Pray for America Group

 

Please Forgive us Dear Lord

 

Holy Father, in a world where

so many are hungry,
You have given us food in abundance;

In a world where so many are hurting,
You offer to bind up our wounds;

In a world where so many are lonely,
You offer friendship to every heart;

In a world longing for peace,
You offer hope.

Yet, we are so stubborn and resistant.
Have mercy upon us, Lord.

Our nation is at a crossroads this year;
we look to you to be our strength and shield.

Please give us the guidance to elect one who will honor you
and to respond to the wisdom from above
so that our hope may be renewed and our blessings be treasured.

In Jesus name.

 

In the Spirit of the Above Prayer

On the 2nd and 4th Sunday of every month prayer requests for

our nation will be prayed for by a group of members at our church in Illinois. We are praying for our leaders and events occuring in our country that you may, or may not know about. You are invited to join us in spirit from 5:30 to 6:30 PM on these Sunday evenings.

I will keep posting our prayer list so you will be on the same page. These are the things we pray for, but not limited to just these items.

If you have any pray for america requests please post them here.

Praise be to God!

 

For in the midst of the cold and flu season there is much complication from viruses hitting America.  Special thanks is duly given for those of us in good health.

Pray for people to make the Values Voter Pledge

Dr. James Dobson and Focus on the Family Action are seeking to engage 1 million citizens to take the Values Voter Pledge. The Values Voter Pledge is a statement by citizens across the nation who are committing to vote only for candidates who uphold the highest pro-life, pro-faith and pro-family principles.

Pray for hearts to be changed in Berkeley

The outrage continues to build against the City of Berkeley, California – and so does the momentum regarding legislation on Capitol Hill – important legislation that’s moving forward thanks to some key legislators, and the support of many Christians.

Pray for Sexual Abstinence Education

Today, people are faced with a raging plague of sex related problems. Pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases and rape statistics are at all-time highs. Even so, today's society encourages sexual activity, and young people must have a compelling reason to commit to sexual abstinence.

 

Pray Against Violence and Death

 

Pray for the members of the community of Northern Illinois University as they continue the grieving and recovery process under

God's loving hand.

As a recent spate of school shootings has pointed to increasing violence in our schools, pray against violence and death, asking God to invade our nation’s schools, colleges and universities at every level with a spirit of His peace and love. Pray that those who would commit violence against students will get help and will have their troubles dealt with in appropriate ways

 

Pray for Revival and Repentance in America

 

Pray for revival and repentance in America, that our nation may be returned to God, seeking His will and His ways, particularly as we look to the fall and presidential elections.

 

 Pray for President and Mrs. Bush on their Africa Trip

 

Pray for President and Mrs. Bush as they continue their Africa trip through February 21.  Pray for God’s powerful protection for them and for all who accompany them on this important trip to Benin, Tanzania, Rwanda, Ghana and Liberia. In addition to reviewing firsthand the progress since his last visit in 2003,

 

 

Pray for Tornado Victims

 

Please pray for the people of Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Mississippi and Tennessee, as deadly tornados have brought the people of these southern states tragedy.

 

Pray for Rev. Billy Graham

 

Pray for Rev. Billy Graham as he recovers from an elective procedure to repair the valve of the shunt in his brain.  Implanted in 2000, the device relieves pressure created by the buildup of fluid on the brain.  Pray for Rev. Graham as he recovers at Missions Hospital in Montreat, NC.

 

 

Pray that God will Protect Our

Church Freedoms

 

The ability of churches to define their own doctrine, determine their own leadership and set their own mission policies should be free of government interference.  The courts must continue to note, as the Supreme Court has held, that “decisions by the governing bodies of religious organizations on matters related to doctrine, faith, or church governance and discipline are not reviewable by civil courts.”  This area of law is known as the “ecclesiastical abstention doctrine” and it “prohibits secular courts from predetermining the correctness of a decision by a religious tribunal on issues of canon law, religious doctrine, or church governance.

 

Pray for Our Troups (This can never be said enough) 

Give thanks for the members of our military who serve with dedication and faithfulness, dealing with difficulty and danger night and day.  Pray for their encouragement and their protection under God’s mighty wings of care.
