What has happened to America? Barack Obama says that we are no longer a Christian nation, but rather a nation of Christians, Muslims, Atheists. Say it is never so. But it is. As a Christian, I have been failing. If you are a Christian and are reading this maybe you have been failing too. God had a purpose for us, to proclaim the Good News, but too often I find myself proclaiming that a football coach should be fired or that a politician should be elected. I am ashamed to say that I spoke on things I shouldn't have and...

To you, O LORD, I lift up my soul; in you I trust, O my God. Do not let me be put to shame, nor let my enemies triumph over me. No one whose hope is in you will ever be put to shame, but they will be put to shame who are treacherous without excuse. Show me your ways, O LORD, teach me your paths; guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long. Remember, O LORD, your great mercy and love, for they...

America has been greatly blessed by God and has stood as the greatest country in the history of the world for over 200 years.

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 7:14If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then...

Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate. I remember the days of old; I meditate on all thy works; I muse on the work of thy hands. I stretch forth my hands unto thee: my soul thirsteth after thee, as a thirsty land. Selah Psalm 143:4-6

Psalms 51:17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and a contrite heart, O God, Thou wilt not despise.

Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice. Look to the LORD and his strength; seek his face always. ... Splendor and majesty are before him; strength and joy in his dwelling place. Ascribe to the LORD, O families of nations, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength. (1 Chronicles 16:10-11, 27-28)

Just as we did with President Bush prior to his debates in the most recent Presidential elections, we are calling all interested Freepers to sign up for a time to pray for Sarah Palin during her debate with Joe Biden. Another chain will be set up later to pray for McCain's next debate with Obama. The way this will work is we would like to have someone praying during each half hour of the day on Wednesday. Times posted are EASTERN STANDARD TIME. If you would like to take a 1/2 hour slot, sign up on this thread and...

Hear, O LORD, and answer me, for I am poor and needy. Guard my life, for I am devoted to you. You are my God; save your servant who trusts in you. Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I call to you all day long. Bring joy to your servant, for to you, O Lord, I lift up my soul. You are forgiving and good, O Lord, abounding in love to all who call to you. (Psalm 86:1-5)

But the noble man makes noble plans, and by noble deeds he stands. (Isaiah 32:8)

This is what the LORD says— your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: "I am the LORD your God, who teaches you what is best for you, who directs you in the way you should go.

But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. Titus 3:4

This iconic image is from the Battle of Ia Drang. The grimy, unshaven, soldier, bayonet fixed, jaw set in fierce determination, is Lt. Richard Rescorla, a platoon leader with Bravo Company, 2nd Battalion, 7th Cavalry Regiment, 1st Air Cav Division. It was taken on the morning of November 16th, 1965, the third day of the battle as he leads a bayonet charge forward. Although most of the soldiers under his command were new to war, he was not. And this would not be the last time he would bravely lead others in a crisis. Cyril Richard Rescorla was born in...

Isaiah 54: 17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.

Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy on me, for in you my soul takes refuge. I will take refuge in the shadow of your wings until the disaster has passed.

For you are their glory and strength, and by your favor you exalt our horn. (Psalm 89:13-17)

I thought I'd start a daily thread as a reminder for us all to keep Gov Sarah Palin and her family in their prayers. After all she is looking like the answer to all of ours. The onslaught that has begun against Gov Palin and her family by the democrats and their willing accomplices in the MSM will be ruthless, relentless, and totally undeserving. I believe Mrs Palin is a girl of grit and can hold her own yet I pray that her family can sustain the spotlight, scrutiny, and bruises that are to come. I found it unbelievable today...

Don't let them Say, "Aha! Our Dearest Wish Against him will Soon be Fulfilled! At Last we have him!" May those who Rejoice at my Troubles be Humiliated and Disgraced. May those who Magnify themselves over me be Covered with Shame and Dishonor. But Give Great Joy to those who Favor my Vindication. Let them Shout with Delight, "Great is the Lord, Who Enjoys Helping...

Dear FReepers, I received the following e-mail from my Uncle Frank, regarding his grandaughter (my cousin) Fiamma. * * * This e-mail is very serious! I am hoping for a Prayer Ladder. We need a Miracle. My granddaughter had a cancer removed from the colon 2 years ago. She is now 22 years old and has been informed that the cancer has spread and she must have another operation and more chemotherapy. Fiamma is scheduled for surgery Tuesday August 26th at 12:00 noon, Omaha time. I’m asking all of you who can to pray for Fiamma, especially at that time,...

He will Make your Righteousness Radiate Like the Dawn, And the Justice of your Cause will Shine Like the Noonday Sun.

This is what the LORD says: "Let not the wise man boast of his wisdom or the strong man boast of his strength or the rich man boast of his riches, but let him who boasts boast about this: that he understands and knows me, that I am the LORD, who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight," declares the LORD.

You Chart the Path Ahead of me, and Tell me when to Stop and Rest. Every Moment, You Know where I am. You Know what I am Going to Say before I Even Say it. You Both Precede and Follow me, And Place Your Hand of Blessing on my Head.

It is the Sovereign LORD who helps me. Who is he that will condemn me? They will all wear out like a garment; the moths will eat them up. Who among you fears the LORD and obeys the word of his servant? Let him who walks in the dark, who has no light, trust in the name of the LORD and rely on his God. (Isaiah 50:9-10)
