Thursday, May 2, was The National Day Of Prayer. The theme this year was “Love One Another”, from Jesus’ words in John 13:34, to his disciples, on the evening before Good Friday, when he ate the Last Supper with his disciples, and then washed their feet, as an example of humility, instructing them to do the same as he did, telling them, “Love one another, as I have loved you.”
We need to do this now, more than ever, with all the divisiveness, fighting and bickering going on everywhere around us. We need to pray that God would bless our country, our leaders, military people, police officers, and all our government people. We need to also pray for God’s peace and blessings on all the people in the world and on their governments.
We are truly blessed here in The United States with a good government and abundant material blessings. Many people in the world have to spend almost all of their time and efforts to have enough food and drink, even water, to survive. Pray that our government leaders would work together for the good of our country, our people, and the whole world.
God tells us in 2 Chronicles, 7:14, “If My people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and forgive their sin, and heal their land.”
So, let us pray. Thank you.
