Many of you may have witnessed the “Restoring Honor” Rally that was held in Washington DC. Over 300,000 people came together in prayer and to raise monies for the “Special Operations Warriors Foundation” which is a group of service men and women that have promised to take care of the education of fallen soldiers’ children. While this is a good and noble cause, we were most impressed by the 240 pastors, priests, rabbis and ministers of the Gospel of Christ Jesus our Lord that took a public STAND together in unity for America!

The moderator spoke about our founding fathers and how the “Black Robe Brigade” inspired the people of the late seventeen hundreds to fight the good fight of FAITH. Pastors lead their congregations by example. These people at the rally called for the restoration of relationships with God Almighty! That we should PRAY for AMERICA! Teach our children about how we pray and the importance of prayer. The rally began and ended with prayer in the public square! As one pastor stated, We are here today in front of a huge reflecting pool. But I see the reflection of Almighty God in the eyes of everyone that is here today!  Everyone that speaks, gives Glory to God!  Everyone that listens, will hear what the Spirit of God is saying!

Father God, we want to THANK YOU for Your Abiding Presence in our lives.  We THANK YOU that our people are once again talking about FAITH – HOPE – CHARITY!  We are reading the words of our founding fathers’ documents and understanding their inspiration was from YOU!

Lord Jesus, we THANK YOU for answering the many prayers for the Spiritual Awakening that is happening in America!  Amen and Amen!

The scriptural reference for Today’s Prayer Alert is  James 1:22-27

But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does.

If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one's religion is useless. Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.

The moderator issued a challenge to us the American People! For the next 40 days and 40 nights we are to seek FIRST the Kingdom of God. We are to get behind God’s Shield of Faith!  According to the last line of our Declaration of Independence:

And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.

Remember the words – a firm reliance on Divine Providence – TRUST GOD!

The greatest commandment is to LOVE GOD and LOVE one another! 

Help us all dear LORD to make it so for such a time as this!  Amen and Amen!
