Prayer For Peace

Having grown up in the 1960s, there have been many times that I have heard people discuss peace. In scriptures we see that we are encouraged to pray for peace.

Psalms 122:6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.
7 Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.
8 For my brethren and companions’ sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee.
9 Because of the house of the Lord our God I will seek thy good.

Again, our Messiah also expounded on this.

Matthew 5:9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Let us keep the peace, the peace with God.

Philippians 4:6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King. Praise the name YAH! Let Your will be done here as it is in heaven, and let Your kingdom come here in the hearts and minds and bodies of mankind. Send us now Your overwhelming provision. Deliver us from the evil here. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Wipe away all thoughts and memories of the evil done to us or by us. In their place let there be only thoughts and memories of You and Your love for us. Restore Your people, Father. Restore unto Your people all the worm has eaten. Restore unto Your people all that has been taken or held back in any way of that which is good, and the more besides. Send in quickly the $423,923,926.53 that we might use it to promote the kingdom of God in the hearts and minds and bodies of the people here. WE ask all these things in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiak. Amen.
