2 Peter

I know my future is secure because I know You love me and hold my future in Your loving hands.

Your word tells us that just as You created all things, You control the destiny of the universe.  We know that You have the end of all things planned and coming soon. We are warned of the events that will lead to the end of this age and the final judgment.  Today’s headlines are drafted from the pages of Your word.

While Your children are safe, so many around us are lost with a hopeless future.  Please raise our voices of warning so they may be heard above the clamor of the world…let Your children proclaim the coming danger and cause many be restored before it’s too late.

AMEN

Scripture:  “Most importantly, I want to remind you that in the last days scoffers will come, mocking the truth and following their own desires.” II Peter 3:3

You have met every need I have. Thank You for Your generosity and goodness.

But, Lord, America today is bankrupt. We are morally bankrupt…we no longer know right from wrong. Our relationships are bankrupt…we have replaced our real friends with sterile social media followers and call it friendship.

We are spiritually bankrupt…we have abandoned You for the false gods of our culture. We have a truth deficit…preferring lies that support our narrative to any truth that challenges our story. You define the righteous standards which brings me joy and contentment. You provide me with true friends and fill my every lonely moment. You are the source of life for my spirit and peace for my soul.

Without you, I am without a future…with You my life overflows with Your blessings

AMEN

Scripture: “His divine power has given us everything required for life and godliness through the knowledge of Him who called us by his own glory and goodness.” II Peter 1:3

It is impossible to fathom why You would grant me an audience with You anytime I call, but I lift my voice to You confident that You are listening and that You care.

I cry out to You now, so ashamed of my complicity in what is happening in America today. We fearlessly mock Your word. We fearlessly mock Your Son.

We arrogantly believe we can manage without You…and by my silence I have allowed much of this to go unchallenged.

Forgive me for my silence and renew my voice. Send You breath of life again across this country. Revive Your bride and awaken in us a renewed commitment to represent Your Kingdom well at every opportunity.

AMEN

Scripture: “Know this first of all, that in the last days mockers will come with their mocking, following after their own lusts.”
II Peter 3:3
