Back to Prayers

'Every governor who had come before me had exploited his authority and levied a stiff tax—a pound of silver a day—and taken food and wine to supply his own table, often using unmerciful servants to extract this payment. But my fear of the True God kept me from ever acting in the same way.' Nehemiah 5:15 (VOICE)

I am to pray for our leaders in government. I am to pray for God-fearing men to lead me. I am to pray for the oppression of over-taxation to cease. I am to pray for men and women to use their power and authority to do good and not to bring evil upon their people in order to enrich themselves. 

On June 2 our religious leaders are calling for us all to pray for our President. We are to pray for God to intervene and to protect, strengthen, encourage and guide our President. We are to pray for hearts to soften and minds to change. 

The Bible instructs us to pray for those in authority so that we all might live quiet and peaceful lives in all godliness and reverence. These are not the times that we currently live in and yet it was the vision of our Founding Fathers. We witness the enemies of the President attempt to destroy him, his family and his presidency on a daily basis. We see much hatred and anger acted out toward our great nation by many who seem to have lost the vision of freedom and liberty. God really is our only hope.

We place our hope in You, God and we pray. Why not ask You, Lord, for the blessings that we know that You want to give us. Even if we have neglected to seek You when we should, today is the day we humbly decide to go back to You and back to prayers. Nothing is impossible with You, God. You matter to us. Prayers work. Prayers are effective. You hear us when we cry out to You for; less financial burdens to bear. less national debt, less crisis in government leadership, less fighting, more financial freedoms, more unity, more godliness, more peace. We pray for an awakening. We pray for revival. It starts today. Image may contain: one or more people, sky, cloud, ocean, twilight, text and outdoor

Called Forth to Life

'When I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead man. He placed his right hand on me and said, “Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last—  the Living One. I was dead and, see, I am alive forever and ever! I also hold the keys of death and hell .' Revelation 1:17-18 (EHV) Dear Father.  Because of You and who You are I do not fear. You are Divine. You are Eternal. You are God. You were here before the world began and will be here at the end. Thank You, Father, for sending Your Son Jesus Christ, the Living One, to die for me. I recognized that I was a sinner and I made Jesus Lord of my life. Though You suffered and died, I know that Jesus lives and that He is my life source. Without Him I am nothing. He has complete authority. He has the power over life and death. He controls not only when I die but where I will go after I die as well.You comfort me with Your Word.  Let me be forever grateful and obey Your Word and live my life for Him. Jesus, You alone hav

Sending Out Invitations to the Concert

'We are confident that God is able to orchestrate everything to work toward something good and beautiful when we love Him and accept His invitation to live according to His plan. ' Romans 8:28 (VOICE) One example of God's love can be seen in the book of Esther. Lessons from the Bible can reassure us of God's love for us and they show us that His ways are good and so much higher than our own. How powerful. In Chapter three, the evil ideas of Haman, to have all the Jews exterminated, had been decreed by the king, and the money set aside in an account for the diabolical deeds and the date was set on the calendar for the bloodshed! That part is so incredible, that one man was given that much power. Just imagine it if you were a Jew. The date for the destruction of your entire race was set and the preparations to follow through with it were being made. Thankfully, our God is greater. Our God is able. He is able to confuse the bad plans of men in power. O

To the 7th Degree

  ' Then Nebuchadnezzar was furious with Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, and his attitude toward them changed. He ordered the furnace heated seven times hotter than usual' Daniel 3:19 (NIV) To the leaders that are unprepared for the likes of young people full of passion. For the wicked rulers who demand men to bow a knee to them, and worship them like gods. To the world that has lost its way and punishes the faithful to the extreme, even death. We pray for thee. Let the world know that we worship no one but the One True God. Amen. Dear Father We pray for evil leaders that desire to turn their nation into evil. We lift up righteousness and righteous leaders, we lift You up. You are the One True God in whom we serve. You are the Holy God in whom we believe. You provide the God-fearing leaders that we need when we need them. We pray for those leaders. We pray for more people with courage to refuse to bow the knee to mere man. Even when we live in times when there seem
