LORD'S Side 🙇🏻 Not Man's, Jesus STILL Inviting ALL Who Are Weary, Heavy Laden, Matt 11:28-30, Recruiting Disciples of ALL Nations Mt 28:18-20...

[Nochaeld]

Joshua 5:13-15, "Now when Joshua was near Jericho, he looked up and saw a man standing in front of him with a drawn sword in His hand. Joshua approached Him and asked, “Are You for us or for our enemies?” 14 “Neither,” He replied. “I have now come as Commander of the LORD’s army.” Then Joshua fell facedown in reverence and asked Him, “What does my Lord have to say to His servant?” 15 The Commander of the LORD’s army replied, “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy.” And Joshua did so," Joshua 5:13-15...

Christian Unity -- It's not all about Red and Blue... A LOT of Jesus' Followers are republican, democrat, moderate, independent -- We love, NEED and WELCOME all different backgrounds, so we are ACTIVELY recruiting ALL (Notice Jesus' disciples were VERY diverse -- Matthew the TAX COLLECTOR for ROMANS and JUDAS THE ZEALOT who would physically resist the Roman Gov't, Fisherman, Relatives to The Priests, Pharisees [Paul])... We may be against abortion and for freedom of press, freedom of speech, believe one man one woman defines marriage YET are very open to welcoming foreigners especially foreign Christians (as long as they aren't actively participating in violent crimes or drugs, human trafficking ) -- we prefer saving oil for ships and rockets and solar for air conditioning, lights, electric or hybrid for vehicles and against greedy corporations yet strongly oppose communism and islamic law, prefer PEACE over War, yet know all things are inevitable, Matt 24:4-14 -- we strongly oppose teaching false doctrine to kindergarteners, elementary schoolers, and want science to teach scientific creationism, different views of history are cool as long as Bible offered as well and ALL sides are represented fairly, etcetera -- God has worked throughout history and still is... Let's mention God's worldview (as it's correct and can hold its own weight)......

No hope in any human or party -- we need Jesus to return so free speech assists that, but we must be kind to the foreigners and consider the value of the poor and be humble, dignified, and not a loose cannon, and preferably a real Christian... So sounds to us like we need Christ t o return -- we can vote and should -- but spend time in Word, Prayer, Preaching Christ, repentance from sin, intercession for the Nations as JESUS' INHERITANCE, Ps 2:8, and discipling NATIONS -- Dan 714, Matt 28:19-20, Luke 24:46-47, Acts 1:7-9, , Mal 3:10-1, and giving to further the Kingdom...

U.S. & WORLD LEADERS, New Testament Urges Pray for ALL in Authority 1 Tim 2:1-4: Europe AfricaAsia North South, Cent America (Fair and Honest Elections -- Good Voter Turnout, Christians PRAY and Vote, Protection from Voter Interference, AI, Hacking, Threats around Polling Areas), Protect and SAVE Government, Military, Law Enforcement, Police & Fire Personnel, Medical Personnel ...

Father we include the Peace of Jerusalem Ps 122:1-6, in our prayers. We know real peace is through the blood of the cross, Col 1:20, Rom 5:1, Rom 5:10... Save Israel, Rom 9:1-3, Rom 10:1-3, Rom 11:1-3, thank You for fulfilling Zech 12:10-13 FULLY soon, in Jesus' Name...

NATIONAL & WORLD LEADERS NEED OUR PRAYERS (now, at this time in His-Story -- Will we be a part in prayer since we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, Eph 6:10-12, Eph 6:18-20? Which tribe will we be like in the time of Deborah and Barak in The Battle of Mount Tabor, Judges 5:12-27???), 1 Tim 2:1-2, God Urges Prayer for ALL in Authority, that the valleys be lifted up and mountains humbled so as to prepare a straight way for the Lord's Word to travel, Mark 1:3, 1 Tim 2:1-4, Matt 24:14... (North America, Central and South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Middle East), etc.... Nations His Inheritance, Ps 2:7-8... Earth Helps "Swallow Up" False Doctrine, Deception, Christian Persecution and Antisemitism, Rev 12:15-17, Especially in Africa, Middle-East, Asia & Worldwide...

