Praying for the Nation: Lifting Our Nation Before the Throne of Grace is a prayer handbook for such a time as this. In a world filled with constant headlines, anger, division, and fear, it’s easy to complain, criticize, and feel powerless. But God has given His people a different assignment: “Supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority…” — 1 Timothy 2:1–2 (NKJV) This book is not political commentary. It is a tool for intercession —a way to turn what you see and feel into Bible-based prayers that build up instead of tear down. Organized into clear, focused sections, Praying for the Nation helps you pray specifically over: Government & Leadership – President, Vice President, advisers, Congress, judges, governors, and local officials - Military & Protection – Armed Forces, borders, law enforcement, first responders, and protection from organized crime and trafficking - Financial Sector – The economy, businesses, workers, families, stewardship, integrity, and protection from greed and corruption - Agriculture & Provision – Farmers, crops, food supply, famine, and stewardship of the land - Health & Care – Doctors, nurses, hospitals, caregivers, mental health, patients, and families - Education – Teachers, students, schools, universities, and the protection of truth in education - Environment & Creation – Weather, natural resources, disasters, and care for the earth - Media & Communication – Journalists, social media, entertainment, and truth in reporting - Family & Relationships – Marriages, children, elderly, blended families, neighborhoods, careers, and more - Those Who Serve the Church – Pastors, missionaries, evangelists, teachers, and lay people - Personal Spiritual Growth & Other Needs – Strength in trials, inner peace, forgiveness, hope, comfort in grief, joy, love, and a call to speak life over our nation Each prayer is written in everyday language, rooted in Scripture (NKJV), and designed to be read aloud—alone, with family, or in a church or small group setting. Instead of letting the news steal your peace, let it prompt your prayers . Instead of using your words to tear down, use them to sow good seed—thirty, sixty, and a hundredfold—for your nation, your community, and your own life. Lift your voice. Lift your nation. Come boldly before the throne of grace and pray for the nation .
