Prayer With Insight

Praying for our precious nation
Is deep matter for concern.
We must “sort out” what we hear
And truth or falsities discern.

News on radio and TV
Will bring distraction every day.
But as we’re focused in the Lord
We will know just how to pray.

The enemy tries to break our focus
With distractions and much noise,
But as we spend time in deep prayer
We will recognize His ploys.

God will hear our heartfelt prayers
And guide us in this midnight hour.
If we will come on bended knee
We’ll see Him move with might and power.

“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”
II Chronicles 7:14 KJV