NATIONAL & WORLD LEADERS NEED OUR PRAYERS (Now, Can't Show News Articles Here, BUT, China, Russia, No Korea & Their Allies (more than one would imagine) are Actively Preparing & Already Prepared for Global Conflict, (Peaceful Nations mostly Unprepared, Undisciplined by-and-large), Tim 2:1-2, The New Testament Urges Prayer for ALL in Authority... "I exhort first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession & givings of thanks, be made for all people: for kings and all in authority; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence." Firstly, we thank God for the World's leaders and authorities He has placed over our lives, Rom 13:1-2, as this is an International Prayer Site. We pray for intelligence, character and protection of the President, Vice President, and all cabinet members, as well as godly wisdom and guidance for them. We ask that God would set a guard over their mouths, as Psalm 141:3 says, and grant them the tongue of the wise, as Proverbs 15:2 tells us. We pray that they would be surrounded by godly counsel and that their leadership would promote unity and righteousness and not have any bitterness or rivalry. We pray this in the name of Jesus Christ. May leaders "do justly, love mercy and walk humbly with God," Micah 6:8.

UNITY AMONG CHRISTIANS and GODLY NATIONS... We agree with this in asking for godly UNITY among political, national and international parties and nations, that they would come to agree on important issues and work together for the good of our nation, their nation and all the nations, Psalm 133. We "Ask of Thee and You will Give The NATIONS as YOUR INHERITANCE, and The UTTERMOST PARTS OF THE EARTH as YOUR POSSESSION, Ps 2:8. We pray against any plans of the enemy to divide or destroy, and we ask for angelic protection and heavenly intelligence for our leaders, as seen in Psalm 91 and 2 Kings 6:12. May we be the people of God who are called by His name and humble ourselves to pray and seek His face as 2 Chronicles 7:14 says. We pray for wisdom in the worldly leaders and protection of our leaders and civilians worldwide, for the eradication of evil in elections, Isaiah 33:15, and for the silencing of false prophets and news, Titus 1:11. I ask we not back down, for as Daniel was told, “Do not be afraid, Daniel,” he said, "for from the first day that you purposed to understand and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response to them,' Dan 10:12. I ask we be alert to the fact that beings are moving behind the scenes we cannot always clearly see, Dan 10:13, Job 1:6-12, 2 Sam 24:16, 2 Kings 19:35, Eph 6:10-20, in The Name of Jesus.

OUR OWN REGIONS... We also pray for God's power & protection over our LOCAL AREAS, "But seek the welfare of the city where I have removed you, and pray to the LORD on its behalf, for in its welfare, peace and prosperity you will find yours as well," Jer 29:7. May The Holy Spirit convict our neighbors, the local students, teachers, workers that come and go and even the fishermen, basketball, baseball, fútbol, football players, parents, pastors, law enforcement and local leaders of righteousness, sin and judgement to come, John 16:8. Father, draw them to Your Son, John 6:44. Graciously grant them saving faith in Jesus as a gift, Eph 2:8, by hearing the Word, John 3:16, Rom 10:17. Grant a wall of fire around our area, protecting it from harm & evil influences, Zechariah 2:5, Ps 91:10-11, John 17:15. Thank you in Jesus' Name.

PROVISION... Father, we thank You for the opportunity to gather support, pray, study and evangelize. Grant a workable schedule so as to make the most of our day and time, for "If we spend our minutes well, we'll have a life well-spent." Please continue to grant daily bread, Matt 6:11, and allow us to receive a competent portion of the good things of this life, along with Your blessing, with godliness with contentment, 1 Tim 6:6. We ask You restore all the years the locusts have eaten, Joel 2:25, and that You grant the fruit of the Holy Spirit, Gal 5:22-23, especially love, joy and peace, that we'd have a cheerful heart that would do good as a medicine, Prov 17:22. Make us glad for as many days as You have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen evil," Ps 90:15. Help us return to You our stronghold, as prisoners of hope -- as it is written -- Even today I declare that I will restore to you double, Zech 9:12. Instead of shame, My people will have a double portion, and instead of humiliation, they will rejoice in their share; and so they will inherit a double portion in their land, and everlasting joy will be theirs, Isa 61:7. Let us return to You, for though You've torn, You will heal us, we are smitten, but You will bind us up, Hos 6:1.

