Pray it forward.

Prayer Needed for our country!

Some folks passing through Texarkana (TX) last week noted signs in
people's yards that said, " America, pray - our only hope" with 2 Chron.7:14
underneath. We certainly need God's help!

I have no idea who started this, but I certainly agree with this e-mail.
I heard a preacher who said if we pray for our nation and it is in
God's will that things will turn around.

I have decided to reach out to my friends and relatives and ask you
to do something that has been troubling me for a long time.

Our nation is/has been on the slippery slope for a long time.
If you look around you will find corruption, greed, moral decay, and a steady move
away from the things that made us great. The principles upon which this
nation was founded are no longer our backbone.
However, we can reverse this trend.

2 Chron. 7:14 in God's word 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 send this to people in your address book (send it to all of them)
Ask them to pray EVERYDAY.

25 to only the 5th power is 9,765,625 people....
IMAGINE if each person reaches TEN others...or all TWENTY FIVE!

If you do and they comply, we will lift up millions and millions of prayers a day to our Creator.
He will hear us and in faith will answer.


Let me just add a quote from Ronald Reagan

"If we ever forget that we are one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under."
I truly believe this is why the United States of America is in the shape it is in today.
Most people have forgotten that we are one nation under God!
Let us, as Judeo Christians, stand up and remind people of this. ~

Have a blessed day!

Take care, be safe.
God Bless.
Good night.
Chris - Alaska


Pray it forward.

Great post! I have prayed here lately for God to turn the U.S.A. back to what it once was. A strong Christian nation.

Thanks A.H.,

Wondering, if you could do me a favor.

Could you take a couple of pictures of these signs.
And, send them to me.

I would like to get my hands on one.
Or, at least, have one made up.
And post it at my business, along with my other ones!

I am NOT bashful about my faith, or what folks might think.
If they don't like it, they can drive 40 miles one way or 100 the other!
I fly the Israeli flag, under the Stars & Stripes.


Thanks,

Chris - Alaska

Thanks for this thread...

...I do enjoy reading about people of faith.

It's great to be good...

...and even better to be good for something.

Our daily prayers include expressions of gratitude to God for His abundant blessing...

...and humble acknowledgment of our need for His indispensable assistance in what is before us.
