YHWH, hear the prayers of our nation's leaders.
Create in each one of them (and of course, in ME first) a clean heart, oh LORD, and renew a right spirit within them.
We need you NOW, oh LORD, more than any time in our nation's history.
Save us, Jehovah Hoshe'ha!
Deliver us, Jehovah Mephalti!
Redeem us, Jehovah Go'el!
We cannot do this without your presence here with us, Jehovah Shammah
Remember us, Jehovah Ha Melek (our King)!
Are you feeling the crushing weight of the world's agonizing situation these days? Wars and rumors of wars pose a critical threat from one end of the globe to the other. From missiles to suicide drone attacks, the skies are darkening in bloody rage, and there is absolutely nothing that the majority of us can do about it.
Or is there?
We can PRAY!
Yes! Pray! We can disappear into our prayer closets within the deepest parts of our souls and plead our petitions before the throne of Grace. We can fight this spiritual battle with the weapon of fervent prayer, rather than anger and hatred.
I have invited this special 'Prayer' section into our little hollow to encourage each of us to remember the power and comfort that prayer offers, in times of distress as well as praise. I will be posting prayers from brothers and sisters in Christ who have learned that bruised and chafed knees are the marks of a disciplined spirit who understands that the spiritual world is indeed our reality. This understanding should urge all of us to reckon that we must war from our spiritual reality if we desire our present status to change.
I pray that each one of you find respite in your prayer closets, and joy in your Salvation!
