no intention of going to battle! Not for justice, not for righteousness, not for the murder of babies, nor the definition of marriage, nor for the youngsters who will face gender reassignment therapy, not for the right to worship and live our faith… so many want to acquiesce …to roll over and go back to bed. I am so sorry. I come to You carrying this burden of my brothers and sisters in Christ. Pastors are hiding. Many are silent.

Raise the voices of those who are willing to stand. Amplify those willing to give the battle cry! Wake up Your Army. O Jehovah Sabaoth! Rise up, raise up Your army! Awaken the armor bearers - Your pastors, and the armor wearers! Your church. Prepare for battle! Sound the alarm. The battle rages in our back yards, it permeates our homes through our televisions, our phones…every place where the media pour out their vile and disgusting lies. …and some of us are sidestepping so we don’t get our shoes dirty! Forgive us! O merciful God, forgive us. I cry out to You to align our thinking with Your Word!

Where in Your Word are we to stand down? Are we to stand for that which is right? Did You not give us the breastplate of righteousness…hard won by the blood of Christ? …do we put the armor under our beds, or in our closets? … packed away in the attic?... because this is hard? Because the battle is messy? Because family members might reject us? Because if we speak truth we will be hated? Are we cowards? Father, have mercy…I am as guilty as the next person. You have told us:

Matthew 10:16 “Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.”

How do we do this?!? I am outraged? …and I don’t know how to speak to those who are deranged. I don’t know how to encourage those who want to sit and watch the battle with their armor strewn on the ground next to their chaise lounge. Call us O God.

Did You not pursue Jonah? You did! Your love for him and Your care for the people of Nineveh - caused You to pursue and pursue and pursue - unrelentingly until he needed three days in the dark stench where he could think. Pursue us O God! Pursue this nation that has run from You. Have mercy that we not need to go into the dark stench caused by our running from the work that You have laid before us.

Pour out Your compassion on us…Your love for these people - both the intimidators and those who want to avoid the battle. Please raise up Your army! The embarrassment is beyond what I can bear. We can come before You in prayer. Surely we can do that much! The enemy hates us when we do. It bring his attacks - which is why our armor can extinguish ALL the fiery darts of the enemy.

Engage us! Entice us! Encourage us! May we LOVE the sound of the enemies darts as they fizzle before us without harming us. Encourage us to rise us up. Give those of us words that do not criticize, do not put down, but raise up. Place us before Your throne to petition You to win this battle. May we be prayer warriors! That’s how we can be harmless as doves! - before Your throne! Adamant! Unrelentingly petitioning You on behalf of our wayward brothers and sisters, and on behalf of the lost in this nation. Have mercy on them. Bring Your light to the darkness.

Does the battle really belong to the Lord? Are You there? Will You take this battle? I ask it! We can be wise as serpents by petitioning You day and night to rise up. Who defeated the Amalekites? You did! Who brought salvation to Nineveh? YOU did! Who defeated the enemy for all time on the cross? YOU did! Oh thank You God of heaven.

In the words of Jonah, I praise You and give thanks.

(From Jonah 2: 2-9) I cry to You, O God, by reason of mine affliction, and You hear my cry; Out of the belly of hell I cry ...and thou heardest my voice. You have cast us into the deep, in the midst of the seas of sin and darkness; And the floods compass us about…all thy billows and thy waves pass over us.

I say, we are cast out of thy sight; yet I will look again toward thy holy temple. Though the waters compass me about, even to the soul: though the depth closes round about us, though the weeds wrapped about our head. though we go down to the bottoms of the mountains; though the earth with her bars was about us for ever:

Yet hast thou brought up our lives from corruption, O LORD my God. though our souls faint within us, we remember the LORD: Our prayers came unto thee, into thine holy temple. They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy. But we will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving;

We will pay that that which we have vowed - be obedient to You and show our love for you through obedience. Truly salvation is of the LORD.

I come, I bring this nation and Your church here. The battle belongs to You O God. You are our salvation.

A plea for help with the U.S. wildfires.

***A plea for help with the U.S. wildfires.

  Please pray with me:

Heavenly Father,

Your Word:

Psalm 24:1
The earth is the LORD'S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

REVERENCE:
Father in heaven, all is Yours and though we try to control what is Yours, at times like this, we cannot deny that the earth is Yours. Your ways are not our ways, Your thoughts are not our thoughts.

You are the Creator of the Heavens and the earth. There is no other response but to submit to You. You are able to stop this devastation. You are able to save lives. Yet, You have chosen not to stop these wildfires from the devastation of property, livelihood, and the very lives of some.

