Friday, September 2, 2022 – The 24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call
“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!
“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God”
Ephesians 2:8
We sing: Amazing Grace
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost, but now I’m found was blind but now I see.
‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear and grace my fears relieved.
How precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed.
Through many dangers, toils, and snares I have already come.
This grace that brought me safe thus far, and grace will lead me home.
When we’ve been here ten thousand years bright, shining as the sun,
we’ve no less days to sing God’s praise than when we first begun.
~~~
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.
Pray.
For the restoration of Donald Trump to his rightful office.
In every situation and decision, let our President be led by the Holy Spirit,
so that he learns the truth and acts accordingly, for the good of the nation.
Pray.
For protection, provision, and peace
for all working to expose the fraud and corruption of the 2020 election!
As the SAVE AMERICA movement gains momentum, let those leaders that God anoints and appoints
take their places in the governments of each state and in our nation’s Capitol!
Pray.
For the strengthening of the 24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call
and for new intercessors to join our 24/7 family in praying for our President and the nation!
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 BATTLE TO SAVE AMERICA! – Part 116
“Fight on, America, Fight On!” – Part 50
“Go stand at the crossroads and look around. Ask for directions to the old road, the tried-and-true road. Then take it.”
Jeremiah 6:16
Tuesday evening, during our “Call to the Wall…to Pray for our President,” we had a keen sense that President Trump has asked for direction, received his instructions, and knows that now is the time to act! There is always a price to be paid when we do what is right, and he clearly articulated what must be done to preserve our nation!
“So now it comes out, conclusively, that the FBI BURIED THE HUNTER BIDEN LAPTOP STORY BEFORE THE ELECTION knowing that, if they didn’t, “Trump would have easily won the 2020 Presidential Election.”
This is massive FRAUD & ELECTION INTERFERENCE at a level never seen before in our Country.
REMEDY: Declare the rightful winner or, and this would be the minimal solution, declare the 2020 Election irreparably compromised and have a new Election, immediately!” Pray.
In his daily blog, GIVE HIM 15, Dutch Sheets spoke about The Price of Freedom. Let us pray into his message, being fully aware that each of us will be called to pray a price, and that when we are, God will be with us!
When Christ was preparing His original 12 world-changing pioneers, He made the cost clear to them:
“Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; so be shrewd as serpents and innocent as doves. But beware of men, for they will hand you over to the courts and scourge you in their synagogues.”
Matthew 10:16-17
“If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me. For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it; but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.’”
Matthew 16:24 -25
What price did these first disciples eventually pay to partner with Christ? Were Christ’s words simply symbolic language, not to be taken literally? Surely He wouldn’t actually allow His followers to lay down their lives, would He? History answers these questions:
● Andrew and Bartholomew were crucified.
● James, the son of Alphaeus, was stoned to death.
● James, the son of Zebedee, was beheaded.
● John, the son of Zebedee, was tortured and banished to the uninhabited island of Patmos.
● Peter and Philip were crucified upside down.
● Thomas was martyred in India.
● Apostle Paul and John the Baptist, not part of the original 12 disciples but two of Christ’s early leaders, were beheaded.
To be a true disciple of Christ – and a nation-changing pioneer – we must be willing to lay down our very lives. This mindset should permeate and influence all we do and live for. If we are to see America turn, it is one of the non-negotiables. Pray.
Another quality that will be required in order to turn this nation around is a determination that no cost is too great. William Wilberforce, who led the efforts to eradicate slavery from Great Britain, understood and demonstrated this. In the great movie about his life, Amazing Grace, Wilberforce’s butler surprised him in a moment of private prayer. When asked if he had found God, Wilberforce’s poignant reply was, “I think He found me.” Pray.
Indeed, God “found” Wilberforce, who became so joined to His heart and desires that no price was too great for the cause. This reformer’s passion to see the end of slavery caused him stomach ailments, nightmares, ridicule, and four decades of tireless work. Days before his death, however, the decisive vote came to eliminate slavery from England. Amazingly, when the law became formal three days after the vote, Wilberforce’s spirit left this world! Thomas Buxton, a personal friend and member of the House of Commons at the time said of him, “The day which was the termination of his labors was the termination of his life.”
Have you been found? Has the cause of Christ possessed you? Pray.
When God led the early Pilgrims to this land – He was obviously involved in the process – they came with hearts willing to pay whatever price the dream would cost them. A part of their stated cause was,
“For the Glory of God and the advancement of the Christian faith…”
The Pilgrims arrived on a cramped and dirty ship, in sloshing water filled with human waste and vomit. They were ill-prepared for the trials of this new land, including a brutal winter, and more than half would perish before the end of their first summer. These Pilgrims weren’t failures, however. Planting a cross on the beach where they landed at Cape Henry, and dedicating this land to the gospel and the glory of God, they created a holy legacy. Heaven still honors the trail they blazed and the prayers they prayed. Pray.