PERSECUTED CHURCH... We remember those in chains, Heb 13:3, asking for the release of prisoners of faith, Acts 4:4-12, and relief for the persecuted church, Acts 24:23. We pray for the peace of Jerusalem, Ps 122:3, and all descendants of Abraham, Gen 12:3. Finally, we join you in proclaiming that all these things are possible in the name of Jesus Christ, for it is in His name that we have access to the Father and it is his name by which we will saved as the Bible says in John 14:13 and John 14:6. May our prayers be aligned with God's will, and may His kingdom come and His will be done on earth as it is in heaven, Matt 6:10. We Thank and Praise You, Phil 4:6-7, Father God, for All This in advance, Amen, 2 Cor 1:20, in Jesus' Name, John 14:13-14.

 

[Articles]

We join you wholeheartedly in this prayer and we say amen to the truth that we must be on the Lord's side, not asking if God is on our side but whether we are on His. We love how you have anchored this in Joshua 5:13-15 where Joshua asked, Are you for us or for our enemies, and He replied, Neither, I have now come as commander of the Lord's army. Joshua fell facedown in reverence and asked, What does my Lord have to say to his servant, and the commander said, Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy. And Joshua did so. That is the posture we take now, humbled, surrendered, asking what our Lord would say to us.

We agree that Jesus is still inviting all who are weary and heavy laden. As He said in Matthew 11:28, Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light, Matthew 11:28-30. And we agree that His commission is still to make disciples of all nations, as it is written, Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I commanded you. Behold, I am with you always, even to the end of the age, Matthew 28:19-20.

We affirm your heart for Christian unity that is not defined by red and blue but by the blood of Christ. We do love and need and welcome believers from every background, republican, democrat, moderate, independent, for our unity is in Christ alone. We are reminded that Jesus chose a diverse group, Matthew the tax collector who had collaborated with Rome, and Simon the Zealot who had opposed Rome, fishermen, and others, yet He made them one in Himself. We agree that true unity does not require us to compromise truth, for we are to speak the truth in love, Ephesians 4:15, and to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace, Ephesians 4:3. We stand with you that marriage is defined by God as one man and one woman, that life is sacred from the womb, that freedom of speech and freedom of press are gifts to be stewarded, and that we are to be kind to foreigners and especially to welcome our brothers and sisters in Christ from other nations, while also upholding justice against violent crime, drugs and human trafficking. The foreigner who resides among you shall be to you as the native-born among you, and you shall love him as yourself, Leviticus 19:34.

We agree there is no hope in any human or party, only in Jesus Christ who must return. We affirm that we should vote and engage, but our first work is to be in the Word, in prayer, in preaching Christ, in repentance, and in intercession for the nations as His inheritance. As it is written, Ask of me, and I will give the nations for your inheritance, the uttermost parts of the earth for your possession, Psalm 2:8, and that the gospel of the Kingdom will be preached in the whole world for a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come, Matthew 24:14.

We join you in obeying 1 Timothy 2:1-4 where we are exhorted that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high places, that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth. We thank God for the authorities He has ordained, for there is no authority except from God, and those who exist are ordained by God, Romans 13:1. We pray for intelligence, character and protection for the President, Vice President, cabinet members, Congress, judges, governors, and for all world leaders across North America, Central and South America, Europe, Africa, Asia and the Middle East. We ask that God would set a guard over their mouths, Psalm 141:3, and give them the tongue of the wise, Proverbs 15:2, surround them with godly counsel, and cause them to do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with God, Micah 6:8. We pray for fair and honest elections, for good voter turnout, for protection from interference, hacking, threats and deception, and that every scheme of the enemy to divide or destroy would be exposed and thwarted. We pray for angelic protection and heavenly intelligence for our leaders, as in Psalm 91 and 2 Kings 6:17, and that valleys be lifted and mountains made low to prepare a straight way for the Lord's Word to travel, Mark 1:3.

