“A CALL TO THE WALL…ONE NATION UNDER GOD”

We begin our hour by praising and giving thanks to God!
“He will feed His flock like a shepherd;
He will gather the lambs with His arm, and carry them in His bosom,
and gently lead those who are with young.”
Isaiah 40:11
We sing: Like a Shepherd
Like a shepherd, He feeds his flock and gathers the lambs in His arms,
Holding them carefully close to His heart, leading them home.
Say to the cities of Judah: Prepare the way of the Lord.
Go to the mountaintop, lift your voice: Jerusalem, here is our God.
Like a shepherd, He feeds his flock and gathers the lambs in His arms,
Holding them carefully close to His heart, leading them home.
I myself will shepherd them, for others have led them astray.
The lost I will rescue and heal their wounds, and pasture them, giving them rest.
Like a shepherd, He feeds his flock and gathers the lambs in His arms,
Holding them carefully close to His heart, leading them home.

The key assignment for the 24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call is to intercede hourly for the safety and security of our President, Donald John Trump, and to pray for that which pertains to our nation!
We pray for our President’s protection from the coronavirus and cover him with the Blood of Jesus.
Let him respond to every situation by the leading of the Holy Spirit!
We refer those to You who are plotting and planning the demise of our beloved President!
We say “No!” to them and ask that You expose and foil all their plans! Thank You, Lord!
We bless our First Lady, Melania, their marriage, their son Barron and all their family members.
We bless our Vice President Mike Pence, his wife Karen and their family
and all those serving in this Administration.
We pray for the mass media, which is being used and exploited by the “father of lies.”
We ask that it either reverses course and reports accurately or be taken down.
We pray for the Federal Reserve Board members, to use their power to boost our nation’s economy.
Let them act in accord with what is good for the USA!
The 24/7 NSPC is praying for the 2020 National Elections,
positioning ourselves in intercession before the Lord on behalf of our President and nation!
COUNTDOWN: 172 days until the election!
Let us pray into this verse:
“Be diligent to know the state of your flocks, and attend to your herds”
Proverbs 27:23
Strategic Focus for Saturday
WELCOME THE KING OF GLORY INTO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!
LIKE A SHEPHERD…
“Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, serving as overseers, not by compulsion but willingly, not for dishonest gain but eagerly; nor as being lords over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock; and when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that does not fade away.”
1 Peter 5:2-4
As we flow in the theme of the Good Shepherd, we praise God that we have the confidence to know that, like the tender little lambs, we will be carried safely in Jesus’ arms, through every trial and trouble. He is with us, to secure us, to comfort us and to assure us that ALL IS WELL! Romans 8:28 is real: In ALL, God works together for good!
Right now, we are being “shepherded’ through the process of reopening our country and “reigniting” our economic engines! The doors that were shut, the buildings that were empty, the workplaces that were vacated…all are being opened and made ready to do business once again! People going back to work are exhilarated by their newly reacquired FREEDOM…and are providing America’s public and private sector with what should be the happiest workforce in decades!
We pray:
- In gratitude for those states who are in the process of lifting the restrictions on their citizens, so that we can get out and “start our engines” once again! Pray.
While making progress on the economic front, President Trump has also been very intentional to continue to focus on the nation’s health care needs, in particular, those of our most vulnerable citizens. On Friday, in the Rose Garden of the White House, the President announced that we have pulled out all the stops…and cut through all the red tape…to launch a new public-private partnership to develop a COVID vaccine. “Operation Warp Speed” is a massive scientific, industrial and logistical endeavor…unlike anything our country has seen since the WWII “Manhattan Project.” Those working in this endeavor are making tremendous strides as they accelerate the development of diagnostic therapies…and press on toward the goal of having a vaccine ready to distribute by January 2021.
With the President for the announcement were the two key individuals who will be leading “Operation Warp Speed” (OWS) are:
- Chief Scientist: Dr. Moncef Slaqui – (pronounced “slau-we”) – a world-renowned immunologist who has been involved in the formulation and production of 14 new vaccines over the past 10 years. He was previously an executive with GlaxoSmithKline, a British, multinational pharmaceutical firm.
