Sustained turmoil calls for equally sustained prayer to the only true God who can affect the change that is needed…in our world, in our nation, in our communities, and in our own personal lives.  Let us pray…continually.

 

Philippians 4:6-7

6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

 

1 Timothy 2:1-4

1 I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone– 2 for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. 3 This is good, and pleases God our Savior, 4 who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.

1 Thessalonians 5:17

Pray without ceasing.

 

“If the church today took the time and energy it spends on political maneuvering and lobbying and poured them into intercessory prayer, we might see a profound impact on our nation. We have all too often forgotten that ‘the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses’ (2 Cor. 10:4). The key to changing a nation is the salvation of sinners, and that calls for faithful prayer.” ~ John MacArthur

 

The Lord bless you and keep you…
