Pray": Something We Can All Do…

"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 sins and heal their land." ~II Chronicles 7:14

Daily Prayer for America Group

Someone has said if Christians really understood the full extent of the power we have available through prayer, we might be speechless.
Did you know that during WWII there was an advisor to Churchill who organized a group of people who dropped what they were doing every day at a prescribed hour for one minute to collectively pray for the safety of England, its people and peace?
There is now a group of people organizing the same thing here in America. If you would like to participate: Every evening at 9:00 PM Eastern Time (8:00 PM Central) (7:00 PM Mountain) (6:00 PM Pacific), stop whatever you are doing and spend one minute+ praying for the safety of the United States, our troops, our citizens, our freedoms, our way of life and for a return to a Godly nation. {And I might add an unprecedented True revival in Christians to be followed by the outpouring of the Holy Spirit in each one!}
If you know anyone else who would like to participate, please pass this along. Our prayers are the most powerful asset we have. Please forward this to your praying friends. Oh, and if you miss a night, don't panic, just start again the next night.
GOD BLESS AMERICA!

The Praying Women Saved Our Country

We can learn a lot from history. Things happening in Brazil in the 1960's parallels what's happening in our country today. We can learn a lot from the women of that time and what they did to keep their country from communism. I came across a reprint of an article that appeared in the Nov 1964 Reader's Digest entitled "The Country that Saved Itself". (The article is 24 pages and is attached.) 600,000 women marched together praying. One leader of the never counterrevolution was quoted to say, "Without the women we could never have halted Brazil's plunge toward communism." If it worked for them, do you think it could work for us today?

GOD Is Busy

If you don't know GOD, don't make stupid remarks!!!

A United States Marine was attending some college courses between assignments. He had completed missions in Iraq and Afghanistan . One of the courses had a professor who was an avowed atheist, and a member of the ACLU.

One day the professor shocked the class when he came in. He looked to the ceiling and flatly stated, "GOD!! if you are real then I want you to knock me off this platform. I'll give you exactly 15 min." The lecture room fell silent. You could hear a pin drop.

Ten minutes went by and the professor proclaimed, "Here I am GOD, I'm still waiting."

It got down to the last couple of minutes when the Marine got out of his chair, went up to the professor, and cold-cocked him; knocking him off the platform. The professor was out cold. The Marine went back to his seat and sat there, silently.

The other students were shocked and stunned, and sat there looking on in silence. The professor eventually came to, noticeably shaken, looked at the Marine and asked, 'What in the world is the matter with you? 'Why did you do that?' The Marine calmly replied, "GOD was too busy today protecting American soldiers who are protecting your right to say stupid stuff and act like an idiot. So He sent me."

The classroom erupted in cheers!

AMEN!
