Prayer For DisUSA

Dear Lord, so many are feeling anxious, worried and stressed these days. We ask You to fill us with Your peace and help our minds to be at rest. Help us to remember that no matter who is President, You are still on the throne and fully in control. We pray that honesty, fairness and truth will prevail. We ask that You would grant us Your wisdom and fill us with Your love, that we might overcome all that divides us. We humble ourselves before You as we pray, Lord and we ask You to heal our land and spread Your grace and mercy on this nation. We ask these things in Jesus' name. Amen

On June 14,2025, AT 75+ YO I CHOSE TO STAY HOME AND PRAY!!!🙏🏾Dear God, we come before You with heavy hearts. There is a wannabe dictator and enablers who mercilessly are persecuting others with no repercussions. We are angry and we want to hate, but help us turn our hate to hope; help our hearts to expand to the idea that these workers of evil can do good, and that you can radically transform their lives, just like you did with Paul.

God, we pray for the family, staff members and friends close to these workers of iniquity . We pray you strengthen their resolve, that they might witness what is happening, see it for what it is and call it out. We pray their words will be met with understanding and not violence.

And, God, we pray for those who are overseeing these horrible atrocities—these domestic terrorists and their followers. Before You, we were all broken people; only You can make us whole. Like You’ve worked in our lives, we ask You to work in the lives of those who persecute, abuse, and kill. We believe in Your strength and that there is nothing You can’t do. Please work in their lives and turn their hearts of stones to flesh..

You are God and You are good. You are Elohim, Adonai and Jehovah. You hear our prayers, and we are thankful.

Amen.

DON'T GET DISTRACTED WITH CONVICTED FELON #34 CREATED LA CHAOS OR HARVARD INTERNATIONAL STUDENT DEBACLE !!OR SOUTH AFRICA WHITE GENOCIDE !!!OR PRESIDENT BIDEN'S DIAGNOSIS!!! OR DIDDY 'S TRIAL!!!OR ISRAEL/IRAN CONFLICT

🤔What we should be talking about is the" BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL" the RepubliCONS in the house just passed to cut Medicaid, snap and veterans and other benefits!!!👀👂🏾🤔🥲👎🏾Let all Senators know you don't want this bill to pass. There's so much buried in its 1,000 pages, things like this:

If this passes, we won't have another election.

To those of you who don't know what's buried in this Big Bogus Bill... Prepare yourself for what's coming.

If the Senate passes the "One Big Beautiful Bill" and Trump signs it, that's it.

It becomes law. And here's what that really means:

He can delay or cancel elections-legally.

He can ignore Supreme Court rulings for a year or more.

He can fire government workers for political disloyalty.

Judges can't enforce their own orders.

Protests can be tracked and criminalized.

LGBTQ+ rights, education, health care, and media?

Gutted.

• Your VPN? Tracked. Your vote? Suppressed. Your speech? Flagged.

This bill doesn't break the law. It rewrites the law so Trump never has to break it again.

We don't need to wonder what would happen if authoritarianism came to America.

It's here-in 1,100 pages, dressed up as "freedom."

If you've ever said, "It won't be that bad" or "The courts will stop him,"

just know: this bill makes it so they can't.

Share this. Speak up. Show up. Now.

Because if this passes, the next vote might be the last one that matters.

Bishop Rev. Wm. Barber is the best spiritual preacher-teacher! God Bless you beyond a thousandfold for telling it like it is, dear Wm. Barber, and being so inclusive and expansive and so full of LOVE!

If 3 Hebrew boys can change Babylon - surely all of us can change America! Yes we CAN face the fiery furnace. It got heated 7 times hotter while we were just trying to live! People being snatched from their loved ones WITHOUT due process? Rising prices? We can’t even make major repairs on our homes! Have faith and courage. Rev. Barber had to go to jail. I believe in the power of ordinary people to create positive change. “It’s time to get into some GOOD trouble” to help redeem the soul of America.

Everywhere Jesus went he healed people and NEVER charged anyone! There wasn’t even a co-pay. Don’t miss the memo.

His message on focusing on policy is spot on. After listening to this, I’m fired up and ready for June 30!

America means freedom, liberty and justice for ALL. When Black, Indigenous, Brown, Asian, Latino, YT, straight, and gay join together in faith (the substance of things hoped for) we will see God move if we humble ourselves and pray. None of us are MLK, Malcolm or Fannie Lou Hamer - but we ARE their children. We’ve cried, fought, and struggled. We WON’T work in the fields without fair wages and conditions. It’s not an option! THAT’s why I go to bible study. I don’t want to miss the Word of God or the movement of the Holy Ghost because I BELIEVE Romans 8:28 - that ALL things work together for good.
