The people in America today are in somewhat similar situation like it was in Israel when Jehoshaphat was king. They were made aware of what was about to happen to them as a nation. They had a solemn assembly of the men, their wives, and their children as the “stood before the Lord” and corporately turned their face towards Heaven and said,

“We don’t know what to do Lord, but our eyes are upon YOU!”

Heavenly Father, we pray together today in agreement, we have no idea what TO DO about the situations and massive debts that our country is in now. We can humble ourselves and we can pray. We seek Your Face Lord and ask that You would HEAL OUR LAND!  Amen and Amen!

The scriptural reference for Today’s Prayer Alert is  2Chronicles 20:12-22

The Spirit of the Living Lord came to this gathering of people and through the prophet told them. “Do not be afraid nor dismayed – the battle is not yours, but Gods! You will not need to fight in this battle. Position yourselves, stand still and SEE the Salvation of the Lord of Hosts, who is with you all.”

Jehoshaphat bowed his head and his face to the ground and worshipped the Lord. All of the inhabitants that stood with him bowed down in prayer and worshipped the Lord. Then the Levites and the children stood up to PRAISE the Lord God with voices loud and high.

So they rose early in the morning, Jehoshaphat stood and said – Believe in the Lord our God and we shall be established {trust in Him with all your heart}. Believe His Prophets and you shall prosper. After the king had consulted with the people {openly and not behind closed doors} he appointed those who should SING to the Lord and who should Praise the beauty of His Holiness. They sang -

Praise to the Lord, for His Mercies endure forever!  

(2Chronicles 7:6 what they learned in temple worship)

Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a unique perspective about spiritual warfare. We know that the Victory over all our enemies has been won by what Christ Jesus our Lord has already done. We can pray that our President would be like Jehoshaphat and call our nation to a season of PRAY and seek first the Kingdom of God and His right way of doing things. We can witness this nation, singing songs and hymns and spiritual songs, while making melodies in our hearts as we worship the Resurrected Living Lord. We can proclaim with our mouth, what we believe in our heart, that Jesus Christ is seated in Heavenly Places ever living to make intercessions for us and for all the people of the earth.

All things are POSSIBLE, when we only believe that the FAITH that is in my heart will always overcome the doubts that are in my mind.

WE BELIEVE THAT GOD IS . . . . . .  

WE KNOW THAT GOD CAN  . . . . . . . 

and WE PRAY THAT GOD WILL . . . . . . . .  HEAL OUR LAND!

Amen and Amen!
