then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

That is why I think Prop 8* from a faith standpoint is more imporatant than the Presidential Election

Marriage and the Sabbath were GOD’s commandments to Mankind if all repent of there sins restore his Law that Marriage is 1 Man and 1 Woman he will heal there land.

[RoseofTexas]

This evening our church will conduct an election pray night. My husband and I will be there and other countless folk. WE HAVE TO UNITE and seek God for forgiveness and Mercy. We CAN NOT win this election without him. ONLY the Lord can change hearts and minds. We’ve done EVERYTHING humanly possible that can be done. NOW it’s in the hands of the Lord. I just pray come 5th we still have our freedoms and the right to worship the Lord in His house. GOD HELP US!

"Please join with us as God instructed us in 2 Chronicles 7:14," she said, citing the Bible:

We've been doing that on FR for a few weeks now. I'm happy to learn that Christians everywhere are going to be fasting and praying too. IF anyone wants to join our FR group, just contact kingattax and he will add you to his ping list.

First reading for today's Mass -- October 30, 2008. Words in blue are my substitutions.

Reading 1
Eph 6:10-20

Brothers and sisters:
Draw your strength from the Lord and from his mighty power.
Put on the armor of God so that you may be able to stand firm
against the tactics of the Devil.
For our struggle is not with flesh and blood
but with the principalities, with the powers,
with the world rulers of this present darkness,
with the evil spirits in the heavens. Principalities, powers, darkness, evil spirits all refer to fallen angels or to the devil.
Therefore, put on the armor of God, armor=belief
that you may be able to resist on the evil day evil day=election day
and, having done everything, to hold your ground.
So stand fast with your loins girded in truth, while voting
clothed with righteousness as a breastplate,
and your feet shod in readiness for the Gospel of peace.
In all circumstances, hold faith as a shield,
to quench all the flaming arrows of the Evil One. who wants us to be voting for abortion
And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit,
which is the word of God. the Bible

With all prayer and supplication,
pray at every opportunity in the Spirit.
To that end, be watchful with all perseverance and supplication
for all the holy ones and also for me, Pray for the innocent babies
that speech may be given me to open my mouth,
to make known with boldness the mystery of the Gospel
for which I am an ambassador in chains, Are each of us an ambassador as St. Paul was?
so that I may have the courage to speak as I must.

 

 

I was the reader at Daily Mass today and all these thoughts went flashing through my mind as I prepared for proclaiming this readings.  Any thoughts?

When I was trying to set up a time & date with a supervisor for a conference, she pleaded, “Not Nov. 5th. I live in a minority area; I’m afraid of leaving my house after Election Day.”
