PRAYER FOR AMERICA


The Bahá'í House of Worship of America.

 

Dear Angels,


In the words of an eminent Eastern visitor to the United States in 1912, the one who guided the erection of the above pictured temple:

America is a GREAT INSTRUMENT for the accomplishment of world unity. No other nation of the world stands in a similar position of influence and responsibility.

This affirmation being in fact one of the prophetic words uttered by that Ambassador of World Peace, Abdu'l-Baha, may it come to pass!

United in prayer, may God assist the enlightenment of America and protect those in charge of ensuring the integrity of We the People.

Therefore, first of all I urge that requests, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgiving be made on behalf of all people -for kings and all who are in authority- so we may live a peaceful and quiet life in all godliness and respectfulness.

- 1 Tim 2:1-2


PRAYER FOR AMERICA

O my God! O Thou Who endowest every just power and equitable dominion with abiding glory and everlasting might, with permanence and stability, with constancy and honour! Aid Thou by Thy heavenly grace every government that acteth justly towards its subjects and every sovereign authority, derived from Thee, that shieldeth the poor and the weak under the banner of its protection.


I beseech Thee, by Thy divine grace and surpassing bounty, to aid this just government, the canopy of whose authority is spread over vast and mighty lands and the evidences of whose justice are apparent in its prosperous and flourishing regions. Assist, O my God, its hosts, raise aloft its ensigns, bestow influence upon its word and its utterance, protect its lands, increase its honour, spread its fame, reveal its signs, and unfurl its banner through Thine all-subduing power and Thy resplendent might in the kingdom of creation.


Thou, verily, aidest whomsoever Thou willest, and Thou, verily, art the Almighty, the Most Powerful.

- Abdu'l-Baha

Pray also, my Friends, for those working  tirelessly to keep truth and justice alive in America, for our great Christian WARRIORS.



Be wonderfully blessed !
