"When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice;
But when a wicked man rules, the people groan." Proverbs 29:2 (NKJV)
We pray for our nation tonight. We have to as Christians make sure that change is for good and not evil. Samuel Adams wrote:
"Let each citizen remember at the moment he is offering his vote that he is not making a present or a compliment to please an individual...he is executing one of the most solemn trusts in human society for which he is accountable to God and his country."
Remember that prayer is IMPORTANT(!), we must also put action in way of our votes and involvement in our government. Your involvement is as simple as giving someone a ride to the polls, sharing with friends what a certain candidate believes in regards to a issue. Most importantly KEEP PRAYING for this nation and listening to what the Holy Spirit is telling you. Tonight pray in the spirit specifically for the direction this country is crying for, the direction needed to return to Him!
Love and Blessings!
Although we should appreciate and take hold of the abundant provision God gives us, we must always remember the provision is not the point.
Our purpose here on the earth is not to just enjoy God's blessings. Our purpose is to fulfill the mission Jesus has given us as His ambassadors. Our purpose is to penetrate the darkness and bring people His light.
The only way for us to successfully do that is by staying in constant contact with Him.
Take time to spend with Him pray in the Spirit, and take the time to really listen to Him. The purpose He has for each individual in the Body is amazing to say the least! Just praise Him and see what unfolds!
" Praise the Lord!
Praise God in his sanctuary;
praise him in his mighty heaven!
Praise him for his mighty works;
praise his unequaled greatness!
Praise him with a blast of the ram’s horn;
praise him with the lyre and harp!
Praise him with the tambourine and dancing;
praise him with strings and flutes!
Praise him with a clash of cymbals;
praise him with loud clanging cymbals.
Let everything that breathes sing praises to the Lord!
Praise the Lord!" Psalm 150 (New Living Translation)
Love and Blessings!
Pray for All Men
"Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, 2 for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. 3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, 4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. 5 For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, 6 who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time, 7 for which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle—I am speaking the truth in Christ[a]and not lying—a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth."
1 Timothy 2:4-7
I love these verses and the prayer they hold within, the lifting up of those in authority, that all men be saved and walk in peace whether Gentile or Jew.
We are entering into a time of change in government, this is a year of election and change here in the US. Think of the alignment God has in store for America! Stay focused, stay in prayer! When you don't know the words remember 1 Timothy 2:1-7 and praying in the Spirit. Stay with it remember as pray-ers you are the front lines going forth!
Love and Blessings!
Remember always praying, 1 Timothy 2:1-7, for our governmental leadership here in America. That all will be well domestically, and abroad. We have entered a time of change let our prayers for a turning back to God be spoken out that they may happen now. No longer question what happened to this country in the past tense, but pray for the glory this nation is returning to. God chose us to be Americans for this day and time, take your placement seriously. Be one who chooses to raise up our leaders, prays for the people, blesses the children growing up today. Speak it out, the positive, we are a nation that prospers, a nation that places value on our children and a nation that stands with Israel. A nation that honors it's military men and women. That believes first and foremost that while we have a president here in the natural we have one King, Our Lord Jesus Christ that we as a nation and people honor above all else.
Love and Blessings!
"When I think of all this, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father,[a] the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth.[b] I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.
Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen."
Ephesians 3:14-21
