"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world." (James 1:27)

The Power of Prayer Changes Lives

1 Timothy 2:1-2
"I urge, then, first of all that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone--for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness."




Today we have a new President and according to the Bible we are to pray for our President and all of our government leaders. Regardless of our political views, President Obama and his family, Vice President Joe Biden and his family, and all leaders need our prayers. I pray that they would seek the one and only true living God, and that God would give them wisdom and insight and I pray for their protection and God's blessings.

We as a nation need to turn to Jesus Christ and seek His face above all else. We need to bless God with our lives, for He has immeasurably blessed us.

Remember that God is ultimately in charge of world politics... "The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD; he directs it like a watercourse wherever he pleases." (Proverbs 21:1)

Romans 8:15-17
"For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption. And by him we cry 'Abba, Father.' The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God's children. Now if we are children, then we are heirs--heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory."
