These instructions are not empty words—they are your life! By obeying them you will enjoy a long life in the land you will occupy when you cross the Jordan River.”

Reading: Luke 7:1-7 (NLT)

When Jesus had finished saying all this to the people, he returned to Capernaum. At that time the highly valued slave of a Roman officer was sick and near death. When the officer heard about Jesus, he sent some respected Jewish elders to ask him to come and heal his slave. So they earnestly begged Jesus to help the man. “If anyone deserves your help, he does,” they said, “for he loves the Jewish people and even built a synagogue for us.”

So Jesus went with them. But just before they arrived at the house, the officer sent some friends to say, “Lord, don’t trouble yourself by coming to my home, for I am not worthy of such an honor. I am not even worthy to come and meet you. Just say the word from where you are, and my servant will be healed.

Prayer for Discernment:

Sovereign God:

You alone hold the fate of America and its people in Your hand.

Hear my payer as I come before Your throne of grace on behalf of America and American believers – deliver us from evil and give us common sense and discernment when we vote for the next President of the United States.

+Deliver us from wicked people and policies – from lies, deceit, and corruption endemic to our government that are destroying America from within.

+ Deliver us from passivity in the face of the evil of abortion – the slaughter of millions of babies for personal convenience.

+ Deliver us from apathy and naiveté regarding the Supreme Court and the effect the next appointments of Supreme Court Justices will have on the future of America.

+ Deliver us from gullibility that makes moments of private vulgarity morally equivalent with a lifetime of public deceit and corruption.

Sovereign God:

You hold the future of America in Your hand. What will it be – redemption or judgement?

+ Raise up a mighty army of courageous believers who will choose redemption over judgement on November 8th.

+ Raise up a mighty army of courageous believers who will choose freedom over tyranny on November 8th.

+ Raise up a mighty army of courageous believers who will set aside false sensibilities and hurt feelings to stand in the gap against real, not imagined, evil on November 8th.

Sovereign God: Grab us and shake some common sense into us that every believer may vote, en masse, to stay Your hand of judgement – that a season of refreshment and rejoicing may come in America.
__________

+ In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit – one God forever. Amen.
