“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!
“I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you;
and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”
Genesis 12:3
We sing: “This is my Country”
This is my country! Land of my birth! This is my country! Grandest on earth!
I pledge thee my allegiance, America, the bold, for this is my country to have and to hold.
Spoken:
What diff’rence if I hail from North or South or from the East or West?
My heart is filled with love for all of these.
I only know I swell with pride and deep within my breast, I thrill to see Old Glory paint the breeze.
With hand upon heart, I thank the Lord for this my native land, for all I love is here within her gates.
My soul is rooted deeply in the soil on which I stand, for these are mine, my own United States.
This is my country! Land of my choice! This is my country! Hear my proud voice!
I pledge thee my allegiance, America, the bold, for this is my country! To have and to hold.
~~~
For us to receive and put on the Ephesians 6 “full armor of God” as we begin each hour,
that we might be protected as we continue to “stand in the gap” for our beloved 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 (and now re-elected) President, Donald John Trump,
and to pray for that which pertains to our nation!
We pray for his protection, as he prepares to be inaugurated as our 47th President.
May he be led by the Holy Spirit
so that he will discern truth and act for the good of the nation.
We bless our First Lady, Melania, their marriage and family, and cover them all with the Blood of Jesus.
Pray.
For those leaders that God has anointed, appointed, and elected,
as they take their places in the governments of each state and in our nation’s Capitol!
May they work together to clean up corruption in our government, and restore our electoral system.
Pray.
We will now spend the next 10 minutes praying for President Trump.
During the final 70 days before the Inauguration, we are standing
in FAITH AND HOPE AND OBEDIENCE TO OUR CALLING…
praying that he will be alive to be inaugurated as our 47th President on January 20th, 2025!
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 916
The Righteous Return of President Trump to the White House! – Part 816
“For the LORD is our Judge,
the LORD is our Lawgiver,
the LORD is our King;
He will save us.”
Isaiah 33:22
As American citizens, it is imperative that we learn and understand that our political tradition comes from and is upheld by our Constitution, which was based on God’s Law! Let us read, learn and pray into this article regarding our most precious document.
The Trump Mandate Calls For A Restoration Of Its Original Meaning And Preeminence
Part 1
When Donald Trump offered a return to “basic common sense” on the campaign trail this cycle, he was yet again hearkening to this great American tradition of constitutional governance. The Constitution of the United States is the law of the land…the cornerstone of our system of republican government…and provides both the moral fuel behind the “rule of law” as well as our national self-conception as a free and liberty-bearing people. For many Americans, particularly new arrivals who have been insufficiently assimilated or those who have been indoctrinated by the school system in recent decades, the idea of the Constitution’s supreme authority may seem strange, even objectionable – or in the favored parlance of modern times, “problematic.” But the bitter pill to swallow for these types is that the only way political power and its dissemination in modern American society can be meaningfully discussed is by reference to the Constitution, which was written in 1787, ratified in 1788, and established three separate but theoretically co-equal branches of government. Pray.
The first branch described under Article I is the legislature, a bicameral Congress with two chambers:
-an upper house, the Senate, which is supposed to be the more deliberative, restrained body. Modeled after its Roman antecedent (where the name derives from) – the Senate was conceived as the more aristocratic of the two chambers. The Senate is broadly analogous to the British House of Lords. Senators have 6 year terms, with the power to offer advice and consent over presidential appointments, ratify treaties, hold impeachment trials, and, with cooperation from the House of Representatives, pass laws.
-the “house of Representatives,” in contrast, was originally the more democratic of the two chambers – it held exclusive power over the purse and was more directly accountable to the people who elected its members. Its members, unlike the Senate, are elected every two years, just one third of the time of the Senator’s enumerated tenure. The frequency with which House members are up for re-election was intended to facilitate turnover, and with that, inculcate a time-sensitiveness to congressional offices, offering motivation to pass legislation, in accordance with the people’s will “with all deliberate speed” – to borrow a favorite catchphrase from our legal discourse. Pray.
