Power in Prayer
Devotional for July 1, 2020
“HAPPY BIRTHDAY CANADA”
O Canada! Our home and native land!
True patriot love thou dost in us command.
We see thee rising fair, dear land,
The True North, strong and free;
And stand on guard, O Canada,
We stand on guard for thee.
Refrain
O Canada! O Canada!
O Canada! We stand on guard for thee.
O Canada! We stand on guard for thee.
O Canada! Where pines and maples grow.
Great prairies spread and lordly rivers flow.
How dear to us thy broad domain,
From East to Western Sea,
Thou land of hope for all who toil!
Thou True North, strong and free!
Refrain
O Canada! Beneath thy shining skies
May stalwart sons and gentle maidens rise,
To keep thee steadfast through the years
From East to Western Sea,
Our own beloved native land!
Our True North, strong and free!
Refrain
Ruler supreme, who hearest humble prayer,
Hold our dominion within thy loving care;
Help us to find, O God, in thee
A lasting, rich reward,
As waiting for the Better Day,
We ever stand on guard.
Refrain
Scripture: 1 Peter 4:7 “The end of the world is coming soon, Therefore, be earnest and disciplined in your prayers.”
Since the end of the present order with the return of Christ is ever approaching ( James 5: 7 – 9 ). Christians are to be earnest and disciplined in our urgency to Pray.
1 Timothy 2:1 “I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them…” God is calling all of us to URGENTLY PRAY FOR OUR NATION. Let us all take time on July 1, 2020, to honor Canada with the singing of all 4 verses of our National Anthem and take 20 minutes and Pray.
Please respond with a confirmation that you have been obedient and took the time.
Be blessed