Although I do not understand, I bow before You and I believe Your Word, that You are a God of grace and wisdom. Your mercy is everlasting.

I kneel before You and put my trust in Your eternal wisdom, which is for our good...that we may know that You are the Lord.

RESPONSE:
Eternal Father, strong to save, have mercy on us. Glory and honor belong to You alone. May our hearts rise up before Your throne of grace and mercy and may we appeal to You, the Sovereign Lord.

You know, O God, the tears from this devastation. You know the loss of personal history as homes burn to the ground. In this time of dire circumstance for so many people, teach us how to think and guide us that we not go our separate ways, or be tempted to think You don't care.

REQUESTS:
Father, there is so much at stake. I appeal to You in the midst of this disaster.

• For families that are losing so much: please take them under Your wing. You know their thoughts and their tears. Comfort them and guide their thinking with regard to priorities. May they stand strong and seek You diligently. Please protect them from anger at You
• For the Firefighters: Please place Your protection around the fire fighters. Give them strength beyond their physical ability and wisdom to know when to retreat. You alone see the bigger picture, give those who are managing the strategy an understanding and direction that will save lives.
• Bring help: Raise up Your church, the Body of Christ, to take action and help in ways that are meaningful and that make a difference. Father, may we not be passive in our support. Move us to action, not just in the present, but in the future, when rebuilding will be so hard.
• For favorable weather: Lord God of Creation, please grant favorable weather. Direct Your wind and Your rain to assist the efforts. Father, I ask for predictability of these elements so that those who play, may do so effectively. May their efforts and Yours work in tandem.
• Father have mercy on all the lives that are at stake, people, animals, pets, livestock, and the wild animals that roam freely.
• Comfort those in their loss. Uphold those who are devastated. Have mercy.
• Above all, Father, bring glory to Yourself, to Jesus Christ, and to Your Holy Spirit. As we come out of this, may we know that You are real, trustworthy, and that Your heart is always and undeniably for our good.

...so that, on this matter, we may be faithful in the day of His coming.

In the Name of Jesus Christ,

A Prayer for Tornado Victims and Communities in Iowa

***A Prayer for Tornado Victims and Communities in Iowa

  Please pray with me:

Heavenly Father,

Your Word:

Psalm 121
1 I lift up my eyes to the hills.
     From where does my help come?
2 My help comes from the Lord,
     who made heaven and earth.
3 He will not let your foot be moved;
     he who keeps you will not slumber.
4 Behold, he who keeps Israel
     will neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The Lord is your keeper;
     the Lord is your shade on your right hand.
6 The sun shall not strike you by day,
     nor the moon by night.
7 The Lord will keep you from all evil;
     he will keep your life.
8 The Lord will keep
     your going out and your coming in
     from this time forth and forevermore.

REVERENCE:
The earth is the Lord's, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. (Psalm 24:1)
You alone O God control the weather. You konw the disaster that come upon Iowa and the communities there.

You know the people who have been in terror through the tornadoes that have landed. You know the fears that each person has experienced, for those they love and for themselves. There is nothing that escapes You. Thank You.

You speak and even the weather listens; we know this from Your Word (Mark 4:35-41). You also see the devastation that has resulted from these storms. You know the loss of life, the loss of security, the loss of confidence in our ability to manage our lives.

You know, O God, out Father. Nothing escapes Your knowledge.

RESPONSE:
We see the devatsation. We see and hear the horror of people in the videos and through the weather reporting. We can only ask, "Why would a loving God allow this to happen?...since He need only speak and change the reality?"

Father, this is too much for us. Many are tempted to say; and many will say, "There cannot be a loving God who is interested in us." Yet, Your Word stands strong in times of trouble.

Isaiah 55:8
For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.

Psalm 46:1
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

Thank You that, although we do not understand, You assure us that there is purpose, there is value, and that we can trust You as we move forward. We claim your promise:

REQUESTS:
Father, I ask Your comfort upon those who have experienced this time of insecurity.

I claim Psalm 46:1 for these people who are in distress. Father, send those who can help.

May we be reminded to cling to You through this time and I ask that You build a testimony of Your care and love for those in this situation—a testimony that undeniably proclaims that You are there and Your love has not been taken away.

As these weather disasters pile up, may those who can help, not turn a deaf ear. Call them. Father, place a burden on the heart of this nation to help those who have lost so much; to come alongside.

Father, may we realize that we cannot control our world or even our lives, and may we turn to You and find hope for our future and confidence that You are able to guide us; and that You want to bless us—if we will simply invite You to do so.

