It seems to be fairly obvious that politicians on both sides of the isle in Washington keep finding ways to blame each other for the problems we face in America today. Their “actions” behind closed doors speak so much more than do their words and broken promises as recorded by the news media. Some of these elected representatives have an arrogant contempt for the very people that trusted them to do the “right” thing.

Heavenly Father, we pray for those who are in positions of authority as You instructed us to do through the writings of the apostle Paul. (1Timothy 2:1-8)

Our prayer continues to be that their hearts and minds would turn toward You Dear Lord. IMPROVE them or REMOVE them from their positions in the Judicial, Legislative and Executive branches of our government. We ask that You would raise up good and honorable men and women to run for public office at the state and national levels of government so that we may continue to be ONE NATION under God with Liberty and Justice for all.  Amen and Amen!

The scriptural reference for Today’s Prayer Alert is     Matthew 15:7-11

Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy ( Isaiah 29:13-16) about you, saying:

These people draw near to Me with their mouth, and they may honor Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me. In vain they worship Me, they are teaching as doctrines the commandments of men. When He had called the multitude who were standing in the temple court yard to Himself, He said to them, "Hear and understand:

IT IS NOT what goes into the mouth that defiles a man; but what comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man."

 

Ladies and Gentlemen we have the power and the authority of prayer! When we get into agreement and ask what is according to the Divine Purpose of Almighty God – IT SHALL BE DONE!

God’s Word is TRUE! We have an everlasting covenant with our Lord Christ Jesus!

If My People, who are called by My Name will humble themselves, and PRAY and seek My Face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will Hear their prayers from Heaven, and I will FORGIVE their sins and HEAL THEIR LAND! 

Now My Eyes will be open {I will see your actions} and My Ears attentive to PRAYER that are made in this place {temple, sanctuary, church, group meeting}. For now I have chosen and sanctified this house of worship, that My Name may be there FOREVER; and My Eyes and My Heart will be their perpetually.

We have all of Heaven’s undivided attention when WE PRAY!

Prayer must be our FIRST response and not our last resort on any matter! 

Amen and Amen!
