 Father God,

Sabers rattle, Mt Etna is awake again, violent crimes are being reported around the world. Civility seems to be on the decline, but we know One sure thing - You are the Lord God Almighty, You are Sovereign and cannot be shaken from Your throne.
Our foundation is built on Jesus Christ not sand, we have been declared righteous by faith, we have peace with You throught our Lord Jesus Christ. We have also obtained access through Him by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in the hope of the glory of You, Lord God.
We lift up people who struggle with fear and those who are afraid of the events taking place in the world. We ask You to comfort them and remind them You are with them always. Your perfect love casts out fear.
We lift up people in war zones, we ask You to physically protect them and heal any and all mental trauma caused by their situation.
We pray for diplomacy to work and between Russia and Ukraine, we pray You pour our Your wisdom on the leaders involved.
Lord God, we thank You for the gift of Your Son and the Holy Spirit. Help us dig into Scripture today and every day and stand firm, filled with Your peace, walking in Your love, dying to self.
In Jesus' Name we pray. Amen

 Good morning, Lord Jesus. King of Kings and Lord of Lords, be exalted on high, here in my heart and every moment of my day.

Holy, Holy, Holy are You, Lord God Almighty, Who was and is and is to come.
Father God,
You are holy and to be revered. We praise You and exalt You. We worship You. We know nothing is impossible for You and we can boldly approach You and ask for seeminly impossible things.
We lift up the people of Mexico who are caught in the middle of cartel turf wars. We ask You to protect them from all harm. We lift up the military who is mine sweeping on the roads in cartel territory, please keep them safe and give them the skills they need as they work under intense pressure.
We ask You to raise up people of integrity to govern Mexico. We ask You to dismantle the cartels, we pray for You to thwart their every move, we pray the money no longer flows and all their criminal endeavors fail.
We pray for schools to be safe to attend and the students will learn. We ask You to raise up great caring teachers throughout the country.
WWe pray the natural resources of Mexico - the oil, minerals, good farm land benefit the citizens and do not simply line the pockets of corrupt people.
Please shut the coyotes downs, please end the human and drug traffiking.
We pray for he church to rise up and be a place of healing, a place of prayer vigils, a place of outreach, a place of miracles.
We pray in the mighty Name of Jesus. Amen

 Good morning Lord Jesus. I pray Your Name is exalted today and not used in vain. I want my heart to be centered on You, I want my words to reflect You, to be encouraging, to be true, and to be few.

Lord of Mercy, God of Grace, hear us as we pray. You have promised when Your people, who call ourselves by Your name would set aside our pride and self-righteousness and pray, seeking You not men to solve our problems, turning from our sin, heaven will move. Sin would be forgiven. Hearts would be changed. And You will bless our land.
We confess to You our dependence on self, on the government, on anything and everything but You. We pray for forgiveness as we have ignored the plight of many who are unjustly incarcerated, who are mentally ill, who are far below the poverty line. You require us to care for the widows, the orphans, the least of these. We also ask forgiveness for __________________________________________ (name national sins the Holy Spirit lays on your heart.)
We ask You to cleanse us by the blood of Your precious Son our Savior. Please hear our prayer. Forgive our sin. Heal our land. We pray for the the glory of Your Name in the Name of Jesus. Amen

Good morning Lord Jesus. You are the Alpha and Omega, the Lamb Who was slain before for the foundation of the world. Please reveal Yourself to the lost around the world who have never heard You died to save them, heal them, and deliver them so they can live victoriously in You.

Father God,

We read Your holy Word which alive and active and sharper than a double edged sword. Please help us apply it to our daily life - our thinking, our words, times in which we are to hold our tongue. We want Your Word to penetrate every fiber of our being.

If we are blinded in anyway, remove the scales from our eyes, if we are spiritually deaf, open our ears, if our hearts have turned to stone please replace them with a heart of flesh that beats for You.

Jesus said “I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser. Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit. Already you are clean because of the word that I have spoken to you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. If anyone does not abide in me he is thrown away like a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned. If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples. As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Abide in my love. If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love.

We want to keep Your commandments and abide in Your love, producing good fruit. We want to hear Your voice when we need to make changes, when we need to confess our sins and repent so a pruning is not required. We want to flourish in our lives living for You.

Glory be to You - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Your glory is beyond compare.

We pray for Your glory in the Name of Jesus.

Amen
