40 Days of Prayer for Our Nation: Day Fifteen 10/08/2020

COMPASSIONATE CARE FOR ORPHANS, WIDOWS, THE POOR & OPPRESSED:

SCRIPTURES: James 1:27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. 1 John 3:17 But whoso hath this world’s good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?
Psalms 82:3-4 Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy. [4] Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked.

PRAYER: LORD, we pray for the poor, the widows, the orphans and the oppressed. We know that You care for them and that we here on earth are Your voice and hands to help them. Fill us with hearts of mercy, love and compassion to motivate us to reach out to help and to heal.

We pray also for an increase to the work this nation does at home and around the world to help the poor, the vulnerable, the neglected, the sick, the suffering, and the oppressed, through its various governmental aid programs, it’s non-governmental aid programs and Christian missionary aid programs. LORD, bless and enlarge these compassionate works.

Touch the hearts of those with means to give to causes which help the suffering in our nation and around the world. In Jesus’ Name, AMEN!

PRAYER FOR THE PRESIDENT OF THE USA: LORD, please touch President Donald Trump, his wife Melania and all those in his inner circle impacted by the COVID19 disease. Touch their bodies and bring them to health. Give wisdom, skill and discretion to the physicians attending to him. Open the president’s heart and the hearts of his family and the presidential circle to receive the full salvation of Christ in truth. Give him the wisdom and motivation to use his words and actions to bring healing to our nation, In the Name of Jesus, AMEN!

About Pastor Lawrence A. Fox

We believe that along with many others, we are called by Jesus Christ to engage in a world-wide effort to reach those in and out of the Christian world with the message of full salvation and healing in His name. This effort starts in our own hearts through the power of the ministry of the Holy Spirit. It then finds growth and nourishment in the fellowship of the local church and fans out through every believer’s home, in our neighborhoods, with our relatives, in the workplace and in every human interaction that we engage in on this side of eternity. We are excited to be ambassadors for God in bringing His message to a lost and dying world. II Corinthians 5:18-20 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.
