Be Strong in the Lord

Be strong in the Lord, and be of good courage;
Your mighty Defender is always the same.
Mount up with wings, as the eagle ascending;
Victory is sure when you call on His name.

So put on the armour the Lord has provided;
And place your defense in His unfailing care.
Trust Him for He will be with you in battle,
Lighting your path to avoid every snare.

Be strong in the Lord,and be of good courage;
Your mighty Commander will vanquish the foe.
Fear not the battle, for the victory is always His;
He will protect you where ever you go.

Be strong, be strong, be strong in the Lord;
And be of good courage, for Hi is your guide.
Be strong, be strong be strong in the Lord;
And rejoice, for the victory is yours.
by Linda Lee Johnson 1947-

Give them the courage that they need and Lord, we will thank you for what ever happens on Tuesday. Thank you for being our guide through this election. I am glad that we can lean on you and trust in your unfailing love.
I pray in the name of Jesus
Amen

You answered again Thank you

Over and over again we have asked God to reveal the Truth concerning this election and God has been so faithful in bringing out the truth in so many unusual ways. He has used men to speak out on the rope lines like Joe and Tito.

Lord, I thank you for these men who have had the boldness to ask questions and speak out. Lord I know that there have been many more that we do not know about and I thank you for them as well.

Thank you for answering the prayers that were prayed on Thursday, October 23, 2008 titled “Let the Truth be heard” and on Wednesday, October 15, 2008 “Let Freedom RING” on that day we asked for You to
“Bind up the lies and show them to our nation. Let people hear the truth and understand it as truth.”


Lord continue to bring out the truth. Let is be spoken freely and unhampered. Let the truth be broadcasted through out the world. I ask that truth about the election is not only spoken, but the Truth about You, my Father is proclaimed loud and clear.
Thank you for hearing our prayers and granting us mercy.
I thank you in the name of my savior Jesus Christ
Amen

Unify the Camp

My Father,My Lord,
I pray for Sarah today, I see that there is trouble in the camp. Lord, I pray that you will remove those who wish to harm her and her ability to lead. I pray that those who work under her as her support will work well as a team with one goal. Lord, remove anyone who is seeking glory or self-recognition.

Lord, I continue to pray for godly counsel to come around Sarah and help her make the right decisions for the day and days to come. Lord, I pray that she will listen to You as you speak with her through the day. Give her time to run, and read the Word. Give her private time with Todd and the family. Help her to regain strength, and peace.

Let there be no more conflict between people who are in the McCain campaign. Lord, let forgiveness be given and received, let words of healing be spoken and for those who want to harm lead them to leave. Keep Sarah’s heart tender, gracious and strong.
In Jesus Name
Amen

Let the righteous influence today

Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers. But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.
Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish. Psalms 1 NIV

My Father,
Please bless those who delight in your law, plant them as trees by a stream of water and let them yield fruit in season. Lord, I pray this is the season for fruit to grow and ripen. Lord, I know it takes time for trees to grow and become fruit bearing.

Lord, I have seen Sarah as one to rely on You for her wisdom and strength. I have seen her look to you for her direction and you have directed her path. Lord, I pray this is the time for the wicked to be like the chaff that the wind blows away. Lord, I know that this election has been a spiritual battle. I pray that you will watch over the way of the righteous and remove those who are wicked.

Lord, the influence of evil is strong in our culture. Lord, I pray that as believers we are able to win our culture for you. I pray that good will be our heart’s desire. I pray that our culture will once again see Your right and see wrong as You see wrong. Lord, convict our land. I pray that we will confess our sins and delight in the law of the Lord. I pray that we will meditate day and night on Your words.

Allow the righteous influence today on the direction of this nation. Let your Truth be heard and believed today.

Give Sarah and Senator McCain the boldness and the strength that they need for this day. I pray for the whole staff, make this a productive day, one with eternal value for our nation.
I pray in the Word that became flesh, my Jesus.
Amen

Be Thou My Vision

Be Thou My Vision
Words by Mary E. Byrne 1880-1931

Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me save that thou art:
Thou my best thought by day or by night,
Walking or sleeping thy presence my light.

Be Thou my wisdom, and thou my true word;
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord:
Thou my great Father, I Thy true Son,
Thou in me dwelling, and I with thee one.


Not that we are competent in ourselves to claim anything for ourselves, but our competence comes from God. 2 Corinthians 3:5 NIV

My great Father,
I pray that Thine will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Thank you for giving us a beautiful day. The sun shines for your glory. I praise you for you are a mighty God. Thank you for being with me and giving me the wisdom I need. Thank you ,Holy Spirit for praying for me yesterday.

Thank you for part of the Palin family being together yesterday. Thank you for their spirit of gratefulness they share with the country. Lord, I pray that today you will be Sarah and Todd’s vision. Let them know that you are in control. Let them see your hand at work in their lives and the lives of those around them. I am grateful that they have given you an important place in their lives.

Thank you for the wonderful hymn Be Thou my Vision. Today the words have blessed my soul. Thank you for letting us rely on you for our completeness. I love you Father and I pray that Your will be done on this day.
I pray in Jesus Name
Amen

The Good will prevail

In the last few days listening and reading about this elections I sense this overwhelming force of evil that would love to dominate our lives. But I know that my God, My Father, My Savior, My Jesus, My Redeemer has already overcome the evil. I realize this battle is not flesh and blood but of principalities.

Paul reminds us that in
Romans 8:22a An we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him.....
Romans 8:37
No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us
Romans 15;13
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

God's plan will still happen in November. Our hope is in Him.

Lord, I pray that the good that is in this world will prevail. Take away this fear that we can not overcome the evil and wrong doing, the lies, the hate in this world, because we know that in you they are already conquered. Thank you for being the good in this world. Let us be used by you to speak truth, love encouraging words. Let us help those who are hurting and discouraged. Let us lift up those who are down and Lord, let us treat each on as they were you. I love you and I needed the hope only you have to give.

Remind Sarah and Todd and the kids Lord of the Hope You can bring and offer to this world. Let them be filled with all joy and peace as they trust in You. So that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
In the Name of Jesus my Savior
Amen
