| Pray for our Nation! |
Today
is National Day of Prayer when people all over the country
will be united, praying for
our country—praying that it will turn back to God. They
will pray for our President, our Vice-President, Congress, and the
Supreme Court. Prayers for our governors, senators, leaders will be
lifted up to the Throne. Teachers, principals, policemen, and firemen will be interceded for. People will implore God to spare
America for the sake of a few Christians (Genesis 18:22-33), earnestly asking God to
give us strength to teach
those around us about Him and His love and how He wants our country
to run based on His principles shown in His Word. God
will be begged to help our country. Will you be among the many
who bow themselves before God and implore of Him for wisdom,
strength, and help? Will you pray for your country to turn back to
its Godly roots—not only today, but always? In American history, Congress has declared about 200 national days of praying, fasting, and thanksgiving. If America wants to remain free, we need to return to His plan for us and the Biblical principles on which our nation was founded. Pray. Pray for our
country and our leaders to turn to God.
Thank you for the reminder. This is so important. I will be praying throughout the day.
ReplyDeleteThank you for interceding for our country!
DeleteAmen!
ReplyDeleteSo true. Thank you for reminding us to pray.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Bethany, for the reminder and encouragement. And we must never forget, whichever direction this nation goes, our true citizenship as Christians is in Heaven, and we are strangers on earth. He will never leave us or forsake us. I don't know what kind of country you will inherit from my generation, but it is one that will require your generation to follow hard after Him, and to never lose faith. I love ya. You are a true blessing and joy to Mom and me.
ReplyDeleteThank YOU, Dad! Yes, it is so nice to know where we are going and that we are citizens in heaven! When our names are written in the Book of Life, we have a different responsibility here on Earth—to try to change way the world is going. To change them towards God and a citizenship in heaven without fear for our life!
