It is better to trust the Lord than to put confidence in princes.  Psalm 118:9

Better is a neighbor who is near than a brother who is far away.  Proverbs 27:10

Let no one seek his own, but each one the other's well-being. 1 Corinthians 10:24

Let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds.  Hebrews 10:24

We ask for Your guidance in how to best promote the well-being of our citizens.

We thank you, Father, for founders who referred to You as Providence itself.

Help us, O God, to truly honor our national motto:  In God We trust.

Bring us to a full understanding of the founders Constitutional intent behind allowing government the power to promote the general welfare. 

We ask You to help us reverse the trend to look to government to provide for us, take over for us, and then take us over.

As Your church, we pray for Your guidance in how best to help the least of our neighbors.

Father, the question in America used to be "Ask what you can do for your country."  It now seems to be "What have you done for me lately, country?"  We repent from our tendency to look to Caesar for our daily bread. Help us, O God, to return to trust in You over any earthly or material source.  And help us to be Your hands and heart in tending to the true needs of the least among us.
