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!
