Now read the related article by Joseph Farah, Pray Obama fails
His “success” will result in the transformation of the USA into the USSA...
We don’t need to pray for Obama being a failure, he living proof of AA in America.
hell yes I hope he fails.
His “success” means America becomes collectivized, worshippers of graven images of the One, morally indifferent to the unborn, hostile to free speech and free open practice of religion, believers in appeasement as our basic tenet of diplomacy, and socialist or worse.
My prayer has been and will continue to be that Obama would turn to God, choose righteousness and to abide by the Constitution. If he doesn’t, he will be a failure anyway, it’s that simple. It may appear to the left that he is succeeding (socialism, abortion on demand, gays in military, high taxes, gay marriage), but America will fail.
If anything, pray for him to "succeed". To get his radical, idiotic, socialist agenda rammed through. The shock of it may finally wake people up to what they are doing.
This is one of those things that gives Conservatives a bad name, folks.
Pray he fails as President?
Sorry, I can’t do that, and I don’t understand how anyone can be that craven.
I wish him well because he’s my President, and its my country he’s leading for the next 48 months.
I don’t agree with the man on any given political topic. I think he’s a lightweight Chicago hack without a single significant accomplishment beyond winning an election over a man - John McCain - that was a pathetic nominee by the Republican Party.
But pray for him to FAIL?
Aren’t we better than that?
Agree.
If people here do this they are no better than the lefties who live on hate.
If “they” don’t put the blame of Dear Leaders failure on others and have them arrested....
So sorry.
No loggee — no votee.
I’m not going to register on WND to vote, but I will submit my choice:

I will pray for Obama to convert to Christianity (he is currently a secular humanist posing as a Unitarian but claiming to be a Christian with a “healthy skepticism of organized religion”) and see the error of his policies on abortion and socialism. I don’t pray for his failure, I pray for his conversion. I pray for America’s protection, that we are saved by God’s grace from the nation “we deserve” for voting for the liberal Marxist.
Forget the pray for failure stuff, I want this lying bastard to fail on his own!
Agree with you both.
I want him to fail in advancing the Leftist agenda. I don’t want the economy to fail. I don’t want our nation to see harm. I don’t want to see him harmed. I pray for his good health and bad poll numbers.
Paul puts absolutely no qualifications on his admonition to pray for all in authority, including rulers: "I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour" (I Timothy 2:1-3).
Sorry, but I don't see any back door or escape clause there. Certainly the rulers and kings of Paul's day were vastly worse than anyone we ever have had, or now have, in authority here. Paul says a great deal about how you should pray for such people, but it is all positive, in terms of praying for their wisdom, revelation of the Lord, and so on.
He says in Romans 13:1 "Let every soul be sugmect to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. (2) Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, . . . ." and so on.
Folks, I really wish that wasn't in there. But I'm not going to deny that it is, or willfully disobey it because I don't happen to like the "authority."
Yep, and providing good ammo for those that want to call Free Republic a ‘hate site’ among other things.
When you say, “fail”, what exactly do you mean.
If you mean fail at promoting his socialist agenda, then by all means, I say yes.
But I certainly don’t want him to fail when it comes to protecting this country.
Good post.
I would be the FIRST to shout praise for Obama IF he would become a righteous leader—, help restore morality to the US, and protect this country from harm and collapse.
Yeah...I know I dream big
But God IS bigger than my dreams.
