[US Navy Vet]

...for our country's leadership(present and future) on Dec 10th @ 1900 hours.

[MissMagnolia]

George Washington: Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor-- and whereas both Houses of Congress have by their joint Committee requested me to recommend to the People of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness.

Barack Obama: From my family to yours, I’d like to wish you a happy Thanksgiving. Like millions of Americans, Michelle, Malia, Sasha and I will spend the day eating great food, watching a little football, and reflecting on how truly lucky we truly are.

God vs "lucky" ..... I'll be praying with you to "humbly implore the protection & favor of Almighty God."

[STD]

Almighty God, Thank you for loving me before I knew you. Forgive me my sins Lord. I pray for the USA, also for the peace of Jerusalem your city. Help me to walk upright in your righteousness. In Jesus’ Name I pray, Amen & Amen

[Son-Joshua]

I’m in, prayer is the strongest weapon against evil.

[rogue yam]

Good idea.

I’m in.

Please clarify the time.

[Shery]

Sounds good!

[US Navy Vet]

Time doesn’t matter Start @ 1900 East Coast time and work westward. We can have this thing going for maybe 7 or 8 hours(counting HI and AK time)! Canada YOU are cordially invited too(Ottawa need prayer too)!

[exhaustedmomma]

[grey_whiskers]

Thanks US Navy vet.

To the others: non-sectarian *PING* to names I remember from various and sundry Christian-themed threads.

Apologies in advance to those who have developed mutual allergies on other threads.

Let us unite in prayer for the country as suggested...

When does this start? Is it started yet? I will definitely pray, I do already, but it’s nice to know that so many others are at the same time.

My dear Lord, I pray that Your mercy and justice will intervene and save not just our country but the world from the abyss of evil and darkness it is hurtling into. There is no human agency, either separately or combined, that can change our dire situation.

I beg at Your holy feet, please cast Your merciful glance at those who want to become Your faithful servants, so that we may be strengthened and comforted and made wise by Your presence in our hearts, and may those who hate You be vanquished, so that they cannot not torment the innocent any more.

I am the most fallen of souls, and I beg You not because I am worthy, but because You love all souls unconditionally, and are the ocean of kindness, love and wisdom.

[little jeremiah]

I just read the OP more carefully.

Starts Dec. 10. Well, ping me to remind me!

And prayer any time is always good.

[Mrs. Don-o]

I will pray for the protection and moral regeneration of our nation, for sound leadership ("With your justice endow the king, and with your judgment the king's son") and for the allergies and antagonisms among FReepers of Faith to cease, for God's sake!

Amen.

[hocndoc]

I’m praying for our prayer meeting!
Our Nation needs our prayers. Our children need our prayers. Our government leaders need our prayers. May the Lord’s will be done, amen.

[Guenevere]

Please ping me to this!!!!

[Yaelle]

Sign me up.

[NoGrayZone]

Count me in. Just added to my phone calender!

Oh and BTTT!!

[no-to-illegals]

An offer of my hand in friendship and fellowship. We can never pray too often. Please, if a ping list is put together, ping me should I fail to arrive on time. Till then .... Amen and Amen.

[hummingbird]

“Wherever two or more of you have gathered in His Name, there is love.”

I think the 10th will be a wonderful day and I'd like to join in. <><

[hummingbird]

Yes.

[ConfidentConservative]

I’m in..

so is that eastern time?

If so we are talking 1900 take 3 off would make it 1600 for me. (that would be 4pm)

[grey_whiskers]

Update *PING* to pray for the country tonight.

OP called for 7:00 PM, if I remember correctly.

Jim, I include you simply as the founder of the site, so this isn't done behind your back...though I suspect you'll approve anyway.
