DAILY INTERCESSION
THY KINGDOM COME And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth are passed away; and the sea is no more. And 1 saw the holy city, Jerusalem, coming down new out of heaven from God, made ready as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of the throne saying, Behold, the Tabernacle of God is with men, and He shall dwell with them, and they shall be His peoples, and God Himself shall be with them, their God. And he shall wipe away every tear from their eyes: and death shall be no more; neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain any more: the first things are passed away. And He that sitteth on the throne said: Behold, I make all things new. (Revelation 21: Iff.) Merciful Father, hear our prayers for the wounded and the sick, and in Thy mercy save those who fall. Uphold with Thy grace and strength those who do service to the wounded and the sick, and the chaplains who minister to spiritual needs. Bear the sorrows of the anxious and bereaved, and relieve the distress of all in every land who are suffering the horrors of war. Unite the nations of the world in compassionate brotherhood: in the Name of the Son of Men.
