ENCOURAGEMENT CORNER
The First Prayer offered in Congress on September 7, 1774 by Jacob Duche O Lord our Heavenly Father, high and mighty King of kings, and Lord of lords, who dost from Thy throne behold all the dwellers on earth and reignest with power supreme and uncontrolled over all the kingdoms, empires and governments; look down in mercy, we be-‐
seech Thee, on these our American States, who have fled to Thee from the rod of the op-‐
pressor and thrown themselves on Thy gracious protection, desiring to be henceforth de-‐
pendent only on Thee. To Thee have they appealed for the righteousness of their cause; to Thee do they now look up for that countenance and support, which Thou alone canst give. Take them, therefore, Heavenly Father, under Thy nurturing care; give them wisdom in council and valor in the field; defeat the malicious designs of our cruel adversaries; con-‐
vince them of the unrighteousness of their cause and if they persist in their sanguinary pur-‐
poses, of own unerring justice, sounding in their hearts, constrain them to drop the weap-‐
ons of war from their unnerved bands in the day of battle! CALL TO WORSHIP
Be wise in the way you
act toward outsiders;;
make the most of
every opportunity. Let
your conversation be
always full of grace,
seasoned with salt, so
that you may know
how to answer everyone.
Colossians 4:5-6
SCRIPTURE
Be Thou present, O God of wisdom, and direct the councils of this honorable assembly; en-‐
able them to settle things on the best and surest foundation. That the scene of blood may be speedily closed; that order, harmony, and peace may be effectually restored, and truth and justice, religion and piety, prevail and flourish amongst the people. Preserve the health of their bodies and vigor of their minds; shower down on them and the millions they here represent, such temporal blessings as Thou seest expedient for them in this world and crown them with everlasting glory in the world to come. All this we ask in the name and through the merits of Jesus Christ, Thy Son and our Savior. Amen My brothers and
sisters, if one of you
should wander from
the truth and someone should bring that
person back,
