“A CALL TO THE WALL…ONE NATION UNDER GOD”
1-712-770-4340 Code: 543555 # (Ongoing call…24 hours a day!)
We begin our hour by praising and giving thanks to God!
“Therefore, know that the Lord your God, He is God, the faithful God
Who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations
with those who love Him and keep His commandments”
Deuteronomy 7:9
We sing: America (My Country ‘Tis of Thee)
My country! ‘Tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing;
Land where my fathers died, land of the pilgrims’ pride,
from every mountainside, let freedom ring.
My native country, thee, Land of the noble free, Thy name I love;
I love thy rocks and rills, Thy woods and templed hills;
my heart with rapture thrills, like that above.
Our father’s God to thee, Author of liberty, To Thee we sing;
Long may our land be bright, with freedom’s holy light;
protect us by Thy might, great God, our King.

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!
May he hear the truth about the “vaccines” and act accordingly, leading our people out of darkness.
Pray.
We pray for Governor Ron De Santis’ wife and Florida’s First Lady, Casey DeSantis,
who is being treated for breast cancer! We ask for her complete healing and full restoration!

Strategic Focus for Monday
WELCOME THE KING OF GLORY INTO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!
THE REDEMPTION OF THE AMERICAN REPUBLIC – Part 17
“Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abides forever.
As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds His people, from this time forth and forevermore.
For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest on the land allotted to the righteous,
lest the righteous stretch out their hands to do wrong.”
Psalm 125:1-3
With so much darkness covering our land at this hour, we can not help but take heart as we read the words of the psalm above! Today, we receive God’s promise that “the scepter of wickedness shall not rest on the land allotted to the righteous.” We agree with God’s WORD and joyfully anticipate the moment when the LIGHT will break through the darkness carrying His Glory throughout the earth! HalleluYah! Pray.
LIBERTY COUNSEL is on the frontlines, fighting for those breakthroughs, determined to STOP the denigration of our freedoms and the silencing of Christian viewpoints! Tomorrow, at 10 AM ET, Mat Staver, Chairman of LC, will appear before the US Supreme Court to argue the landmark case of Shurtleff v. City of Boston. It will set national precedent.
We of the 24/7 family have committed to pray for and undergird him as he prepares today and then stands before the highest court in our land tomorrow morning, seeking the VICTORY that will bring the required relief in this critically important case.
First, let’s take a look at the background of this matter: At issue in Shurtleff v. Boston, city resident Hal Shurtleff and his Christian civic organization, Camp Constitution, wanted to fly the camp’s flag, which is the Christian flag that features a red cross, on a city flag pole that is open to all types of flags. But the city denied the request, which prompted a legal challenge from Liberty Counsel.
- Liberty Counsel represents Hal Shurtleff and his Christian civic organization, Camp Constitution.
- The City of Boston has welcomed every viewpoint in its public forums, except the Christian viewpoint.
- The single word “Christian” on Camp Constitution’s application form resulted in the first exclusion ever.
Pray.
Boston has had a longstanding practice and policy to open a flagpole for private speakers to temporarily raise a flag during their event.
- In its own words, Boston created a “public forum” open to “all applicants.”
- But, after 12 years of no denials and virtually no review of the applications, Boston censored Camp Constitution specifically because its flag was referred to as a “Christian” flag.
Pray.
Under oath, a Boston city official testified that Camp Constitution’s flag would have been approved if the application did not refer to it as a “Christian flag.” The word “Christian” on the application alone triggered censorship. If it had not been referred to as “Christian,” Boston would have allowed it.
- The flag was not the problem. The single word “Christian” on the application was what resulted in the censorship. Pray.
Staver said: “What we have is a specific policy that designates the flag pole as a public forum open for anyone, a practice over 12 years where they never censored any of the 284 private applications. We have a statement in which they say that the only reason they censored the flag is because on the application it used the word ‘Christian.’
