About Alaska
The largest US state occupies a huge peninsula in the extreme northwest of North America. Its 10,690 km (6,640 mi) coastline stretches along the Beaufort and Chukchi Seas (both marginal seas of the Arctic Ocean), the Bering Strait and the Bering Sea, and the Gulf of Alaska, an arm of the Pacific Ocean.
Alaska is separated from the 48 contiguous U.S. states by Canada. The Bering Strait, a strait between the Pacific and Arctic Oceans, separates Asia (the Chukchi Peninsula of Russia) from North America (the Seward Peninsula of Alaska). Alaska is one of two US states not bordered by another state; Hawaii is the other.
Alaska borders Canada to the east (the Canadian provinces of Yukon Territory and British Columbia), and it shares a maritime border with Russia to the west. The state’s nickname is “The Last Frontier.”
At the time of European contact by Russian explorers in the mid-18th century, the area was populated by tribes of Alaskan Native people. Alaska was a Russian colony from the 1740s until 1867, when the territory was purchased by the United States from the Russians for $7.2 million. Admission to the Union was on the 3rd January 1959; Alaska was admitted as the 49th state.
After oil was discovered in 1968, a pipeline was completed in 1977 to transport that oil from the North Slope to Valdez, a former gold rush town that became an important port city in Alaska.

Motivated by the 24/7 National Prayer call daily Focuses we pray through every hour of the day and with the help and prayers of our Alaska 24/7 prayer call I have formed a group to get rid of the Voting Machines in the Matanuska Borough of Alaska. The next presentation of proof of the inability to bring accountability into voting machines to the Mat Su Borough Assembly is on July 19th.
Father, we pray knowing You pour Your Words into the hearts and minds of those leading Your people in Alaska. We feel Your mighty power and Your grace that pours into the hearts of Your men, women and children to restore every state in America .. Renewing every state in our Nation, Your Nations LORD. Dutch Sheets ~ “The other word is anakainoo, means qualitatively renewed. In this type of renewal God brings another stage of newness, AND WE ARE DIFFERENT FROM ANYTHING WE’VE EVER BEEN BEFORE. This process not only restores us, but it also transforms us into the image of Christ. Rather than just renewing us to where we were, He renews us to a fresh new place, When He is finished, we don’t feel or look the same. We are, indeed different and ready for a shift to more wine.”
