Memorial Day - 5/25/09

Today we celebrate Memorial Day in the United States of America for the individuals who gave and are giving their lives for us.

My prayer for them . .

Father, I pray, in the Name of the Lord Jesus, for our president, the vice president, all the Cabinet and the chief justice and associate justices of the Supreme Court to receive the wisdom of God, to act in obedience to that wisdom and for the power of God to flow in their lives.

I pray for the members of the Senate and the House of Representatives to find Your peace and direction, and for these men and women to act and lead according to Your Word. A house divided against itself cannot stand, therefore, I pray for them to be unified in righteousness for the sake of the nation.

We are still a nation that honors and respect Your Name. We are yet a free people who worship You in truth and spirit. We are a people of faith and we are not moved by the odds against us. We will continue to fight the good fight of faith and praise You while we do it.

We are free and our trust is in You Father. You have preserved us as a nation and will continue to do so. We will always triumph! We are the land of the free and the home of the brave!

I especially pray for Your protection to cover all our law enforcement officers and the men and women of the military. I pray that You and Your kingdom of righteousness be manifested in the hearts of all those who are in authority in any way.

Thank You, Father, for hearing my prayers that are in accordance to Your will. Amen.

Much love,
Joseph
