Saturday, March 9, 2019 – 24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call
“A CALL TO THE WALL…ONE NATION UNDER GOD”
1-712-770-4340 Code: 543555 #
We will not tolerate any demonic interference on the 24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call.
We are taking measures to protect and defend our 24/7 family and this call. At the top of every hour,
the facilitator, in agreement with those on the line, will bind all forces of evil and cast them down into the abyss, then pray a shield of protection over the call and our 24/7 family!
*The key assignment for the 24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call is to intercede hourly
for the safety and security of our President and to pray for that which pertains to our nation!
We pray for the protection of our President Donald Trump and cover him with the Blood of Jesus.
We bless our First Lady, Melania, their young son Barron and each of their family members.
We cover our Vice President Mike Pence, his wife Karen and their family
and all those in this Administration who are serving You and our nation!”
The 24/7 NSPC has called the Body of Christ nationwide to pray for the 2020 National Elections,
mobilizing intercessors and positioning ourselves in prayer before the Lord
on behalf of our President and nation!
Today, we pray into this verse for our elections.
“God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise,
and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty.”
1 Corinthians 1:27

WELCOME THE KING OF GLORY INTO THE UNITED STATES
HR 1 – UNDERMINING OUR ELECTION PROCESS
“Now I urge you, brethren, note those who cause divisions and offenses, contrary to the doctrine which you learned, and avoid them. For those who are such do not serve our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly, and by smooth words and flattering speech deceive the hearts of the simple.”
Romans 16:17-18
The liberal left continues to push their radical agenda against American values. Instead of securing and protecting our election process and defending states’ rights, House Democrats are now promoting legislation that will do the exact opposite!
The bill, HR 1, a sweeping election reform bill that serves as the touchstone to the House Democratic agenda, inhibits states’ powers to set qualifications for voters, removes safeguards on voter registration rolls, and undermines the integrity of elections. Dems say it will curb big money in politics, make it easier to vote and bolster election security. It institutes a public financing system for congressional campaigns, requires presidential candidates to disclose tax returns and makes Election Day a federal holiday
Referring to the number of the House’s first bill of the new session, a spokesman for The Heritage Foundation said, “HR 1 is one of the worst bills introduced in Congress in recent memory. Many parts of it are unconstitutional and it is full of bad and unwise provisions that will restrict free speech and grassroots political activity, as well as hamper the ability of state government to ensure the security and integrity of the election process.” Others agree:
- Jessica Anderson, VP of Heritage Action for America, the lobbying arm of The Heritage Foundation, said HR 1 is a political tool Democrats are using to further their agenda.
- Rep. Andy Biggs, (R-AZ) said the Democrats’ bill is an attack on Americans’ freedoms. “There’s a reason why a lot of people in one party voting for this, and I don’t know whether they believe in the Constitution or not. But what it means is they know what this is going to help them irrigate more power to them and continue to try to stomp down on the power of the people.”
- Rep. Denver Riggleman, (R-VA) said the Democrats’ bill would harm states’ rights as well as voting rights. “Now they are not only taking away any ability of the states to draw their own [voting] districts and create their own election law, they are also ensuring that the taxpayers are footing the bill for politicians, who probably should be raising their own money for this,” Riggleman said.
House Republicans tried to add the following language to the HR1 election proposal, stating that:
“allowing illegal immigrants the right to vote devalues the franchise
and diminishes the voting power of United States citizens.”
Their motion was voted down 228-197.
(All but six Democrats in the House voted against it. Just one Republican opposed it.)
Democrats “promoted” HR 1 as a bill that would ‘strengthen our democracy and return political power to the people,’ but it is an anti-democratic bill that would wreak havoc on our election system. Manipulating election rules in favor of Democrats, it is nothing but a progressive power grab, and all Republicans in Congress should vote against it.
Yesterday, the legislation passed the House (234-193), and will go to the Senate, where the Republicans hold a majority of 53 seats. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) said it is “dead on arrival”.
SUMMARY
- HR 1 federalizes and micromanages the election process administered by the states, imposing unnecessary, unwise, and unconstitutional mandates on the states.
- The bill interferes with the ability of states and their citizens to determine qualifications for voters and to ensure the accuracy of voter registration rolls.
- HR 1 reverses the decentralization of the American election process—which is necessary for protecting our liberty and freedom.
We pray:
- That no law would be passed that would inhibit states’ powers to set qualifications for voters, remove safeguards on voter registration rolls, and undermine the integrity of elections.
- Lord God, we pray that You would preserve our Constitutional federalism–protect our elections and our states from harm and federal overreaching. Stop this bill in the Senate and preserve State’s Rights!
