 40 Days to Save America

 

Day 29

Father G-d, we pray for Your hand to be upon the healing and restoration of marriage and marriages in America. We ask You to quicken us to the importance of marriage as You defined it. We ask You to lead husbands and wives in how best to love one another.

We pray that the union of one man and one woman will be embraced by all societies as the sole form of legitimate marriage and the proper basis of family.

We ask that the power of Your hand intervene to transform and heal the hearts of those who would attempt to re-define marriage. In Yeshua’s' name, Amen.

Prayer for Leaders

"The king's heart is in the hand of the L-rd; He directs it like a watercourse wherever He pleases."  Proverbs 21:1

L-rd G-d, we ask for Your blessing on the lives of these leaders in our nation:

President Barack Obama	U.S. Representative Collin C. Peterson
Vice President Joe Biden	U.S. Representative Thomas E. Petri
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton	U.S. Representative Pedro R. Pierluisi
Attorney General Eric Holder	U.S. Representative Chellie Pingree
Chief Justice John Roberts	U.S. Representative Joseph R. Pitts
Justice Samuel Alito	U.S. Representative Todd Russell Platts
Justice Anthony Kennedy	U.S. Representative Ted Poe
Justice Elena Kagan	U.S. Representative Jared Polis

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg	U.S. Representative Bill Posey
Justice Stephen Breyer	U.S. Representative David E. Price
Justice Antonin Scalia	U.S. Senator Rand Paul

We ask that You turn their hearts towards You, L-rd. We ask that You soften their hearts, L-rd, to recognize and receive truth. L-rd, we ask that You grant them the understanding and knowledge that come from the fear of You. We ask that You grant them wisdom and discernment, L-rd, and that You make them bold to do what is right in Your sight. L-rd, we ask that You direct their hearts to do Your will. In Yeshua’s' name, Amen.