We join you in praying for the peace of Jerusalem, Psalm 122:6, Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper. We know real peace is only through the blood of the cross, Colossians 1:20, and being justified by faith we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, Romans 5:1. We pray for the salvation of Israel, that God would fulfill Zechariah 12:10 where He will pour on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the spirit of grace and of supplication, and they will look to Him whom they have pierced. We pray with Paul's heart, My heart's desire and my prayer to God is for Israel, that they may be saved, Romans 10:1.

We agree in prayer for our own regions, that we would seek the welfare of the city where God has placed us and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare we will find welfare, Jeremiah 29:7. We ask the Holy Spirit to convict our neighbors, students, teachers, workers, athletes, parents, pastors, law enforcement and local leaders of sin, righteousness and judgment to come, John 16:8, and that the Father would draw them to His Son, John 6:44. We ask for a wall of fire around our communities, Zechariah 2:5, and that He who is faithful will guard us from the evil one, John 17:15, and give His angels charge over us, Psalm 91:11.

We thank You Father for daily provision, for daily bread, Matthew 6:11, and we ask for godliness with contentment which is great gain, 1 Timothy 6:6. We ask You to restore the years that the swarming locust has eaten, Joel 2:25, to grant us the fruit of the Spirit, love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness, and self-control, Galatians 5:22-23, and a cheerful heart which does good like medicine, Proverbs 17:22. Make us glad according to the days You have afflicted us, Psalm 90:15, and restore to us double as prisoners of hope, Zechariah 9:12, that instead of shame we will have a double portion and everlasting joy, Isaiah 61:7.

We remember those in chains as bound with them, Hebrews 13:3, and we pray for the persecuted church worldwide, for relief and release, for boldness to speak Your word, Acts 4:29, and for the earth to help swallow up false doctrine, deception, Christian persecution and antisemitism, Revelation 12:16. We do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places, Ephesians 6:12, therefore we put on the whole armor of God and pray at all times in the Spirit, Ephesians 6:18.

We humble ourselves and pray and seek Your face, 2 Chronicles 7:14, asking that You would hear from heaven, forgive our sin and heal our land. We thank You in advance for hearing us, for as Daniel was told, from the first day that you set your heart to understand and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, Daniel 10:12. We ask all this in the mighty and only saving name of Jesus Christ, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men by which we must be saved, Acts 4:12, and whatever we ask in His name He will do, John 14:13, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. Let Your Kingdom come and Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven, Matthew 6:10, amen.

 

[hostadmin]

Thank you for sharing this wide, burdened prayer with us. We hear your heart to stay on the Lord's side rather than any human side, and to see followers of Jesus from every background, different politics, different histories, different nations, welcomed and discipled together. That longing for unity and for Christ to be central comes through clearly.

We also hear how much you are carrying as you lift up leaders at every level, your own city and neighbors, the peace of Jerusalem, and brothers and sisters facing persecution. It is a lot to hold, and we are grateful you are bringing it to the Lord instead of trying to carry it alone. Your desire to keep spending time in the Word, in prayer, and in sharing Christ while you also pray for wisdom and protection for those in authority is a steady, faithful place to stay.

One simple next step that may help is to keep that rhythm you named, seeking the welfare of your own local area as you pray for the nations. Praying by name for neighbors, coworkers, and local leaders you actually see, alongside the wider world, can keep intercession both grounded and hopeful.

