Prayer for July - The USA #2


In my Bible reading this evening I came across this verse, upon meditating upon it I felt it should be a prayer for our country. So to lead us again in praying for the USA this month, I ask that you join me in praying God's Word and this verse specifically over the US.

"Repent therefore and be converted,
that your sins may be blotted out,
so that times of refreshing may come
from the presence of the Lord"
Acts 3:19

grace and peace

Keep Your Eyes Open

It is a new day!

Do not remember the former things,
Nor consider the things of old.
Behold, I will do a new thing,

Now it shall spring forth;

Shall you not know it?

I will even make a road in the wilderness

And
rivers in the desert.
Isaiah 43:18-19

Prayer for July - The USA


I know I have been doing a "Pray for the Persecuted Church" each month, but this month, being that it is July, I think we should pray for America...the good old US of A!
:)

So won't you join me this month as we pray for our country.

Here are some prayer points to help guide you:

1. Pray for our leaders, from the President on down to your mayor. Pray that they would seek wisdom from the Lord that they would repent of their sins and turn to Jesus as their Savior.

2. Pray for those in law enforcement, fire department, etc. Pray that the Lord would protect them and bless them. Pray that they would also be given wisdom from above and that they too would come to know Jesus as their Savior!

3. Pray for our military! Those serving overseas and at home. Pray for their families at home. Pray that the Lord would provide for all their needs. Pray for those fighting that they they would be given strength to endure and protection. Pray for those coming home from war, that the Lord would bring healing to their hearts, minds and bodies. Pray for those reunifying with their families after serving overseas. Pray that it would be a smooth transition. Pray a special blessing upon our military that the Lord would totally bless them and their families for their service.

4. Pray for America....we need the Lord....pray for Revival upon this country like it has never seen before in our history. Pray that those who are already Christians would LIVE like Christians and would shine and be examples and witnesses to all those around them. Pray that all Christians would repent of theirs sins, actually turn from their sins, and pursue righteousness and holiness.

and pray that God would Bless America!

grace and peace,
