DAY 27 | States: TX & UT
DAILY TOPIC: Healthcare and Healing
PRAYER FOR HEALTHCARE AND HEALING
Guide us, Lord, to Your model for health care and healing in our country. Thank You for all You have given us through the gifts and talents, compassion and creativity of our health care professionals in America. Lord, we are in desperate need for Your guidance in how best to serve everyone in need of health care. Please lead those who are working to bring that about. Guide and guard them from greed, self interest and corruption. As Our ultimate Healer and Lord, we ask for You to intervene and guide our country to do the right thing in Your eyes for those who need medical help. We beseech You, on behalf of every American to lead us to health care that honors You and Your desires for Americans. God Almighty, we ask You to help us sort out truth from deception, right from wrong, and good from evil in our health care system. Give us Your wisdom and the courage to stand for what is true, right, good, honorable and fair to those who provide health care and those who need it.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths (Proverbs 3:5-6).

PRAYER FOR ISRAEL
Lord, thank you that the President recognized Jerusalem as the Biblical capital of Israel and moved our Embassy. We pray for peace and prosperity in Israel, and ask for an end to the violence and suffering. We pray for justice, and Your sovereign righteousness over Israel. We pray for mercy and Your Kingdom to rule over the land. Please protect the soldiers and civilians from bloodshed. Give wisdom to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Knesset (The legislature of Israel). May Israel remain strong, not dividing the land You gave as an inheritance to Your chosen people. May the United States continue to fully support Israel, the nation that gave us salvation through Jesus Christ.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, may they prosper that love thee (Psalm 122:6).
Day 27 -
Declaration of Independence In Congress, July 4, 1776, continues …
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly, all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
Prayer: We pray that our rights in America are upheld, that we do not need to abolish and institute a new government and that those currently in office will be converts to Christianity.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
