Introducing the 40 Days of Prayer

In light of not only the elections, but also the decaying state of this nation, state, county, and town, I felt led of the Lord to bring back and re-institute the 40 Days of Prayer, that Pastor John Hagee started last year. I believe that this is badly needed in the times we now live in, and am asking that all those who truly love the Lord follow suite with this.

40 Days of Prayer Proclamation for America September 28, 2012

Day 1 Target: Apathy Psalm 127:1 Unless the LORD builds the house, they labor in vain who build it; Unless the LORD guards the city, the watchman stays awake in vain. In 1787, Benjamin Franklin told state delegates, "If a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without his notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without his aid? … ‘Except the Lord build the house they labor in vain that build it.’" He then called for daily prayer to keep God in the business of the nation. Prayer: Father God, forgive us for allowing this great nation to slide through our fingers as we sat back in silence, never standing up for our Christian beliefs. We have been selfish and apathetic, caring more about pleasing men than pleasing You. We now humbly come before You, seeking Your unmerited mercy and limitless favor. In order to survive, we must rebuild our nation as one nation under God, serving no other gods but You. With You all things are possible, and it is through the power of the cross that we are able to do all things through Christ Jesus. We ask that your anointing blood flow over our nation, that it cleanse us from all unrighteousness, and that it wash us whiter than snow. May the sacred blood of the cross bring us to a place of renewal and revival, where You are once again pleased with the state of our union. May we do all things with excellence, bringing honor to the one true God, in whom we dwell and have our being. We ask that you saturate our homes with the attitude of gratitude, and renew a right spirit within us. In Jesus’ name we pray, amen.
