Thursday, May 2, is The National Day Of Prayer. The theme this year is, “Love One Another”, from Jesus’ words in John 13:34, when He ate the Last Supper with His disciples and then washed their feet as an example of humility, saying “Love one another, as I have loved you.”
We need to do this now, more than ever, with all the divisiveness and bickering 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 and governments of the world. We are truly blessed with a good government and abundant material blessings. Many people in the world have to spend almost all of their time and efforts just to survive. Pray that our government leaders will work together for the good of 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.
