Pray that GOD’S WILL be done in our 2016 elections. I voted on Monday, October 24th in ‘early voting’. I voted on my value system and belief. However, I am ever so reminded that I am human, subject to many mistakes.
This election especially, all voters must rely on God to lead and guide them in the directions that His will be done for America.
I challenge our readers to pray about our 2016 elections with a One Minute Prayer Each Night I believe that it’s worth the effort to do it.
Our 2016 elections are important for Christians believers and America. But, from the things I have seen, heard and read, Christians aren’t asking God that His Will to be done.
We all need to be on our knees. Do you believe we can take God at His word? The scripture states that as Christians, ownership of this land and the ability to call upon God to heal it is ours.
We have never been more desperate than now for God to heal our land. He said, “If my people, which are called by my name, shall 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.” 2 Chronicles 7:14.
During WWII, there was an advisor to Churchill who organized a group of people to drop what they were doing every night at a prescribed hour for one minute to collectively pray for the safety of England, its people and peace. This had an amazing effect; the bombing stopped.
I challenge our readers to form a group of people to pray for our country and citizens. We are in need of prayer now more than ever!
Pick a time, stop and spend only one minute praying for the safety of the United States, our troops, and our citizens.
Pray for peace in the world, for wisdom for all elected officials and courage for them to do things God’s Way.
That the Bible (God’s Word) shall remain the basis for the laws governing our land and that Christianity will grow world-wide.
It has been said that if people really understood the full extent of the power we have available through prayer, we might be speechless. Our prayers are the most powerful asset we have.
Remember, you don’t have to tell GOD how Big your storm in life is. Tell the storm how Big your GOD is! Please accept the challenge and pray one minute each night, you pick the time.
Take note of the Co-Incidence of Life: Church has 6 letters so does Mosque. Bible has 5 letters so does Quran. Life has 4 letters so does Dead. Love has 4 letters, so does Hate.
Friend has 7 letters, so does Enemy. Truth has 5 letters, so does Lying. Heal has 4 letters, so does Hurt. Positive has 8 letters, so does Negative. Success has 7 letters, so does Failure.
Above has 5 letters, so does Below. Joy has 3 letters so does Cry. Happy has 5 letters, so does Angry. Right has 5 letters, so does Wrong. Rich has 4 letters, so does Poor.
Pass has 4 letters, so does Fail. Knowledge has 9 letters, so does Ignorance.
Are these all by Coincidence? We should choose wisely, this means that LIFE is like a double-edged sword.
If you think it is your alarm clock that woke you up this morning, try putting it beside a dead body and you will realize that it is the grace of God that woke you up. Learn to be grateful Author Unknown
