I urge you, first if
all, to pray for all people. Ask God to
help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them. Pray this way for kings and all who are in
authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and
dignity. 1 Timothy 2:1-2
On this 4th of July, we celebrate our freedom and
independence here in the United States of America. Too often, we take for granted the sacrifices
of the many brave men and women who have fought to defend this country and
continue to keep us safe. One of the
greatest things we can do as Christians, is to offer our prayers for this
nation.
We can pray that our nation is protected by God's might
hand. We can pray for our leaders to
discern what is good, noble, and right for our country, seeking God's wisdom in
the process. We can pray for the least, the lost, and the last to be taken care
of.
I am proud to be an American and we all must remember to
pray for this country. A nation that
collectively seeks God and worships Him will stand firm and live in peace!