Buried in the soil of freedom, they became a vital part of the heritage we now enjoy. Pioneers all, their legacies live. The price they paid to create an outpost for the gospel created a debt for those who followed, including us today. The debt we owe is not only to preserve freedom, but it is also to preserve this land as a light of truth – a beacon, a city on a hill – to all other nations. If we pay our debt today, the difficult trail we blaze back to the old road will become the glorious path our children walk tomorrow. Pray.
America was formed with the blood, sweat, and tears of many price-paying pioneers. When John Adams was elected as a Boston delegate in 1770, he knew it was considered treason to the King of England; Adams believed the decision would cost him everything. He informed his wife Abigail, “I have accepted a seat in the House of Representatives, and thereby have consented to my own ruin…”
How many today would accept a seat in Congress if they knew it could cost them everything? In Adams’ day, by the way, members of Congress weren’t even paid a salary – only a small per diem. Not many currently in government would serve our nation without pay, let alone do so at the risk of their lives. Pray.
Adams wasn’t finished with his declaration, however. After informing Abigail that he had consented to his own ruin, this patriot pioneer continued, “…to your ruin, and the ruin of our children. I give you this warning, that you may prepare your mind for your fate.” Incredible, but Adams had been found! His love of liberty and his belief that God was raising up the United States of America meant that, to him, no price was too great to pay. Pray.
How did Abigail feel about this? Betrayed? Horrified? Did she threaten to leave him? Not even close. She too, like Wilberforce, had been found. According to Adams, Abigail burst into tears and cried out, “Well, I am willing in this cause to run all risks with you, and be ruined with you, if you are ruined.” What amazing passion these two patriots possessed for the cause!
Contrast this sacrificial and servant-motivated attitude with the selfish lust for prestige, power, and financial gain motivating many civic leaders in America today. The difference is disgusting. From buying and selling votes to taxpayer-funded vacations to private jets. For so many, Washington, DC has become the home of the rich, the famous, and the exploiters. Pray.
At the signing of the Declaration of Independence a few years later, Adams, along with his fellow signers, again accepted the potential and probable cost of freedom: “For the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of the Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.”
Adams would later state to Abigail, “I am well aware of the toil and blood and treasure that it will cost us to maintain this Declaration and support and defend these states. Yet through all the gloom, I can see the rays of ravishing light and glory. I can see that the end is more than worth all the means.” Pray.
If America is to find her way back to the old road, it will be because another generation of patriotic and God-honoring Americans put on pioneer mantles and search for it – no matter the cost. Some will accuse me of inappropriately marrying the love of God and country, but it is my love for God and His cause on the earth that fuels my passion for seeing America restored.
Like Adams and our other founding fathers, I realize God chose to raise up this nation as part of His plan to redeem the human race. America wasn’t established solely for us Americans. And it certainly wasn’t for the enjoyment of the narcissistic “American Dream” we’ve allowed our desires to devolve into. Partnering with God in His great dream was to be our privilege and destiny. For this, no cost is too great. Pray.
Let’s pray and work to end selfishness in the church and in Washington, DC. Let’s cry out for another generation of pioneers who will lose their lives to find His; believers that will accept their debt to the cross and pay any price necessary to lead America back to the old road. We pray and declare our intent that the purpose of God for America will not be lost – not on our watch. Pray.
We pray:
- Father, we are grateful for the great cloud of witnesses who paid such high prices for our cause. Forgive those of us in the American Church who have allowed our commitment to You to grow cold. Forgive us and fan the flame in our hearts once more! Pray.
- That in the coming revival, hearts will be awakened, and passion for You will outweigh our devotion to self. Let millions give their hearts to You, and millions more see their first love restored. Pray.
- Heal our broken nation. Lead us back to the old road of truth, integrity, righteousness, and common sense. Deliver us from evil rulers and give us leaders who love and honor You and Your ways.
- Let us remember and act upon all that we have learned through the Doctrine of the Lesser Magistrates, Do Not Leave Quietly, and the Moment of Truth Summit. Pray.
- As we engage in intercession for this BATTLE TO SAVE AMERICA, we “stand in the gap” with President Trump, and reject both the usurper and those pulling the strings in this faux administration. Pray.
- For our elected officials, that along with us will rise up to fight the corruption and fraud that took place in the 2020 election! Pray.
- We lift up our duly elected President, Donald John Trump, asking You to guard, guide, and govern his every word and action. Protect him from all enemies, without and within …, especially among those who advise him and offer counsel! Pray.
- Guard and protect our 24/7 family with the Blood of Jesus, as we together “stand in the gap” in this BATTLE TO SAVE AMERICA! Pray.
