Let’s pray for our country 7-2-14        http://anticorruptionact.org/

 Father, we thank you for all your blessings, Help us to bring hope to countless that slip into eternity, they don’t know that you died to rescue them from their sin and that without you they are lost.

Father give us the wisdom to do your will, help us to see the injustice and stand up for those social issues that best reflect the gospel, and not what best reflect the political party that gives these issues the attention to gain political power but neglected their attention to other areas of importance. We Christians are first and foremost citizens of heaven, not members of a political party. When we identify ethical issues with politics more than we do with Jesus, we lose who we are in Christ. The Bible says to be kind to aliens in the land (Leviticus 19:33-34). This directive is to all Christ-followers. If a believer finds value in a particular political party, he or she should do what they can to encourage that party to promote biblical justice in all areas that matter to Christ, not issues that matter only to the elite political force of our country. Father, help us to reach them with the Gospel and bring them hope of peace and prosperity. We must help them to seek and find you in all that they do, as you are our only hope, o God of our salvation, bring them hope to end the pain of sin. Lord, by the power of your grace, help us to be our brother’s keeper and fills our hearts with lasting joy. This we ask in the name of your beloved son Jesus Amen.