Read and then pray saying “NO!” to each of these points that analysts say will result from this bill:
1. Seize the authority of states to regulate voter registration and the voting process by forcing states to implement early voting, automatic voter registration, same-day registration, online voter registration, and no-fault absentee balloting. We pray:
2. Make it easier to commit voter fraud and promote chaos at the polls through same-day registration, as election officials have no time to verify the accuracy of voter registration information and cannot anticipate the number of voters, ballots, and precinct workers that will be needed. We pray:
3. Hurt voter turnout through early voting by diffusing the intensity of get-out-the-vote efforts while raising the cost of campaigns. Voters who vote early don’t have the same information as those who vote on Election Day, missing late-breaking developments that could affect their choices. We pray:
4. Degrade the accuracy of registration lists by automatically registering individuals from state databases, such as DMV and welfare offices, by registering large numbers of ineligible voters, including aliens as well as multiple or duplicate registrations of the same individuals. We pray:
5. Constitute a recipe for massive voter registration fraud by hackers and cybercriminals through online voter registration not tied to an existing state record such as a driver’s license. We pray:
6. Require states to count ballots cast by voters outside of their assigned precinct, overriding the precinct system used by almost all states that allows election officials to monitor votes, staff polling places, provide enough ballots, and prevent election fraud. Mandates no-fault absentee ballots, which are the tool of choice for vote thieves. We pray:
7. Prevent election officials from checking the eligibility and qualifications of voters and removing ineligible voters. It would restrict officials from using the U.S. Postal Service’s national change-of-address system to verify the address of registered voters; participating in state programs that compare voter registration lists to detect individuals registered in multiple states; or ever removing registrants due to a failure to vote, no matter how much time has gone by. We pray:
8. Cripple the effectiveness of state voter ID laws by allowing individuals to vote without photo identification and merely sign a statement in which they claim they are who they say they are. We pray:
9. Violate the First Amendment and cover a vast range of legal activity. Voter intimidation/coercion that prevents someone from registering or voting is already a federal crime under the Voting Rights Act and the National Voter Registration Act. HR 1 adds an additional provision to prevent interference with registering or voting that is so vague that it could easily interfere with free speech and other lawful activity. We pray:
10. Expand government regulation and censorship of election campaigns and political activity and speech, including online and policy-related speech. HR 1 imposes onerous legal and administrative compliance burdens and costs on candidates, citizens, civic groups, unions, corporations, and nonprofit organizations. Many of these provisions violate the First Amendment, protect incumbents, and reduce the accountability of politicians to the public. We pray:
11. Reduce the number of Federal Election Commission members from 6 to 5, allowing the political party with three commission seats to control the commission and engage in partisan enforcement activities. We pray:
12. Prohibit state election officials from participating in federal elections and impose numerous other “ethics” rules that are unconstitutional or unfairly restrict political activity. We pray:
13. Require states to restore ability of felons to vote the moment they are out of prison. Section 2 of the 14th Amendment gives states the constitutional authority to decide when felons who committed crimes against their fellow citizens may vote again. Congress cannot override a constitutional amendment with a statute. We pray:
14. Transfer the power to draw congressional districts from state legislatures to “independent” commissions whose members are unaccountable to voters. HR 1 makes it a violation of federal law to engage in “partisan” redistricting and mandates inclusion of alien populations, both legal and illegal, in all redistricting. This is an anti-democratic, unconstitutional measure that takes away the ability of the citizens of a state to make their own decision about redistricting. We pray:
15. Violate separation of powers and directly interfere with the president’s constitutional duties. HR 1 bans the president’s political appointees, such as the attorney general, from participating in, directing the defense of, or assisting in any matter (including lawsuits against a president’s policies, programs, executive orders, or his enforcement of the law) in which the president is named as a party. We pray:

Specific Prayer Topic for Today
Praying for our President and his Administration
When House Judiciary Chair Jerry Nadler announced investigations into the President’s campaign, businesses, transition and administration, he was laying the groundwork for Democrats to pursue impeachment proceedings, saying “it’s very clear” to him that Trump committed obstruction of justice. The White House responded: “Today, Chairman Nadler opened up a disgraceful and abusive investigation into tired, false allegations already investigated by the Special Counsel and committees in both Chambers of Congress. He and his fellow Democrats have embarked on this ‘fishing expedition’ because they are terrified that their two-year false narrative of ‘Russia collusion’ is crumbling. Their intimidation and abuse of American citizens is shameful.” We of the 24/7 agree!
We pray:
- Lord, we affirm and bless our President and thank God for our lovely First Lady! The dignity and decorum Donald and Melania Trump have brought back to the WHITE HOUSE have been a “blessed relief” to those of us who witnessed such decline during previous tenures. What a JOY it is to see the restoration taking place through this precious First Family. Protect, preserve and defend them every step of the way! Thank You, Lord!