Now caught in the crosshairs of Supreme Court litigation, the City of Boston is attempting to claim that hundreds of private flags are “government speech,” and Boston can choose not to speak. But this argument is ridiculous.
- Over the years, 284 private flags have been raised in Boston’s Plaza. None were censored.
- Those flags have included everything from a flag with the Islamic crescent, LGBTQ pride and even a flag celebrating Mao Zedong’s Communist revolution that resulted in the genocide of 65 million Chinese people.
- Boston never censored any of these flags, nor denied any flag … that is until Camp Constitution wanted to celebrate the national Constitution Day and recognize the Christian community and the Founders.
Pray.
Lower courts have so far agreed with Boston in the case, including a court of appeals that ruled the flag displayed on the city pole would amount to government speech. But Staver says Boston’s argument does not hold water; he points out that nations like Turkey and Portugal are among those who have received permission to fly their flags on the pole, and both of those include religious imagery. “It is just absurd all the way around.”
Pray.
Since 2005, Boston’s website and policies advertised the square as a “public forum” for “all applicants,” but then slammed the door on Christian viewpoints. If Boston prevails, every local government will have a green light to censor viewpoints with which some government official disagrees.
- No longer would Christian viewpoints be allowed in many public forums.
- The Fellowship of Christian Athletes or Good News Clubs could be banned from meeting after school.
- Bible studies could be excluded from public library meeting rooms.
- If Boston wins, Christianity will be removed from many of the nation’s public forums.
Pray.
Liberty Counsel’s attorneys have been on “overload” particularly due to the unrighteous COVID restrictions; they need our prayers! They have defended an increasing number of attacks on religious freedom, standing up for pro-life counselors praying on a sidewalk, representing pastors who have been fined, criminally charged, and arrested for opening their churches, and defending parishioners put on the equivalent of house arrest for worshipping in their own cars in their own church parking lot on Easter Sunday…not to mention the thousands fighting the COVID mandates they have helped! Pray.
The war to silence Christian viewpoints and remove any trace of religion from public view seems to intensify each day. This case is one of national importance, and a win is needed to protect the competing viewpoints in the marketplace and to protect the RIGHT to religious freedom, individual viewpoints and assembly.
God’s “Champions” are being brought forth, and will not allow these attacks on our precious religious freedom to go unanswered! The attorneys at Liberty Counsel are foremost among them! As trhey have vowed to fight to the very gates of hell to protect America’s religious liberty, we have resolved to stand for and with them, interceding every hour today and tomorrow! May Mat’s presentation before the SCOTUS produce a positive result! Pray.
On-Site prayer:
- Monday, January 17 at 7 PM ET…prayer vigil and worship in front of SCOTUS. It will be live-streamed on Liberty Counsel’s Facebook page.
- Tuesday, January 18, there will be a rally at 9 AM ET in front of SCOTUS. The rally will be live-streamed on Liberty Counsel’s Facebook page.
We pray:
- That when Mat argues this case tomorrow, the Supreme Court Justices will recognize that there is a crucial difference between “government endorsement of religion” and “private speech, which government is bound to respect.” Pray.
- For the attorneys and staff of LIBERTY COUNSEL, on the frontlines of the battle for LIBERTY! Provide for their every need, Lord! Pray.
- That we will get our homes in order so that they might be places for God’s HABITATION and sanctuaries for others who are seeking Him! Pray.
- That as the REDEMPTION of the AMERICAN REPUBLIC takes place, those leaders that God anoints and appoints will take their places in the governments of each state and in our nation’s Capitol! Pray
- That we will joyfully release the LOVE of GOD from our hearts over this nation, and those faux leaders, including Biden, Harris, Pelosi, Schumer, Fauci, and all who are now children of darkness, will accept His salvation and be transformed…OR, if they reject Him, they will be removed! Pray.
- For an “appointed place” and an “appointed time” for our meeting with President Trump! Pray.
