WELCOME THE KING OF GLORY INTO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!
2020 National Day of Prayer
“For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, As the waters cover the sea.”
Habakkuk 2:14
Today, Thursday, May 7th, we of the 24/7 NSPC family will join Americans across our nation who will be taking time out of their daily schedules to intercede on behalf of their families, communities, their nation, and their leaders. Each year, Christians have gathered from across this nation at more than 60,000 local community events to pray together for America on the National Day of Prayer (NDP). It is an annual prayer initiative that dates back to “a call for prayer” issued in a joint resolution of Congress and signed into law by President Harry S.Truman in 1952. We observe our NDP publicly on the first Thursday in May every year.
This is a special day for our nation, one which will commence with local, state, and national observances as the first rays of sunlight (Son LIGHT) hits the East Coast of the United States in Maine! Then, as the sun (Son) traverses this continent, in some places, people who are no longer sequestered will be having sunrise services, noon prayer assemblies, evening intercessory gatherings…all filled with continuous praise, worship and fervent prayer for our nation. When the golden orb finally sets, well beyond the horizon of our Westernmost state of Hawaii, the Lord will have been worshipped and adored by millions throughout this day! What a blessing for our 24/7 family to be part of this! At any time we want to pause and pray, we have that opportunity today…as we pray into every hour of this 24 hours on our National Day of Prayer!
We pray:
- That this year’s National Day of Prayer will be the most powerful ever, and that our nation and our people will be blessed as we share the love of God with one another from border to border, coast to coast! Pray.
Let us join the worshiping throng, and sing together:
Holy is the Lord
We stand and lift up our hands, for the joy of the Lord is our strength.
We bow down and worship Him now, how great, how awesome is He!
And together we sing:
Holy is the Lord God Almighty! The earth is filled with His glory!
Holy is the Lord God Almighty! The earth is filled with His glory! The earth is filled with His glory!
And it’s rising up all around, it’s the anthem of the Lord’s renown!
It’s rising up all around, it’s the anthem of the Lord’s renown!
Together we sing…everyone sing:
Holy is the Lord God Almighty! The earth is filled with His glory!
Holy is the Lord God Almighty! The earth is filled with His glory! The earth is filled with His glory!
Holy is the Lord God Almighty! The earth is filled with His glory!
Holy is the Lord God Almighty! The earth is filled with His glory! The earth is filled with His glory!
We pray:
- That today will be the most excellent and glorious offering that You have ever received from our nation, Lord! Be glorified in Your people, and come and take Your rightful place, Jesus, and be enthroned everywhere in our nation as the KING of GLORY! We welcome You…here and now! Pray.
Each year, our NDP has a theme and an undergirding scripture.
- The 2020 National Day of Prayer theme is “Pray God’s Glory Across the Earth.” Pray.
- The verse is Habakkuk 2:14 “For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.” Pray.
Although this year’s National Day of Prayer is not going to be canceled or postponed due to the coronavirus crisis or the resulting economic shutdown, it will look very different from years past. Virtual events will be held in communities across the nation and the Body of Christ will connect, in spite of any obstacles!
The National Day of Prayer Task Force President, Kathy Branzell said: “Unprecedented times call for unprecedented prayer! This year’s ‘virtual’ National Day of Prayer Observance may have more prayer – and more ‘pray-ers’ than ever before!”
Our NDP observance unites Americans across all socio-economic, political, and ethnic backgrounds as they come together to pray for our nation. Even though people can’t meet in large groups in person, prayers in the pandemic are more relevant than ever. This year, let’s take the opportunity to reach out to friends, family, neighbors, inviting them to join us on the 24/7 NSPC, or to ZOOM in on a national service, or join in with a local Facebook live event… listening as the worship ascends.
May this be a glorious day to look back on in years to come!
We pray:
- What an opportunity we have been given to use the technology available to flood the atmosphere with prayer and worship, acknowledging God as our Designer, our Creator, our Lord and King! Let us take time to do that…right now! Pray.
The Presidential Prayer Team has published these following prayer points! Let us use them as we pray for our President, our people and our nation!
Our cry, today, O God, is for America to get on its knees, to long for You with earnest hearts, to know the quenching of thirst that only You can bring. Prepare our hearts and the hearts of thousands for the Holy Spirit to rain down upon us with overwhelming love on this National Day of Prayer.
“You, God, are my God, earnestly I seek You; I thirst for You; my whole being longs for You, in a dry and parched land where there is no water.”
Psalm 63:1
Pray.
Lord, as we come together on this National Day of Prayer, we ask that You would strengthen our people. Let them experience a nearness to You, so that they might comprehend Your love and that hearts that do not yet know You would be drawn to You because of the sweetness of all who have assembled to pray.
“For this reason, I kneel before the Father. I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being.”
Ephesians 6:14,16
Pray.
Lord Jesus, today we sing, “We want to know You more. Deep within our hearts, we want to know You….to feel Your heart and know Your mind. Stir us and give us a glimpse of You today. We pray this especially for our President!
“My heart says of You, ‘Seek His face! Your face, Lord, I will seek.’”
Psalm 27:8
Pray.
We love Your Presence, O Lord. Knowing that Your Hand is upon us to protect and to guide us each day is such a blessing. Keep us close to You, and guard and protect our President and Vice President every hour, day and night!
“Let Your hand be with me and keep me from harm.”
1 Chronicles 4:10
Pray.
Heavenly Father, purge our sins, make us white as snow. We give you our hearts, holding nothing back. Keep us clean and pure, so we can share Your love with others, and keep our President in tune with Your Holy Spirit always!
“Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.”
Psalm 51:10
Pray.
Dear Jesus, You have bought each of us with a price; we are not our own any longer; we belong to You. Keep our nation pointed in the right direction, and lead our President forward. Let us follow him as he follows You!
“I know, Lord, that our lives are not our own. We are not able to plan our own course. So correct me, Lord, but please be gentle.”
Jeremiah 10:23-24
Pray.
Lord God, show us the way to a truly secure and successful America. Bless our President and give him VICTORY in every arena. Let us serve you together in the end times harvest, bringing glory to You and Your Kingdom as we wait for the return of Jesus!
“Save us, we pray, O Lord! O Lord, we pray, give us success.”
Psalm 118:25
Pray.
Lord, thank You for this glorious day, for all who participated in prayer across this nation, and for the answers to all our prayers! May what has taken place today be a foundation for the days to come, as You receive honor and glory from Your people, as we partner with You to see our nation transformed… for the King and His Kingdom! AMEN!
