Our nation is made up of many individuals, most of whom trust in the Lord Jesus and walk in His Light. There are those children of disobedience that walk in darkness. The difference is evident by those who pray that God will have Mercy on us and those who do not pray and do not seek to have a relationship with the Living Resurrected Lord and Savior – Christ Jesus!

Believers know that we have sinned and need a Savior that has redeemed us from our own unrighteous acts, words, and deeds. Non-believers deceive themselves thinking they have done everything by themselves and have accomplished worldly success, fame and fortune.

Heavenly Father, we like sheep have gone astray. We have turned to doing things in our own way. We as a nation have forgotten Your Laws and Your Righteousness. We have elected representatives that think the “government” should provide all things to all people, instead of we as people seeking as our first priority the Kingdom of God. Have Mercy upon us! Pardon and Deliver us from ignoring Your Ways and Your Words! Show us how to advance Your Kingdom here on earth, just as it is in Heaven!

Lord Jesus, we need the Glory of the Lord to be revealed and illuminate this present darkness!   Amen and Amen!

The scriptural reference for Today’s Prayer Alert is  Ephesians 5:1-8

Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma. But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints; neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting {nor appropriate}, but rather we should be giving of thanks to God.

For this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the Kingdom of Christ and God. Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.

Therefore do not be partakers with them. For you were once darkness, but now you are {illuminated to see clearly the} light in the Lord. Walk as children of His Light for the fruit {that is produced by abiding in His Vine} of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth, finding out {and understanding} what is acceptable to the Lord.

Ladies and Gentlemen, do you know that you are approved by God? As the children of the Living God, we are His sons and His daughters and we are co-heirs with Christ Jesus our Lord? When this revelation knowledge gets into your heart, mind, and soul – nothing is impossible!

Jesus says, “Greater works than these that I did, you will do, because I go to the Father” What could possibly be greater than feeding 5,000 men and their families with a boy’s lunch? What could be greater than raising people from the dead, back to life? What could greater than giving sight to the bind, hearing to the deaf and having the lame walk again?

We believe that sharing the love of God and telling our personal evidence of how God miraculously forgave all my sins and how filled me with His Holy Spirit and redeemed my life with His own Blood; is a “greater thing”!

Thank You Lord for saving my soul, Thank You Lord for making me whole!

Thank You Lord for giving to me, Thy GREAT SALVATION so rich and free!

Amen and Amen!
