Day 10 - Prayer for America

19. Pray for the leaders, churches and Christians of Kentucky and Louisiana.

20. Pray for the children and youth of America, that God will grant them protection of body, soul, mind and spirit and fill them with godly desires and true hope.

My Prayer:

Oh Heavenly Father,

Jesus said once, "let the little children come unto me, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these"...we need to let our children SEE who Jesus is...who YOU are, God. I pray for a hedge of protection around these little souls. That they are careful what their eyes see...that they are mindful of what their hands do...that they are vigilant of what their minds think...that they know where their feet go...because You are their guide, and if they are careful and follow You, they will know redemption and grace...and hope beyond the ages! Hold every single child close and near to Your loving heart - give them the spirit to stand up to those who don't believe in You. Let them show how Your son's sacrifice of life works in their hearts daily to make the world a better place. They are our FUTURE, God...help US to not screw it up for them!

Be with the leaders in Kentucky and Louisiana, God. Let everything be set aside that is not important. Let the churches and Christians of these states come forward and say that they will not be swayed by politics, but by what is good and right for their states. No matter what anyone says, religion is forever entwined in the politics of this country, and only soulless people want these separate for ever. Let those who can, lead those who can't....

In your name I pray...
