The Old Testament story of Nehemiah and the rebuilding of Jerusalem comes to mind. Israel was held in bondage and Nehemiah, through divine guidance, asked for and received permission from the Babylonian king, Artaxerxes, to rebuild Jeruasalem. After the restoration was complete, which involved a concerted effort from the faithful remnant of Israelites and included the rebuilding of THE HOUSE OF GOD—THE TEMPLE, the prophet Ezra shows up and orders THE BOOK to be brought forth and read publicly for all the faithful to hear. It was a re-dedication of the Israelites to their God, their calling, their land.
America needs just that...a calling of the faithful remnant to work with great dedication toward a restoration of the PEOPLE’S HOUSE (and all of our places of governance), a public reading of THE CONSTITUTION, and a reminder to all of our founding, our calling, our privilege and duty as the most blessed nation on the planet.
Anything less, I am afraid, will fail to turn our country around.
A small group of believers is gathering for just one hour to pray for our country because we believe that prayer is our strongest weapon against the evils facing our country.
DATE: Saturday, July 30, 2011 10:00 am
PLACE: St. Louis Missouri - Jefferson Barracks County Park, near the park entrance, off South Broadway and Kingston. Please, please leave all politics at home.
I challenge the faithful remnant to gather in small groups throughout the land to pray for our country.
Matthew 18: 19 - 20
If two of you agree on earth about anything you ask, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered in my name, I am there among them.”
