DAY 16 | States: NV & NH
DAILY TOPIC: Ethics
PRAYER FOR ETHICS
We ask for a rebirth of an understanding between right and wrong. Lead us, O God, in Your way of thinking, saying and doing the right thing.We ask that ethics, honor, integrity, morality, goodness, wholesomeness, fidelity, character, respect and manners gain prominence as virtues in our land. As the Author of right and wrong, we ask You to rekindle in us a clear sense of moral truth in America. We ask that You foil all efforts to redefine ethics apart from You and Your truth. We ask for the widespread teaching of ethics in our homes and educational institutions … not for the purpose of staying out of trouble, but for the ethical value of doing the right thing by You. We ask for leaders of impeccable ethical character and conduct.
Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful; But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in (God’s) law he meditates day and night. He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he does shall prosper (Psalm 1:1-3).
PRAYER FOR ISRAEL
Lord, thank you that the President recognized Jerusalem as the Biblical capital of Israel and moved our Embassy. We pray for peace and prosperity in Israel, and ask for an end to the violence and suffering. We pray for justice, and Your sovereign righteousness over Israel. We pray for mercy and Your Kingdom to rule over the land. Please protect the soldiers and civilians from bloodshed. Give wisdom to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Knesset (The legislature of Israel). May Israel remain strong, not dividing the land You gave as an inheritance to Your chosen people. May the United States continue to fully support Israel, the nation that gave us salvation through Jesus Christ.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, may they prosper that love thee (Psalm 122:6).
