Tuesday, August 15, 2023 – 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!
“Grace to you and peace from Him Who is and Who was and Who is to come,
and from the seven spirits who are before His throne,
and from Jesus Christ, the Faithful Witness, the Firstborn of the dead, and the Ruler of kings on earth.”
Revelation 1:4-5
We sing: Because He Lives (Amen)
I believe in the Son, I believe in the risen One. I believe I overcome by the power of His Blood.
Amen, amen! I’m alive, I’m alive because He lives! Amen, amen! Let my song join the one that never ends
because He lives!
I was dead in the grave. I was covered in sin and shame
I heard mercy call my name; He rolled the stone away
Amen, amen! I’m alive, I’m alive because He lives! Amen, amen! Let my song join the one that never ends!
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow. Because He lives, every fear is gone.
I know He holds my life, my future in His hands!
Amen, amen! I’m alive, I’m alive because He lives! Amen, amen! Let my song join the one that never ends!
Amen, amen! I’m alive, I’m alive because He lives! Amen, amen! Let my song join the one that never ends
because He lives!

For us to receive and put on the Ephesians 6 “full armor of God” as we begin this hour,
that we might be protected as we stand in the gap for our country!
Pray.
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 David Clements, as he undertakes the assignment to connect with President Trump,
to see the declaration of a National Day of Repentance in which all Americans can take part!
Pray.
For protection, provision, and peace
for all working to expose the fraud and corruption of our elections!
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.
Strategic Focus for Tuesday
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 439
The Returning of President Trump to the White House! – Part 329
“Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.”
Romans 12;21
In 1770 the Irish statesman and philosopher Edmund Burke wrote about the need for good men to associate to oppose the cabals of bad men. Burke is credited with saying:
“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”
Pray.
In 1867, John Stuart Mill, an influential English philosopher of the 19th century, stated: “Let not any one pacify his conscience by the delusion that he can do no harm if he takes no part, and forms no opinion. Bad men need nothing more to compass their ends, than that good men should look on and do nothing. He is not a good man who, without a protest, allows wrong to be committed in his name, and with the means which he helps to supply, because he will not trouble himself to use his mind on the subject.” Pray.
The basic truth being expressed in both of these writings is that “we countenance evil when we see it, but say nothing!” Our senior Justice of the US Supreme Court, Clarence Thomas, is a man who can be silent, but when moved by the Holy Spirit, he clearly and articulately speaks the truth as instructed! Pray.
In writing his concurrence with Chief Justice John Roberts, who authored the Supreme Court’s 6-3 ruling overturning race-based college admission standards, Thomas leveled criticism at SCOTUS’ newest Associate Justice, Ketanji Brown Jackson, over what he described as her “racist worldview” which is “cancerous” to young people. In the ruling, Roberts wrote: “Eliminating racial discrimination means eliminating all of it.” Thomas agreed, noting that admissions programs at Harvard University violated Title VI of the Civil Rights Act and the University of North Carolina violated the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment. Pray.
In her dissent, Jackson claimed that the ruling would actually make things “worse” for minorities because “race still matters to the lived experiences of all Americans in innumerable ways. With let-them-eat-cake obliviousness, today, the majority pulls the ripcord and announces “colorblindness for all” by legal fiat. But deeming race irrelevant in law does not make it so in life. And having so detached itself from this country’s actual past and present experiences, the Court has now been lured into interfering with the crucial work that UNC and other institutions of higher learning are doing to solve America’s real-world problems. No one benefits from ignorance. Although formal race-linked legal barriers are gone, race still matters to the lived experiences of all Americans in innumerable ways, and today’s ruling makes things worse, not better. The best that can be said of the majority’s perspective is that it proceeds (ostrich-like) from the hope that preventing consideration of race will end racism.”
In his concurrence with the court’s majority, Thomas wrote: “Racialism simply cannot be undone by different or more racialism. Instead, the solution announced in the second founding is incorporated in our Constitution: that we are all equal, and should be treated equally before the law without regard to our race,” he wrote. “Only that promise can allow us to look past our differing skin colors and identities and see each other for what we truly are: individuals with unique thoughts, perspectives, and goals, but with equal dignity and equal rights under the law.” Pray.
The senior Justice then turned to his junior colleague’s unsubstantiated claim that the United States is a “fundamentally racist society.” He wrote. “Rather than focusing on individuals as individuals, her dissent focuses on the historical subjugation of black Americans, invoking statistical racial gaps to argue in favor of defining and categorizing individuals by their race. As she sees things, we are all inexorably trapped in a fundamentally racist society, with the original sin of slavery and the historical subjugation of black Americans still determining our lives today. The panacea, she counsels, is to unquestioningly accede to the view of elite experts and reallocate society’s riches by racial means as necessary to ‘level the playing field,’ all as judged by racial metrics. I strongly disagree.” Pray.
He added: “First, as stated above, any statistical gaps between the average wealth of black and white Americans is constitutionally irrelevant. I, of course, agree that our society is not, and has never been, colorblind. People discriminate against one another for a whole host of reasons. But, under the Fourteenth Amendment, the law must disregard all racial distinctions: In view of the constitution, in the eye of the law, there is in this country no superior, dominant, ruling class of citizens. There is no caste here. Our constitution is color-blind, and neither knows nor tolerates classes among citizens. Pray.
In respect of civil rights, all citizens are equal before the law. The humblest is the peer of the most powerful. The law regards man as man, and takes no account of his surroundings or of his color when his civil rights as guaranteed by the supreme law of the land are involved.” Pray.
Thomas then noted that Jackson “builds from her faulty premise to call for action, arguing that courts should defer to ‘experts’ and allow institutions to discriminate on the basis of race. Make no mistake: Her dissent is not a vanguard of the innocent and helpless. It is instead a call to empower privileged elites, who will ‘tell us [what] is required to level the playing field’ among castes and classifications that they alone can divine. Pray.
Then, after siloing us all into racial castes and pitting those castes against each other, the dissent somehow believes that we will be able—at some undefined point—to ‘march forward together’ into some utopian vision. Social movements that invoke these sorts of rallying cries, historically, have ended disastrously.” Pray.
We pray:
In thanksgiving for Justice Thomas having a keen understanding of the Founders’ intent…along with a healthy dose of common sense, when interpreting the law! Pray.
That the people of our nation will stand alongside President Trump, and remain engaged in this BATTLE TO SAVE AMERICA until VICTORY is won! Pray.
That the members of Congress will fully investigate and bring a swift end to the Biden crime family and those associated with it: Obama, Clinton, Comey and all the corrupt individuals concerned, convicting them of treason and restoring righteousness and justice for all!! Pray.
Protect and strengthen our 24/7 family and bring in new intercessors who are called to this assignment with us, to pray for our President and our beloved nation! Prepare us for our NEXT STEPS in this Battle to Save America! Pray.
