Praying for the Nation

About this book

Praying for the Nation: Lifting Our Nation Before the Throne of Grace is a prayer handbook for such a time as this.In a world filled with constant headlines, anger, division, and fear, it's easy to complain, criticize, and feel powerless. But God has given His people a different assignment: "Supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority..."- 1 Timothy 2:1-2 (NKJV)This book is not political commentary. It is a tool for intercession-a way to turn what you see and feel into Bible-based prayers that build up instead of tear down.Organized into clear, focused sections, Praying for the Nation helps you pray specifically over: Government & Leadership - President, Vice President, advisers, Congress, judges, governors, and local officials Military & Protection - Armed Forces, borders, law enforcement, first responders, and protection from organized crime and trafficking Financial Sector - The economy, businesses, workers, families, stewardship, integrity, and protection from greed and corruption Agriculture & Provision - Farmers, crops, food supply, famine, and stewardship of the land Health & Care - Doctors, nurses, hospitals, caregivers, mental health, patients, and families Education - Teachers, students, schools, universities, and the protection of truth in education Environment & Creation - Weather, natural resources, disasters, and care for the earth Media & Communication - Journalists, social media, entertainment, and truth in reporting Family & Relationships - Marriages, children, elderly, blended families, neighborhoods, careers, and more Those Who Serve the Church - Pastors, missionaries, evangelists, teachers, and lay people Personal Spiritual Growth & Other Needs - Strength in trials, inner peace, forgiveness, hope, comfort in grief, joy, love, and a call to speak life over our nation Each prayer is written in everyday language, rooted in Scripture (NKJV), and designed to be read aloud-alone, with family, or in a church or small group setting.Instead of letting the news steal your peace, let it prompt your prayers.Instead of using your words to tear down, use them to sow good seed-thirty, sixty, and a hundredfold-for your nation, your community, and your own life.Lift your voice. Lift your nation.Come boldly before the throne of grace and pray for the nation.
