John McCain rally in Iowa marked by partisan prayer

“I cannot over emphasize the power of prayer. God DOES hear the prayers of HIS people!”

God does hear our prayers. Many times the way he answers them is to help us find a way to help ourselves.

LA Times rant--Repubs must be meek and mild because they are judged by a different standard. Dems, on the other hand are free and "right" to support late term abortion including killing infants who made it through and are here among us as living breathing little humans, the most vulnerable human life PROTECTED by the Constitution. Dems are free to advocate homosexual life style of a group who have many rich and powerful members/advocates, including sexual orientatiion from K up.

I am so sick of the libelous spin.

Ora et labora

(Pray and work)

This highlights my concern that in the churches, ecclesiastical discipline is not being exercised, leading to the moral and spiritual decay of the churches. Perhaps if we Christians focused our energies more on our own churches than on political parties we might produce better results, and we would certainly have priorities which were more in line with Christ’s own.

I’m praying that we get a leader that we need and not one that America deserves.

And I stand with you on that prayer, in faith believing, in the name of Jesus. May God be merciful. Amen!

PASTOR GIVES MESSAGE TO JOHN McCAIN, TODD & SARAH PALIN

On Tuesday, Sept. 9th, the McCain / Palin Bus came through a little town called, Lebanon, Ohio.
The LORD allowed me to go to the Rally giving them a message that He wanted me to personally deliver.
Sunday Night - a burden hit me that would only shake me to my knees - I prayed and wept for our Nation. Never has my heart been so broken before God. I literally interceded for these wonderful people who do not deserve all the hate against them. The GOD-Haters are going to try everything to stop them, but they will not succeed!
God is not pleased with the “bashing” in the News of this “Anointed” person. He has called her for this time! I promised God that I would pray and hold them up in prayer. I would “listen” out and be mindful of where they were. The following day is important in this time-line...because I didn’t even know until
God spoke to me...
Monday and into Monday Night - the burden of prayer was so heavy that I was literally shaking and could not stop weeping. I didn’t know that they were coming to Ohio. I prayed and walked and wept and walked. I prayed and prayed and wept and prayed...
Tuesday at 2:00 A.M. - God spoke these words to me - “...Go turn the Radio on!” Immediately the the Reporter’s Words were - “McCain & Palin Bus to be in Lebanon later this morning for a 10:00 A.M. Rally!”
Immediately on hearing that news, I heard God again...
God said, “You are to go. You will meet them and give them a message for Me!”
I prayed as an intercessor and went to a place in prayer that I don’t think I’ve ever been...because the LORD had just visited me...and I knew I was on a “Mission.” I had now been up since Sunday NIght...and now it’s Tuesday and I’ve got to go on the “WORD of the LORD.” He sure became My Strength as this unfolds...
I didn’t stop praying until I drove over to the town and parked the car. The News would later report they were expecting 5,000 people and the actual head-count of those who had been scanned was more than 10,000 people.
I simply obeyed...and God actually told me where to stand, who to talk to...and when to be on themove. I had sure learned on the Mission Field, when God wants to open a door, He will do it at the appropriate time. He always has someone to assist...and even those standing beside you may just be an Angel.
I struck up a conversation with an agent on the ground - he simply said, “I can’t allow you to stand here!”Here is where the bus was going to actual pull up to. They had to make a much larger perimeter so the entire area was now being moved back several blocks. The only other thing he told me to do was to go through the metal detector zone and just watch from the back. So, that’s what I did.
Due to sensitivity of the internet...I can’t share much of the story as to what happened next was a definite GOD THING ALL THE WAY. Looking over the shoulders and backs and heads of all those people...I knew it would take a miracle for what GOD told me to do.
As I was standing there, two Boy Scouts came running up my back...literally, they almost knocked me to the ground because they were running so fast behind me...up my back and over to the right. These Boy Scouts were about Junior High Age. Their Scout Leader and several others were behind them...but as the two out front was trying to push through the crowd, saying they were late...the smaller scouts were left in their dust. The Scout Leader who was with a McCain Rep from the State grabbed me and told me bring the other Scouts up front as they try to keep up with the first two that just came through.
I just became the leader of the rest of the Scouts to lead them right up front and center. As the Rep was shouting back at me...to bring the Scouts forward...the people parted just like God parted the Red Sea.
I marched them boys right up front and to the right of the stage as one was looking from the back. When I got there I was fifteen feet from the podium. GOD said, “Stand here, and don’t move from this spot.”
Within five minutes...the bus pulled up and around the other side McCain, Sarah Palin and her husband Todd stepped up and the speeches took off. I was where God placed me...and even Sarah Palin and Todd were standing on my side of the stage. I made eye contact, I gave them thumbs up gestures...and I knew they were just happy to see me standing there. Ha Ha
When they came around the podium and started on the other side, I knew they were coming right toward me, a little lady who stood by me, reached up and told the Rep that they had promised a Picture with her because she was the one who had lost a son in Iraq, recently. The Rep confirmed she would get a pic with them and they would talk to her.
When McCain came to hug her... he immdiately shook my hand and following his moment with her, I shook his hand as he grabbed my hand, now for the second time, and I said, “God wants you to know that I’m praying for you, Sir!” He thanked me and kept smiling. I repeated that phrase to him five times. He grabbed my hands and looked right into my eyes and said, “I won’t make it without prayer. Sir, Thank You for praying for me, and don’t let one day go by that you don’t pray for me. I need all the prayers that I can get. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!”
As he moved to my right, Sarah Palin, came over to my left side...standing over the crowd and then looking at the little lady who had lost the son. It took a moment for her to shake some hands and people were pushing in all around. Sarah came and got on her hands and knees on that side of the stage and hugged that little Mom, telling her, “...it was not in vain.” She promised her support.
It was at this moment Sarah Palin, reached out for me to help her up and as I was assisting her to stand was now face to face with her and GOD said, “Open up your Mouth and I will fill it.”
Here is what came out...
“God wants you to know that you are a present day Esther!”
[She immediately began to cry]!
“God wants to tell you that you are Chosen for such a time as this!”
“You are called, and chosen to be a leader.”
“Don’t lose heart and don’t fear man.”
“The news and nay-sayers and criticizers are going to be very hateful toward you...and in the days ahead they are going to turn up the heat...but do not fear.”
“You are a present day Esther.” You are an Esther. You are an Esther!
“Keep your eyes on GOD and know that He has chosen you to Reign!” “Stay strong...be strong...don’t tire. Don’t be weary in well-doing. Be strong.”
Her husband Todd came over and I told him what I told her. He began to cry.
I emphasized the fact that he was to guard her at this time...and know that
“...she is GOD-CALLED and GOD-ANOINTED.”
“...this is a GOD-THING and your wife is a Present day Esther...she is for God to use at this time...She is an Esther...she is an Esther...she is an Esther.”
“You will be hated...but stand strong...GOD has called both of you to stand!”
“We are praying and I am praying for you...!”
At this moment, McCain came right to where I was finishing talking to Todd and I and I told Mr. McCain exactly what I told Sarah and Todd Palin.
“Mr. McCain, ...they are called of God and she is an Esther.”
“Don’t lose hope and don’t lose heart.”
“We are praying for all of you!”
He shook my hand and with a deep look of understanding what I had just said,
he said, “Thank you for your prayers and support...I really do mean that!”
And he turned and shook more hands...and I watched them as they went through
the crowd.
When I got to my car I sat there for quite a long time...knowing the GOD of the Universe had just used me to deliver a message confirming to Sarah and Todd
to realize they are truly chosen vessels of God.
I wept. I have not stopped praying and crying. My heart is full knowing they had to have all the staging and all the hype and all the crowd...but the GOD of Heaven and Earth...wanted to give them a Divine-God-Appointment!
To God be all the GLORY and HONOR.
I if anyone wants to know IF I BELIEVE GOD CAN SPEAK? My Answer is - Absolutely Yes!
Be praying for me. And MOST OF ALL, Don’t let God always have to do His part alone. You and I are called to Pray and intercede and influence others to Vote!
Stand on the Wall. Make a difference and LIFT JESUS HIGHER ALL OVER THE WORLD!