Father, You are the Lord. May Your testimony come forth in many ways as people move through this time of immediate need, that they may proclaim that You are the Lord. And from this time, may rejoicing rise up and awe those around them.

Father, might these incidents be opportunity to build up the faith of those involved to know how to honorably handle the next situation.

2 Timothy 3:1
This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.

Equip us to be ready for our future. Let us walk by Your Spirit
...so that, on this matter, we may be faithful in the day of His coming.

In the Name of Jesus Christ,

How every Christian should pray for President Trump, SCOTUS, Roe v. Wade, LGBTQ, Immigration ...the prayers of my heart

Please pray with me:

Heavenly Father,

Your Word:

Matthew 7:1-3
Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

1 Timothy 2:1-2, 4
I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; ...Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

REVERENCE:
You are God. There is none like You.

Although You and Your Name have been defamed, maligned, and rejected, Your love for us has never wavered.

Even when we have taken Your Name in vain, spoken falsely of You, Your Word, and Your Son, Jesus Christ...You have been patient, gracious, and merciful.

When we redefined the foundational principles that You put in place to protect us, You have remained patient and have not unleashed Your anger and judgement on this nation.

When we instituted laws to legalize the very acts that You have defined as abominable, we, Your Church, has hidden. Yet, You have not abandoned us.

RESPONSE:
Forgive me when I have judged people in my path...exalting myself as "better than they." Forgive me. Forgive us.

Father, forgive me when I have estranged those who are different that I am and held disdain for them in my heart....for this is not Your way. Forgive me. Forgive us.

Father, this nation has indulged the physical blessings and prosperity and denied that it came from You. And then we have turned around and pampered ourselves with lavish gifts as we neglected those in need, ignored their emotional pain, and shunned them when they have called for help. Forgive me. Forgive us.

REQUESTS:
Open my eyes and fill my heart with discernment to see that every person I have judged is someone You value and died for. You love and value them as much as You love and value me.

Help me to humble myself and to seek You on this matter. I ask for ways to attend to their inner cries and emotional and spiritual sufficiency, as well as their physical needs.

Give me courage to reach out in a way that is gentle and loving. Guide me in my behavior so that I may genuinely receive them just as they are... just as You have done to me—time and time again.

Fill me with compassion, words that build trust, and the means to help in meaningful ways. Help me to replicate the love of Jesus Christ to touch these people, whom You love so deeply.

Grant me prayers for our leaders in national, state, and civic government...prayers that bless You and that cause You to help us all align to Your sovereign will.

READINESS:
Build up a courageous spirit within me to reach out. Provide opportunity to serve them as if You were here and serving them. Make me an instrument: Make me an instrument:

Prayer of St Francis
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace;
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.


O Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.
Amen.

A Prayer for President Trump... ... and the SCOTUS Confirmation Process... ...the prayers of my heart

***A Prayer for President Trump...
     ... and the SCOTUS Confirmation Process...
          ...the prayers of my heart

Please pray with me:

Heavenly Father,

Your Word:

1 Samuel 16:7
But the LORD said unto Samuel, "Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.”

John 7:24
Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

REVERENCE & RESPONSE:
You alone are God. You choose the leaders of a nation and it is beyond our understanding. May we rest in Your choices.

Your Word is living and dynamic. It never fails and it does not return void.

Isaiah 55:11
So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

May we beseech You for change in this nation—change to align our laws and our thinking with Your Holy Word. And may we trust in Your choices and in Your ultimate will that we worship You in spirit and in truth.

REQUESTS:
For residents in the United States:

• Quiet our hearts to seek Your ways and relinquish our need to control others.
• Grant us quiet time with Your Word and time to diligently seek You on this matter.
• Open the eyes of our understanding to align our hearts and minds with Your will and Your Word.
• Unite us with Your will that we may return from our own desires and seek You diligently.

For President Trump:

• Grant him the ability to see as You see.
• Grant him discernment and judgement that is from above. (James 3:17)
• Touch his heart and spirit to align with Your heart and spirit.
• Give him a desire to seek Your will and align himself with it.
• By Your Spirit, may he be judicious in hi communication.
• By Your Spirit, may he desire only Your will for the Unites States.

For the confirmation process:

• May this process have a unifying effect to those who seek Your will.
• May those involved know in their spirit what You desire and choose to be obedient.
• Grant these people civil communication in both written and spoken word.
• Quiet the powers that seek break-up of this nation as "One Nation Under God."
• Send confirmation to those who vote on the direction they are to take.

I ask all of this...so that, on this matter, the United States may seek You and that we may be faithful in the day of His coming.

In the Name of Jesus Christ,