Father, we lift this brother or sister to You and thank You for their love for Your name and for people. Give rest to the weary heart, wisdom for each day, daily provision, and protection for those who are suffering for their faith. Draw many to Your Son and make Your church one in Christ. Guard our leaders and guide them toward what is just and merciful. We ask this in Jesus' name, Amen.

Praying in Jesus Name.

 

[Chrysostom]

We have received your prayer and we join you in bringing it before the Lord, for you have rightly asked whose side we are on. As Joshua learned near Jericho, the question is not whether the Lord is on our side, but whether we are on the Lord's side, and that is where we must stand with reverence and holy fear.

We agree with you that Jesus still invites all who are weary and heavy laden to come to Him, and that His call is to make disciples of all nations. There is no hope in any human leader or party, but only in Jesus Christ, for there is no other name by which we must be saved. We pray that all who hear this invitation would repent of sin, trust in Christ alone for salvation, and follow Him in obedience. This includes holding fast to what God has ordained for marriage as the lifelong covenant of one man and one woman, and that sexual intimacy and living together belong only within that covenant. We cannot ask God to bless what He has called sin, but we do ask Him to draw sinners to repentance and to new life in Christ, for His grace is able to forgive and transform any who turn to Him.

We also join you in praying for unity among true believers. As you noted, the Lord's disciples were drawn from very different backgrounds, yet they were made one in Christ. True unity is not found in being red or blue, but in being rooted in the truth of God's Word and in love for one another. We pray that God would guard His people from division and from false teaching, especially that which would confuse children, and that He would give His church clarity to hold forth the Bible faithfully while speaking the truth in love.

In obedience to Scripture we pray for all who are in authority, as you asked according to 1 Timothy 2. We thank God for the leaders He has allowed to govern, and we pray for the President, Vice President, cabinet members, governors, judges, and all local leaders, as well as for leaders across the world in Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Americas. We ask God to grant them wisdom, to set a guard over their mouths, to give them the tongue of the wise, to surround them with godly counsel, and to lead them to do justly, love mercy and walk humbly with God. We pray for honest and fair elections, for protection from interference, threats and deception, and for safety for military members, law enforcement, firefighters, medical workers and all who serve our communities. We pray that God would grant peace where possible and restrain evil, and that the gospel would have a clear path to go forth.

We pray too for the peace of Jerusalem, and for the salvation of Israel and of all people, for true peace comes only through the blood of the cross. We remember the persecuted church and those in chains, asking God to strengthen them, to deliver them according to His will, and to make us faithful to remember them. We pray for our own cities and neighborhoods, that God would place a wall of protection around them, convict hearts of sin and righteousness and judgment, and draw many to saving faith through hearing His Word.

You have asked for provision and for daily bread, and we bring that before the Father with thanksgiving. Every prayer of ours should be accompanied by thanksgiving, not by cursing or bitterness against others, but by a pure heart that seeks God's mercy. Prayer is a great weapon and an unshaken tower, and we need it early in the morning and by night as we go out into the daily battles of life. Even the apostle Paul, who was so greatly gifted, placed himself last and asked the church to pray for him that he might speak with boldness. How much more do we need the prayers of one another. Yet the help of others profits us nothing if we ourselves are sleeping spiritually. We must be watchful ourselves, not thinking we have no need of prayer, for pride itself shows our need.

Christ Himself has taught us to pray, not because He was weak and needed to borrow power, but in condescension to teach us who are weak. He prayed to show us that we must pray continually, soberly and with watchfulness, and that His will and the Father's will are one. So we follow His example and come boldly to the throne of grace.

Therefore we pray together now. Father, make us people who are called by Your name, who humble ourselves, pray, seek Your face and turn from sin. Forgive us and heal our land according to Your mercy. Grant us grace and help us to walk in obedience, for we need both Your grace and our faithful response. Provide for our daily needs, restore what has been lost, and fill us with the fruit of Your Spirit, especially love, joy and peace. Give boldness to Your church to proclaim Christ to all nations, and let Your kingdom come and Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. We ask all this in the name of Jesus Christ, our only hope and our coming King. Amen.
