FORTY DAYS OF PRAYER Day 8 - October 5, 2012

Target: Men

Proverbs 11:3

The integrity of the upright will guide them, but the perversity of the unfaithful will destroy them.

Founding Father Quote:

"Integrity takes a stronger hold of the human heart than any other virtue. By integrity, I mean a strict consistency between thoughts, words and actions."

- Benjamin Rush, Signer of the Declaration of Independence, "Father of Public Schools Under the Constitution."

Prayer:

Lord Jesus, You have allowed man to be placed in a position of authority over nature, marriage, business, ministry and government. Your word is very clear that integrity is necessary for successful leadership. Shamefully, the average American has been more influenced by modern technology and media outlets than by Your Word. We spend more time entertaining ourselves than we do seeking Your will for our lives. We ask forgiveness for not putting You first, for not seeking those things that honor you before seeking our own pleasure. We ask that you begin to strengthen the moral fiber of our nation as we firmly take a stance on the promises found in Your Word. May You be glorified in our successes, and lifted up by our thoughts, words and deeds. As the spiritual leaders of our homes, may we honor You with our own families first, and may our hunger and thirst for You spread throughout our nation. We praise Your holy name, Amen.

GROWING UP, I REMEMBER HOW IMPORTANT IT WAS TO ALWAYS TELL THE TRUTH, DO WHAT'S RIGHT,Day 8 - October 5, 2012

I REMEMBER GROWING UP, THE IMPORTANCE OF NEVER BEING AFRAID TO STAND UP FOR, AND DO WHAT IS RIGHT, AND TO ALWAYS TELL THE TRUTH. I LEARNED THE IMPORTANCE OF RESPECTING THOSE IN AUTHORITY, AND HONORING FAMILY. NOW I SEE OUR PUBLIC SERVANTS DOING THINGS THAT ARE UNJUST, DISHONORABLE, AND OUTRIGHT SINFUL. WE HAVE TOWNSHIP OFFICIALS HOLDING SECRET MEETINGS AGAINST THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE, SHADY BUSINESS DEALINGS, BUILDING PROJECTS WITH TOWNSHIP MONIES, AND SPENDING LIKE THERE IS NO TOMORROW. WE ALSO HAVE POLICE OFFICIALS, ABUSING THEIR GOD GIVEN AUTHORITY, BY MAKING COMMITTING ILLEGAL ACTS, INCLUDING FALSIFYING GOVERNMENT DOCUMENTS AND COVERING IT UP, MAKING FALSE STATEMENTS AGAINST THOSE WHO EXPOSE THEIR WRONGDOING, DISRESPECTING MINORITIES (PEOPLE OF COLOR AND WOMEN!), AND MUCH MORE!
GUYS WE NEED PEOPLE IN OFFICE WHO RESPECT ALL PEOPLES, ALL LIFE, AND THE LAW. ITS TIME TO HOLD ALL OF OUR OFFICIALS ACCOUNTABLE, AND START DOING THIS NOW. NEXT NOVEMBER, WE HAVE A CHOICE WHEN IT COMES TO OUR LOCAL LEADERS. DO WE KEEP THE SAME CORRUPT EVIL THAT IS IN OFFICE, OR DO WE TAKE A STAND, AND CLEAN THIS TOWNSHIP'S HOUSE, BY VOTING THE RATS OUT. WE NEED TO ELECT PEOPLE TO POSITIONS WITHIN THIS TOWN WHO WILL SHOW HONOR AND INTEGRITY IN EVERY ASPECT OF GOVERNMENT, AND THE TIME IS NOW.
