Let us all join together through the final days of this election, and particularly on Novemenr 3rd, in the midst of our hard work and individual prayers, and invoke God's Hand to be revealed in this election cycle...recognizing, as did Patrick Henry over 230 years ago that God is indeed involved in the affairs of man and nations, and as the Holy Scriptures themselves testify that He will indeed bless us if we turn to Him. "We shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations, and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us. The battle, sir, is not to the strong alone; it is to the vigilant, the active, the brave. " - Patrick Henry, March 23, 1775I submit, that God in Heaven has already begun raising up and bringing forth such friends and blessings. Sarah Palin and Joe the Plumber have been brought forth out of relative obscurity and are helping make a large difference, going across the width and breadth of this nation generating large crowds of enthused people of all creeds, faiths, races, and stripes who hold fast to the traditional American values and prinicples that have made this nation what she is, and helped preserve her.
GOVERNOR SARAH PALIN JOE THE PLUMBER Many others, less known or visible to us are doing the same. We must stand up and do our part in this election cycle, we must spread the word and, with reasoned dialog and a prayerful heart, educate all we know and come in contact with within our own spheres of influence regarding the import of this election and the unmitigated anti-Americanism, socialism, marxism, and assault on American values represented by the Obama campaign. We must then ask each of those we touch, to do the same. Time is short, but if we are faithful, humble, and seek God's assistance in this, with His help we can succeed. So, in this regard, realizing that I personally am no one of great import, but realizing that through those I know, and through those they know (and so forth and so on) that we can accomplish great good, I am encouraging people across the entire nation, to join together as all Judaeo-Christian faiths with those seeking the same, in the midst of our hard work, and in the midst of our individual prayers, to make November 3rd a day of fasting and prayer for our entire nation. I believe with all my heart that there are enough sound minded people in this nation to make a difference if we can get them out...and we need help, we need His help, in finding them and touching their hearts. This is my prayer: Father in Heaven, please recognize our hard work and worthy efforts to defend the liberty and goodness of this land.In so doing, we can all join with millions, who are individually doing the same and raise this petition to our Father in Heaven, whose merciful Hand can help us in this hour of need.
MEET THE PEOPLE WHO WILL DEFEAT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA |
FYI...for your consideration and faith.
Amen and amen.
Pray not for any particular outcome, but that people will open their eyes, use the wits God gave them to think solemnly about where we may be headed, and lead us to better days.
( And if you can, take some friends and neighbors to the polls, to vote as well. )
PING your entire list to.
Forward it outside FR to all you know too. I have found and expreienced email chains working wonders and miracles. They can reach far and wide in a day or two, and they cannot be controlled or spun by the MSM or the left.
Exactly...we need to pray like everything depends on God in Heacen (it does), and then work hard right through the crisis like it depends on us (because He does and will use us as instruments in His hands).
Amen Jeff Head... AMEN..
Also Prayer and FASTING today.... November 2nd!!!!!

A Prayer for our Nation as we Prepare to Elect our Leaders
For nine days, from October 27 to Election Day (November 4), Priests for Life calls upon believers to participate in the Election Novena by saying the following prayer each day:
O God, we acknowledge you today as Lord,
Not only of individuals, but of nations and governments.
We thank you for the privilege
Of being able to organize ourselves politically
And of knowing that political loyalty
Does not have to mean disloyalty to you.
We thank you for your law,
Which our Founding Fathers acknowledged
And recognized as higher than any human law.
We thank you for the opportunity that this election year puts before us,
To exercise our solemn duty not only to vote,
But to influence countless others to vote,
And to vote correctly.
Lord, we pray that your people may be awakened.
Let them realize that while politics is not their salvation,
Their response to you requires that they be politically active.
Awaken your people to know that they are not called to be a sect fleeing the world
But rather a community of faith renewing the world.
Awaken them that the same hands lifted up to you in prayer
Are the hands that pull the lever in the voting booth;
That the same eyes that read your Word
Are the eyes that read the names on the ballot,
And that they do not cease to be Christians
When they enter the voting booth.
Awaken your people to a commitment to justice
To the sanctity of marriage and the family,
To the dignity of each individual human life,
And to the truth that human rights begin when human lives begin,
And not one moment later.
Lord, we rejoice today
That we are citizens of your kingdom.
May that make us all the more committed
To being faithful citizens on earth.
We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Is this posted in the religion forum? When everyone gets home from church, they’ll see it.
we need to repent, and undo the damage of Roe vs. Wade.
We’re with you. Many, many people are praying.
Just one day? Every day should be a day of prayer for our nation.
Prayers up! Eagles up!
Can we ping people over there to come here and work the thread?
Amen! Thanks for the big BUMP!
Here's the email I sent out to muy email list:
I rarely send out emails to my entire email list, but these times warrant such correspondence if any time ever did.Sincerely, and in Christ, Jeff Head Idaho, USA
We face an election of monumental choice for our entire nation. The stakes for ourselves, and particularly for our children and their children could not be higher as abject and direct socialism and Marxism, a hardening of liberal lines in the horrific practice of abortion, and tremendous erosion on the fight to preserve the sanctity of marriage between a man and a woman are close to being elected to power and established in law in our beloved Republic.
In this regard, realizing that I personally am no one of great import, but realizing that through those I know, and through those they know (and so forth and so on) that we can accomplish great good, I am encouraging people across the entire nation, to join together as all Judaeo-Christian faiths with those seeking the same, in the midst of our hard work, and in the midst of our individual prayers, to make November 3rd a day of fasting and prayer for our entire nation.
I believe with all my heart that there are enough sound minded people in this nation to make a difference if we can get them out...and we need help, we need His help, in finding them and touching their hearts.
This is my own prayer:"Father in Heaven, please recognize our hard work and worthy efforts to defend the liberty and goodness of this land.If you are so inclined, please forward this email and the link below describing this activity and the reasons for it in more detail to your email lists.
"Please forgive us of our shortcomings and our lack of vigilance from time to time as evil has grown amongst us. Most of all, dear Father in Heaven, forgive us for not doing more, for not being even more active in standing against the slaughter of thy innocents by the forces of evil and death who have gained great power in our land to effect such evil...though we do recognize Thy Hand and the worthy work of millions as the tide has all too slowly turned against this evil.
"Please bless those thou hast brought forth at this critical juncture in our nation's history, a nation long blessed by Thee as a bastion of liberty for the world, to both spread freedom, to spread thy Word, and to defend liberty throughout the world, despite our weaknesses. Give us the strength and the faith to help these friends turn back the current incarnation that has risen amongst us which would support evil in our land.
"Bless us dear Father in Heaven with more such friends and allies that Thou callest forth, that we may jointly, together with Thy aid, put aside corruption, evil, and those who would bring abject compulsion, collectivism, and the destruction of individual choice and freedom in our land.
"Recognize, fortify, and magnify our best efforts to join with Thee in this great work as we jointly fast and pray on November 3rd for Thy Hand to be revealed, in Jesus Name, Amen."
