America has been greatly blessed by God and has stood as the greatest country in the history of the world for over 200 years. America has many foreign and domestic enemies that are seeking her destruction.
This thread is a daily call and reminder for people of faith who believe in God and in the power of prayer to make a commitment to intercede for America at this critical time in her history
2 Chronicles 7:14
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 will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
2 Samuel 24:25
David built an altar to the LORD there and sacrificed burnt offerings and fellowship offerings. Then the LORD answered prayer in behalf of the land, and the plague on Israel was stopped.
if we stay faithful in prayer and intercede for america as king david interceded for israel, we will see God's answer.
May God bless America

"I looked for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found none.
Lord, give us strength and a desire in our hearts to stand in the gap for america and humbly pray without ceasing for Your mercy and for Your will to be done in our land...we ask in Jesus' Name...amen
Lord, there are those in our congress and government who serve and support evil and are working for the destruction of america. we ask You to remove them and replace them with godly people who will do what is right and truly serve the people. we thank You in Jesus’ Name...amen
Jehovah Rohi, You are our Sheperd. We can't make it without You. We need You, Lord, to guide our way. When we are tired and feel like giving up, You refresh our spirits, so we can keep going.
To me, this is one of the most beautiful verses of Scripture. It is what we need, for times such as these. It is in this Psalm that we meet Jehovah-Rohi, the Lord my shepherd.
Psalm 23
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name sake;
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For you are with me;
Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup runs over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life;
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
There are times when we just need to dwell on what Jehovah Rohi is saying to us in these verses.
No matter what is going on in our lives, God is bigger, and He is able to handle all of our problems, if we just release them to Him.
Father, we know that You love us, in spite of what is going on in America. You see the awful mess we are in with the evil men and women who are in our government and our courts. At times we feel overwhelmed by the magnitude of the problems facing America/Americans. We know we're going down. It's obvious that You have withdrawn Your Hand of protection, and we know that it's deserved. We've all sinned before You and we are so sorry. Please forgive us, and strengthen us so we can be warriors for the End Time's battles that are coming up. We pray to the Lord of the Harvest that He will send workers to help us pray for America. Help us Lord that we don't grow weary. We know that this too shall pass, but when we're in the middle of problems it can be very disheartening.
Abba, we ask that You would remove the evil men and women from our government and our courts, and please don't let Obama or any more Democrats be elected. Expose their evil deeds and voter fraud. Reveal the illegal voters so they can't vote. Please restore our election system to one that is honest and fair.
We ask You to protect our men and women who are serving in our military, and we ask You to protect the first responders. They are all brave men and women, and we ask you to Bless them all for their dedication and love for America/Americans. Please be with their families and protect them while their loved ones are away. Please be with the ones who have been injured, and help them to adjust to the life changing injuries they have received. Please be Merciful and heal them. We ask You to comfort the families who have lost loved ones. Please comfort them and give them strength in their grief.
We pray for our loved ones and ask You to forgive them of their sins too. We all have loved ones who are not Saved, and that hurts us, so we ask You to send workers who can witness to them. People they will listen to, so they will understand what we've tried to tell them, leading to their Salvation. Father, we ask these things in the Name of Jesus, and we thank You for hearing our prayers. We ask You to act on them with favor. Amen!
I wonder if porn addiction has anything to do with America’s demise?
