Almighty, everlasting and omnipotent Father, You are all in all. What with the insecurities and uncertainties in the headlines, the darkness seems to swirl around us, deepening our resolve. We look to government, court rulings, presidents and military powers, princes and principalities, but there is no salvation in them. Our hope is in You, for there is no one like You. We humbly ask that You use these listed to bring about Your will, as You used imperfect men and women of Scripture.
Your Word is truth and Your promises are sure. Father, we love You, we trust You. We believe in Your sovereignty over all our circumstances. You are the God of the past, present and future. There is no one like You, who works continually for the greater good and for Your glory. We thank You that You have called us out of the present darkness and into Your marvelous light. We lift our prayer in the name and authority of Jesus, the Christ, who robes us in His righteousness, according to Your good and perfect will. Amen.
βAnd now, Lord, what do I wait for? My hope is in You.β (Psalm 39: 7 NKJV)
