We sing: Silent Night
Silent night, Holy night, All is calm, all is bright. Round yon virgin, mother and Child,
Holy infant, so tender and mild. Sleep in heavenly peace, Sleep in heavenly peace.
Silent night, Holy night, Shepherds quake, at the sight. Glories stream from heaven above.
Heavenly hosts sing HalleluYah! Christ the Savior is born, Christ the Savior is born.
Silent night, Holy night Son of God, Love’s pure light. Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace. Jesus, Lord at Thy birth, Jesus, Lord at Thy birth.

The key assignment for the 24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call is to intercede hourly
for the safety and security of our duly elected President, Donald John Trump,
and to pray for that which pertains to our nation!
We pray for his protection, for our First Lady, Melania, and their marriage
and for all the members of their family.
We cover them all with the Blood of Jesus.
We ask that in every situation and decision, President Trump will be led by the Holy Spirit!
Pray.
Strategic Focus for Friday
WELCOME THE KING OF GLORY INTO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!
The Restoration of the American Republic – Part 44
Now there were shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night.
And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them,
and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid.
Then the angel said to them,
“Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people.
For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger.”
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying:
“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men!”
So it was, when the angels had gone away from them into heaven,
that the shepherds said to one another, “Let us now go to Bethlehem
and see this thing that has come to pass, which the Lord has made known to us.”
And they came with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the Babe lying in a manger.
Luke 2:8-16
On Christmas Eve, we commemorate the events that took place over 2,000 years ago, which heralded the dawning of a real New Age for humanity. A simple stable in Bethlehem was the scene of the nativity of Jesus Christ, the Messiah, our long-awaited Redeemer. What took place on that night, was the “overture” to the heavenly “symphony” of the LIFE OF CHRIST! We rejoice together in that wondrous event! Pray.
“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son,
that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”
When we read these familiar words from our opening verse, we realize that the innocent babe, Who lay so helplessly in that manger on Christmas night, would one day be a babe no more. He would grow up to fulfill the purpose for which He had come, and through His cross, death, and resurrection, achieve the ultimate VICTORY…the defeat of sin and death, and the reopening of heavens gates to those who would believe in Him! Our tiny newborn King is the King of kings and the Lord of lords…and He shall reign forever and ever! Pray.
Charlie Brown of “PEANUTS” fame is quoted as saying:
“It’s not what’s under the Christmas tree that matters…it’s who’s around it! “
Christmas is about God’s love demonstrated as He kept His promise to send a Deliverer to His people. As we celebrate together, it is our JOY, our privilege, and our honor to herald the coming of the newborn King, especially to our truly “significant” others…family, and friends. We are sent, like the angels to the shepherds and them, the shepherds to the people, to proclaim His coming, thus sharing the true meaning of Christmas…Jesus’ birth!
We pray:
- If we have been hesitant to speak out before, we will make the decision that this year, we will not be silent! Pray.
- That we will embrace a holy boldness which will enable us to share freely about the true meaning of Christmas with all those we encounter, especially family and friends! Pray.
In many households, a birthday cake is prepared, and “Happy Birthday” is sung to Baby Jesus! There is a precious children’s song about that: Try singing it with your loved ones; perhaps you’ll start a new tradition!
Happy birthday, Jesus! I’m so glad it’s Christmas.
All the tinsel and lights and the presents are nice, but the real gift is You
Happy birthday, Jesus! I’m so glad it’s Christmas.
All the carols and bells make the holiday swell and it’s all about You
Happy birthday, Jesus! Jesus. I love You!
Pray.
Our brother, Eddie Smith (TX) asks us a question which can help us prepare our hearts to receive Him anew. Let us take time to reflect on what this means to us as Christians, then take turns sharing and praying into it!
“Christmas (Jesus’ birthday party) is becoming less about Him by the year.
How would you feel if it were your birthday and the celebrants, whom you love,
refused to refer to you by name because they didn’t want to offend people who have never met you, and some who’d rather not meet you?”
*** Take ample time to allow sharing by any of the participants who desire to, then pray into what is spoken!
Conclude this sacred time with corporate worship of our newborn King – “Emmanuel – God with us!”
O come, all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant, O come ye, O come ye to Bethlehem.
Come and behold Him, born the King of Angels! O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him, O come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord.
Pray.
The first Noel the angels did say, was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay.
In fields where they lay, keeping their sheep, on a cold winter’s night that was so deep!
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel, born is the King of Israel!
Pray.
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed, the little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head,
The stars in the bright sky looked down where He lay, the little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay.
Pray.
Silent night, Holy night, all is calm, all is bright, ‘round yon virgin, mother and Child,
Holy infant, so tender and mild. Sleep in heavenly peace. Sleep in heavenly peace.
Silent night, Holy night, shepherds quake at the sight Glories stream from heaven above.
Heavenly hosts sing HalleluYah! Christ the Savior is born. Christ the Savior is born.
Silent night, Holy night, Son of God, Love’s Pure Light. Radiant beams from Thy holy face
with the dawn of redeeming grace! Jesus, Lord at Thy birth. Jesus, Lord at Thy birth.
Pray.
We pray:
- As we wait in joyful expectation for the announcement that the angels brought to the shepherds, as we hear the ringing of the bells, the delighted shouts of children discovering their gifts under the tree, that we will once again bow our heads and whisper a prayer of thanksgiving for the miracle of the Incarnation…for God, Who so loved the world that He gave his only begotten son…for us! Pray.
- That as we continue to release the LOVE of GOD from our hearts over this nation, He will be glorified and will make His HABITATION in our midst! Pray.
