ARE YOU PRAYING?

ARE YOU PRAYING?

America, whatever your thoughts and feelings about our recent presidential election and the inaugural ceremony that is set for Friday, January 20, 2017, it is mission critical that we collectively pray for our nation, for our new President, for our incoming Vice President, for every member of the Cabinet and White House Staff, for both Houses of Congress, for our Supreme Court, for every Governor and State Legislature, and also for Kings, Queens, Prime Ministers and Heads of State in every nation across the globe so “that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.” (I Timothy 2:2, NKJV)

An age-old pronouncement from Above is absolutely applicable for our nation and our generation: “If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” (II Chronicles 7:14)

While it is ever so tempting to play the blame game, i.e. to assign responsibility for our national challenges to particular groups or individuals (past and present), we must rise above the political noise and divisive rhetoric, which only serve as a distraction from our common purpose and destiny.

Let’s agree to disagree, while maintaining our moral compass and safeguarding our civility.  Never forget: GOD is on the throne and He, alone, moderates, modifies and measures the attitudes and actions of all.

Always pray for the USA.  Meanwhile, “have faith in God.” (Mark 11:22)

Sisters and brothers, be continually blessed, and please (above all else) MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY TO MEET OUR SOON COMING KING.  Maranatha!