THIS IS A TRUE STORY! I GIVE GOD ALL THE GLORY AND HONOR.

"At least he didn’t proclaim John McCain is the messiah."....or THE ONE!

I know! Just think if John McCain had said “I am the one we’ve been waiting for.” They’d still be laughing.

And if some nutcase in a religious meeting pronounced John McCain was the messiah, like Farrakhan did BO, we’d never hear the end of that either.

Here’s this reporter at a Republican rally - shocked that there was a prayer for the success of John McCain’s campaign - and mockingly saying the guy must not have gotten the memo. I suppose the reporter expected a bipartisan prayer pronouncing blessings on BO!

He who mocks God will pay a heavy price. I've lived long enough on this earth to see proof of that. God is merciful, but when He's had enough, watch out.

I agree, and here is a mere mortal who not only believes the hype that he’s “the one,” he’s promoted it.

Those who have such a narcissistic view of themselves have nowhere to go but down.

Hey Reading, if you didn’t know, it was a partisan rally, duhhhh!!! What a bunch of maroons these media types are. I was at the rally and oh woe is me, i was not offended.

Those who have such a narcissistic view of themselves have nowhere to go but down.

The last guy that did that (Herod) God sent worms to eat him up right in front of everybody.

Imagine if something like that happened today...right on TV...eeeeewwww

“The last guy that did that (Herod) God sent worms to eat him up right in front of everybody.”

That would be a scary site! My prayer is that people’s eyes will be opened as to what this miserable fraud is, and I believe that will happen in the next few weeks.

Unfortunately, it's not happening with my family in California...they are in the tank for Obama and call Palin a "dingbat." They watch CNN and Meet the Press and call me stupid because I say I don't like Obama's voting record.

When Obama takes everything they own, (part of his "change for America") I'm going to use their own emails about his "vision" against them....something along the lines of "don't blame me, you voted for him!"

I'll start selling bumper stickers and make a mint!
