Mon. June 22nd
For more than 15 years thousands of believers from coast to coast of this great land have joined us fasting twice weekly for the restoration of America and the protection of our military, police and firefighters. We now open up our company prayer time and invite believers to join us daily, cognizant of Heaven’s warning that we cannot allow one day to pass without prayer or evil will have renewed inroads to wreak havoc on our families. Each day we dawn the critical spiritual armor to protect our families and lift up our nation. In 30 minutes we praise, pray in the spirit, pray in repentance, pray for deliverance from evil’s reach & we read the most widely studied scripture passages in the world that day. We end with the biblical meditation of the rosary, prayed to God the Father, as punctuated by the greatest miracle of the 20th century when the heavens were rearranged while 75,000 watched in awe. We do this in 30 minutes that can be listened to on drive time, during the 4th Watch or as we right our priorities at day’s end. Sign up below and we will email you each day with the link to our prayer time. We hope to changes lives, families and the heights of our nation by making it convenient and pleasant to pray in a group each day rather than just talking about the Lord.
After He healed, raised the dead and walked on water, Jesus commanded us – Go and “Do Greater Things.” We want to take Him up on that.
Reading 1
1 Peter 4:12-19
12Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal which comes upon you to prove you, as though something strange were happening to you. 13But rejoice in so far as you share Christ’s sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed. 14If you are reproached for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. 15But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or a wrongdoer, or a mischief-maker; 16yet if one suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but under that name let him glorify God. 17For the time has come for judgment to begin with the household of God; and if it begins with us, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God? 18And “If the righteous man is scarcely saved, where will the impious and sinner appear?” 19Therefore let those who suffer according to God’s will do right and entrust their souls to a faithful Creator.
Psalm
Psalms 126:1-6
1When the LORD restored the fortunes of Zion, we were like those who dream. 2Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with shouts of joy; then they said among the nations, “The LORD has done great things for them.” 3The LORD has done great things for us; we are glad. 4Restore our fortunes, O LORD, like the watercourses in the Negeb! 5May those who sow in tears reap with shouts of joy! 6He that goes forth weeping, bearing the seed for sowing, shall come home with shouts of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.
Gospel
Matthew 10:34-39
34“Do not think that I have come to bring peace on earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; 36and a man’s foes will be those of his own household. 37He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; 38and he who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. 39He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for my sake will find it.
