The “Donald Trump/Mike Pence Prayer Vigil” and “Heroes and Nation Prayer Thread” have combined to form the AMERICA PRAYER VIGIL prayer thread!
Join with fellow FREEPERS to pray for our President and Vice President and for AMERICA: Government, Family, Military, Business, Education, Churches, and the Media.
This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.
1 JOHN 5:14

My prayers always. God bless.
Amen. Thank you again for such a rich presentation.
Amen!...also in schools on test days
Amen.
Today in Great Britain, Prince William, the Duke of Cambridge, read the speech below. It had first been broadcast to the British people in 1944, on the day of the D-Day invasion, by his great-grandfather King George VI, the father of Queen Elizabeth.
I could not help but notice how freely King George mentioned God, repentance and prayer, and encouraged his people to pray. The remarkable thing is that now, 75 years later when Britain has become secularized and decadent, with church attendance lagging behind that of mosque attendance in that immigrant-laden country, William would read these words in public again, and that they were published in the Daily Mail. God is great! May these commemoration events spark a revival in broken Europe and UK.
Four years ago, our Nation and Empire stood alone against an overwhelming enemy, with our backs to the wall. Tested as never before in our history, in God's providence we survived that test; the spirit of the people, resolute, dedicated, burned like a bright flame, lit surely from those unseen fires which nothing can quench.Now once more a supreme test has to be faced. This time, the challenge is not to fight to survive but to fight to win the final victory for the good cause. Once again what is demanded from us all is something more than courage and endurance; we need a revival of spirit, a new unconquerable resolve. After nearly five years of toil and suffering, we must renew that crusading impulse on which we entered the war and met its darkest hour. We and our Allies are sure that our fight is against evil and for a world in which goodness and honour may be the foundation of the life of men in every land.
That we may be worthily matched with this new summons of destiny, I desire solemnly to call my people to prayer and dedication. We are not unmindful of our own shortcomings, past and present. We shall ask not that God may do our will, but that we may be enabled to do the will of God: and we dare to believe that God has used our Nation and Empire as an instrument for fulfilling his high purpose.
I hope that throughout the present crisis of the liberation of Europe there may be offered up earnest, continuous and widespread prayer. We who remain in this land can most effectively enter into the sufferings of subjugated Europe by prayer, whereby we can fortify the determination of our sailors, soldiers and airmen who go forth to set the captives free.
The Queen joins with me in sending you this message. She well understands the anxieties and cares of our womenfolk at this time and she knows that many of them will find, as she does herself, fresh strength and comfort in such waiting upon God. She feels that many women will be glad in this way to keep vigil with their menfolk as they man the ships, storm the beaches and fill the skies.
At this historic moment surely not one of us is too busy, too young or too old to play a part in a nationwide, perchance a worldwide, vigil of prayer as the great crusade sets forth. If from every place of worship, from home and factory, from men and women of all ages and many races and occupations, our intercessions rise, then, please God, both now and in a future not remote, the predictions of an ancient Psalm may be fulfilled: 'The Lord will give strength unto his people: the Lord will give his people the blessing of peace.
Thank you so much for the ping, Albion. I don’t know if I’d had seen that otherwise. God Bless.
All glory to God!! Thank you, AW, for this encouraging news.
Amen! From a daughter of WWII Veterans (Mom and Dad) who instilled in us the love of God, Family, and Country!
Blessings for your prayers and I’m grateful for their service.
May Your Spirit ignite a Great Awakening and revival in our land. And if it be Your will, may America become the nation You intended her to be, because our people put their trust in You, Father.
Amen to your Beautiful, Powerful Prayer, Dear Servant of Jesus Christ.
Praying with you in Heartfelt Agreement.
Blessings, Kitty Mittens, for your faithful prayers and encouragement.