The second branch of the government – aptly outlined under Article II, is the executive. The executive branch, under the Constitution’s very explicit original formulation (which, contrary to the overwhelming sentiment in today’s Washington is an article that has not undergone emendation – the Founder’s only enumerated mechanism for constitutional change) is vested entirely (in noticeable contradistinction to “mostly” or “largely”) in a (again, singular, one) President of the United States. (“The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America” – is as clear a phrase as one will ever find in that occasionally abstruse text). In other words, of the three branches of government, the executive branch is the only one under our Constitution – which, again, is the law of the land – that is vested in a single individual. To continue our analogy from above, the President is roughly akin to a British King – a comparison made both favorably and unfavorably throughout the Federalist Papers, that handbook to aid constitutional interpretation and explanation, devised by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay. In Roman times, though the analogy is far less apropos (for reasons that should be quite obvious), the American president would be roughly equivalent to the emperor-type figure. In official duties, the President – or Chief Magistrate – is tasked with law enforcement. He is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, ensuring civilian control over the military (something of paramount importance to all the Founding Fathers) – not, as our latter-day betters would have us believe, something to be outsourced to the Joint Chiefs of Staff, or the Pentagon, or lobbyists and consultants working for Raytheon. Being singular or unitary, the President appoints cabinet secretaries and federal judges. The former answer to him alone. And while Congressional approval, in some cases, is needed to fulfill the President’s constitutional obligation for nominations, the President – as the Unitary Executive – has full discretion over the tenures of each and every one of his underlings within the executive department. If not the President, then who else would be tasked with monitoring and regulating the responsibilities of executive branch officials? The Congress? Some outside agency? The question should answer itself. As for the agencies (and the larger bureaucracy), the acute observer will find – well, problematic – that no such fourth branch of government exists within the text of the Constitution. Pray.
The third article, Article III, deals with the establishment of the Judicial department: the Supreme Court, other federal courts – and the procedures for regulating the assignment of jurisdiction. There are no other articles contained in the Constitution outlining a fourth or fifth branch of government. There are only three: Legislative, Executive, and Judicial. The intellectual origins for this go back millennia, to Polybius, that most worthy of Greek thinkers, whose own thought was later repurposed – or rediscovered – many centuries later by Montesquieu, who introduced “separation of powers” into our political lexicon. But Montesquieu was simply mimicking his ancient superiors, whose template afforded both enlightened philosophers and Founding Father alike with the rubric by which to model their own post-Revolutionary governments, so ordered as to maximize individual liberty and minimize governmental overreach. Pray.
It is a rather sorry development of our own sorry times that we have forgotten so much of our venerable past – most especially, the grand Constitutional tradition, the cardiovascular system of the American republic, even a republic significantly enervated relative to its original conception. In a few words, the Constitution – and the broader tradition inclusive of the Bill of Rights, Declaration of Independence, and Federalist Papers – is the only thing that gives our laws authority, our elections significance, and our political life ultimate meaning. If not for the Constitution, then what on earth impels our quadrennial elections – and the national furor which surrounds their outcomes, every four years, in the hard-charging media narratives that pervade every new administration, and the existential rhetorical drapery over which so-called “newspapers of record” have increasingly adorned the stakes of recent administrations – and the Trump years in particular. If “a government of laws, not of men” is our unofficial national motto: then, what, other than the law-of-the-land itself, would dare claim to give the rest of our laws their derivative legitimacy? Americans, including far too many conservatives (and not just conservative voters, but the officials who comprise Republican administrations) have seemingly forgotten that laws do not come out of thin air. So too have they forgotten the all-important axiom that laws, decoupled from justice, are functionally inoperative: moot, impotent, dead. Pray.
We pray:
That there would be a strong and vigorous movement in the United States to return to the rule of law, and to honor the foundational principles set in place by our Founding Fathers. Pray.
That all Americans, both natural and naturalized, would learn about and fully appreciate the God-given gift of the Constitution of the United States, our Bill of Rights and the Declaration of Independence. 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.
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.
