7 What other nation is so great as to have their gods near them the way the LORD our God is near us whenever we pray to him? 8 And what other nation is so great as to have such righteous decrees and laws
Lord Most High~
You are a mighty and awesome God, the great King above the nations. You are greatly exalted and most worthy of praise! Thank You for this great nation. Who are we that You should choose to shed Your grace on us? What other nation is so great to have their gods near to them the way You are near to us when we pray? Thank You for giving us the freedom to pray and openly seek Your face. Thank You for using our founding fathers to build this nation on Your laws. What other nation is so great as have such righteous laws? Yet, with the freedom we have to fellowship with You, we are a nation in captivity to our own prosperity. In our liberty, we have made light of Your greatness and become greedy. Forgive us Lord for our wicked ways. Have mercy on us, O God! May we look back at ancient history and remember Your promise to bless those who are obedient and punish those who disobey. You are true to Your Word. I pray that we would turn from our wicked ways so that You will continue to bless the USA.
Thank You for the heroes who have fought to keep America free so that we can worship You, our Holy God and Mighty Fortress. Lord, today, I lift up to You the men and women who love this nation enough to lay down their life for it. They are courageous and strong. Please protect our soldiers who are fighting for our freedom today. Please let Your face shine upon their families and pour out Your blessing on them. I pray that You would bring peace to the war-torn regions of the world, and deliver our soldiers safely home.
Today, I ask that as a nation, we would be still and know that You are God. You are exalted about the nations. You rule over all the earth. You are the Lord Almighty, and You are with us because of Jesus. Amen.
Today, take time to be still before God. Thank Him for the freedom you enjoy. Pray for protection for our soldiers.