- CEO: 4 Star General Gus Perna, US Army Materiel Command (logistics / supply lines / getting items distributed) – in charge of over 200K employees and does all the US contracting both here and the world. His group will be responsible to deploy the vaccines when they become available!
They were joined by General Mark Milley (Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff), Alex Azar (Secretary of Health and Human Services) and Mark Esper (Secretary of Defense)
We pray:
- That You will bless those who have been called to this endeavor, and use the giftings and experience of each individual, with the combined strengths of the HHS + DOD, so that this effort results in success! Pray.
The key points brought forth were:
- That we want to make sure millions of Americans who want it will have access to a vaccine.
- That 14 of 100 potential vaccine candidates are showing promise and have been selected for further trials.
- The Federal Government will invest in manufacturing all of the top vaccine candidates before they are approved, so we can provide it to our people as soon as it’s ready.
- We’ll also have all the supplies necessary to distribute it to our people… such as needles, syringes, etc.
We pray:
- That Americans will recognize that what is needed to secure this nation and our people is a right relationship with God, and that through Him, all our needs will be supplied. Pray.
Drs. Fauci, Birx and Hahn, members of the Coronavirus Task Force, were wearing masks and standing in the background, as if on display (“window dressing”). Fauci stood behind the President, off his left shoulder in clear view of the camera the entire time. He was actually a major distraction as he shifted back and forth, folding and unfolding his arms, with a notably furrowed brow. He appeared very uncomfortable…(perhaps because he couldn’t get behind the microphone!)
The President made these comments. Pray and agree with him on each of them!
- “We’re working to make sure millions of Americans have access to the vaccine!”
- “130 active therapies are being worked on. Therapeutics is a big factor.” Pray.
- “Our country has to get back to work again! Our people want to get back!”
- “ Keeping the country closed could cause suicides and drug addiction.” Pray.
- “It should have been stopped at the source, but it wasn’t.” Pray.
- “Vaccine or no vaccine, we’re back!” Pray.
When President Trump says that we have to open the nation and get back to work, he is echoing the sentiments (and the passions) of millions of Americans! Following Jesus, THE Good Shepherd, President Trump has been out in front, clearing the path, taking the risks and experiencing the hits, all the while speaking encouragement to the “flock” as he “shepherds” our nation, leading us through this very troublesome time.
Who says of Cyrus, ‘He is My shepherd, and he shall perform all My pleasure, Saying to Jerusalem, “You shall be built,” and to the temple, “Your foundation shall be laid.”
Isaiah 44:28
Yellow = CLOSED state
Light Blue = Partially Open
Dark Blue = OPEN
Red and Blue states
26 Red = Republican Governors
24 Blue = Democrat Governors
There are other “shepherds”, Governors of our 50 states and territories, who have been given the responsibility to “shepherd” their people and to work with “undershepherds” at the local levels. They, like our President, love the people, and when they see the people’s plight, it becomes their concern. They, too, are good shepherds!
“When He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd.”
Matthew 9:36
Pray.
There are other Governors, however, who were called to be good shepherds…but instead, they have seized this opportunity to attempt to gain more power, and have exercised unjust authority over their flocks! They have failed to shepherd properly and for that, they will pay a heavy price when they are called to account by God! He says:
“The weak you have not strengthened, the sick you have not healed, the injured you have not bound up, the strayed you have not brought back, the lost you have not sought, and with force and harshness you have ruled them.”
Ezekiel 34:4
Pray.
We pray:
- Lord, we thank You for the righteous and “good” leaders that You have given us, those whom You have allowed to support President Trump so that together, they can navigate the troubled waters of this season for our country. We bless each one who is serving as You intended.
- We ask that those who are not serving You or Your purposes will be given a chance to repent, and if they do not turn from their wicked ways, that You will remove them from their positions, and remove the yokes off the necks of their people!
- Break the bars off of our nation and open the doors to allow us to relaunch in every community, city, and state, so our economy will come roaring back, surpassing what it was before the virus, and bringing GLORY to You, and joy to our people.
- Give us a fantastic reelection campaign for our beloved President, as You place him in office for another term!
