National Day of Prayer ~ May 6th
Sometimes I am amazed what travels around the internet. This piece was sent to
me and I thought it would be a good piece to share with you ~
We are speeding towards one world government and the second coming at a rapid
pace. I remember reading about the children of Israel who turned from God time
and time again, only to realize their mistake and pray for forgiveness. Each
time God would forgive them and they
would walk with him for a time. So, I am going to ask you to join me in praying
for our Nation everyday. God is in control. The President did not encourage
participation in the National Day of Prayer. He called it an event. He thinks it
should be private prayer instead of Public Prayer.
May God have mercy on America and protect our troops. In Texarkana last week,
there were signs in people’s yards that read: “America: Prayer, our only hope”
with 2 Chronicles 7:14 underneath. We certainly need God’s help!
I have no idea who started this, but I certainly agree with its message. A
preacher on TV said that if we pray for our nation, things will turn around.
After a day of contemplation and soul searching, I have decided to reach out to
you about something that has been troubling me.
Our nation has been on the slippery slope for quite some time. If you look
around you, you will find corruption, greed, moral decay and a steady move away
from things that made us great. The principles upon which this nation were
founded are no longer our backbone. However, we can reverse this trend.
2 Chronicles 7:14 states: If my people who are called by My Name will humble
themselves and pray and seek My Face and turn from their wicked ways, then I
will hear from Heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” I am
convinced that we must pray for our Nation and its
leaders and ask for forgiveness. So I ask you to join me in this plea to our
Lord. Would you please ask your friends to pray everyday? If we each ask 25
people to pray once per day for a whole week … can you imagine how many prayers
that would be? 25 to only the 5th power would yield 9,765, 625 prayers lifted up
to our Creator. He will hear us and, in faith, will answer us.
Let me just add a quote by Ronald Reagan: “If we ever forget that we are one
nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under.” I truly believe that
this is why the USA is in the shape we are in today. Most people have forgotten
that we are one nation under God! Let us as Christians stand up and remind
people of this!
