May 7, 2009

While May 7th is the 30 anniversary of my senior class' Skip Day...more importantly, it is the National Day of Prayer.

Please pray for our country...I want so much for the USA to serve the Lord...I want the USA to be a sheep nation, not a goat nation...

2009 Prayer for Our Nation
by Beth Moore, Honorary Chairman



Father in Heaven,

We lift our eyes toward Your Throne, where You reign in righteousness.

Your Word assures us that when Your people cry out in sincerity and humility, You will never turn a deaf ear to us.

We call upon You now, seeking Your forgiveness and favor.

Look over this fevered landscape and heal us, Lord.

Drop knees to the floor and raise eyes to the sky, for we know where our help comes from.

Unite these States again in devotion to You, and blur every dividing line.

Do not give us over to our sins. Give us, instead, over to passionate prayer that moves Your heart.

“May Your unfailing love rest upon us, O Lord, even as we put our hope in You.”

In the Name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ

Amen

I am so thankful for the hope we have in the Lord for our country, for revival, for a return to Him. Hear our desperate pleas, Lord!

How in the world did you remember May 7th as your senior skip day. Good gravy woman...you have a memory or what.

Did I hear that Obama is not going to recognize it like the past administration has?
