Week-long prayer vigil sign-up for Election 2004

Dear Friends! God is good! On Free Republic, we have prayed through two debates and have witnessed the Lord answering our prayers each time. Now, we have the opportunity to do the truly important work of praying through the election itself. With the constant stories of voter fraud, lies in the media, silence of the media, and current events all affecting how people feel about this election-- we need now, more than ever to not let up but to see this battle through. It has often been said that God's army marches on its knees, and this is so true. I personally (and I know I'm not alone) believe that one of the reasons that this battle has been so fierce has been because it isn't just a battle of political preference; rather, it is a spiritual battle against the forces of good and the forces of evil. Our President is not perfect, but he acknowledges God and relies on Him daily. John Kerry mentions God in speeches, but his stated beliefs and actions bear no fruit of a personal relationship or Godly influence. Evil will try to destroy freedom, for America and abroad. Evil will lie and distort the record. Evil will divide and demean. Evil will not value the life of the most innocent. Evil must not win.

Please join with us in signing up for an hour of prayer during the week prior to the election. We are organizing and entire week of 24 hour a day 7 day prayer so that evil will not win. God has blessed us as a people and He has blessed this nation. But, if we truly wish to see this republic remain free, then it is incumbent upon us to make sure that we do not lose faith or hope in the Lord's abilities, that we persevere, and that we yield ourselves to the knowledge that prayer is the most important thing we can do - and having done all, we can stand.

May God bless the Free Republic & May God bless President George W. Bush!

If your still doing this, you can sign me up for 9:00am. Course I'll pray in between those times too. i agree, its important that we do this. Personally, I believed Jerry Faldwell's statement about Bush being chosen by God. I didn't think it was kookish at all.

[Polyxene]

You said that beautifully! My sentiments exactly! I pray for President Bush and our country throughout the day, every day. God Bless and keep President Bush!

[PleaseNoMore]

There are so many people who do not realize that this is not just another election, even Christians. So much is at stake here. I will be praying throughout as I have been but if you see a need for a particular time slot to be filled let me know.

[LeftyCrusher]

I'll be praying on and off every day, but sign me up for 7 am, 10/29

[Coldwater Creek]

I will pray from 5am to 6am central every day. I believe that this prayer thread has changed me as much as the elction. Is'nt that what it is really all about? A big thanks to all.

[Coldwater Creek]

I am not a big fan of Jerry Falwell, but I agree that President Bush is the man for "Such a time as this". I believe that the last election was Devine intervention. I believe that this one will be too. We need to pray that God will give this country another chance. I believe that this election is close because God wants his people to humble themselves and call on His name. I have a real peace that everything is going to be just fine. BTW I'm a pessimist by nature.

[LadyPilgrim]

Please put me in for 6 am!
Praise the Lord for His mercy!!!

[LadyPilgrim]

I suppose I should say central time. I probably need to pray for 2 hours anyway.

But let's say 6 AM central time. I didn't specify in the other post! ;-)!

I pray God's Blessing upon all of us.

God Bless George W. Bush!

Thank-you Blogger!!!

Prayers up.

[pollywog]

I would think this to be very powerful. I will be fasting and praying. Something satan just does NOT want.......neither does KERRY!!!

[pollywog]

Sorry, I can do the entire week also, at the same time frame. I also think that fasting and praying the last 72 hours is needed, and you can count on that.

[I'm ALL Right!]

I think even juice-fasting, or fasting from something you do often, that would be hard to give up (media, smoking, meat or some other main course) would be good. I've found juice fasting to be effective and difficult enough to make me pray, but not excruciating, but you have to prepare a bit by eating light, mainly fruit and veggies for a couple of days prior to doing it. That's why I mentioned it this early, as it may take some time to decide and prepare for some people.

I'll bring it back up about a week prior to the debate.

Will be traveling but will pray daily several times a day. God bless everyone. Remember the 2000 election--the left tried its utmost but did not prevail. I bit my nails but had a friend who remained serene throughout saying Bush would ultimately win. Let us pray this time that evil will be routed and we do not have to relive 2000.

2 Chronicles 7:14
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

[Alamo-Girl]

Magnificient Scripture choice. Thank you!

[Miss Marple]

I will join kittymittens at 2PM Central, which is the time I am pretty much guaranteed of not being bothered by phone calls, plus when I am babysitting my granddaughter it is when she takes her nap.

[Miss Marple]

Oh...and I meant for the entire week.

[CarolinaGOP]

Please add me to the 6 a.m. slot as well.
