Today we are praying for our country and for ourselves

Heavenly Father, we ask of You today to replace the government that does us no good, with the people who has fear of God in them and the people that can value the lives of human beings. Those that will realize that man was created in your image and we have no right to destroy what God created in His own image. Please Our Father God let the killings and kidnapping stopped all over our country. In Jesus name. Amen

Today we are praying for our country and for ourselves. We pray to relieve our anxieties about the future; we pray because it reminds us how much God cares for us; we pray because our heavenly Father holds all power in His mighty and loving hands.

Father, help us during this anxious time to be still and know that You are God. You will be honored by every nation. You will be honored throughout the world. Remind us that You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in You. Keep us steadfast, Father, Help us to trust in You. (Psalm 46:10, Isaiah 26:3)

May we say, as individuals and as a nation: “Our soul waits for the Lord; He is our help and shield. For our hearts shall rejoice in Him, because we have trusted in His holy name. Let Your mercy, O Lord, be upon us, just as we hope in You.” (Psalm 33:20-22)

You, and You alone, Lord, control the course of world events. You remove kings and set up other kings. Praise be to Your name for ever and ever; Wisdom and power are Yours. You change times and seasons; You depose kings and raise up others. You give wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning. You reveal deep and hidden things; You know what lies in the darkness, and Light dwells with You.  We thank and praise You, God… (Daniel 2:20-23)

Oh God, You bring death and You bring life,
You bring down to the grave and raise us up.
You bring poverty and You bring wealth;
You lower, You also lift up.
You put poor people on their feet again;
You rekindle burned-out lives with fresh hope,
Restoring dignity and respect to their lives- a place in the sun!
For the very structures of earth are Yours
You have laid out Your operations on a firm foundation.
You protectively care for Your faithful friends, step by step,
But leave the wicked to stumble in the dark.
Your enemies will be blasted out of the sky,
Crashed in a heap and burned.
You will set things right all over the earth,
You’ll give strength to Your King,
You’ll set Your anointed on top of the world! (1 Samuel 2:7-10)
