We begin our hour by praising and giving thanks to God!
“You shall not fight in this battle.
Set yourselves and stand, and see the salvation of Yahweh with you, O Judah and Jerusalem.
Do not fear nor be dismayed.
Tomorrow go out against them, for Yahweh will be with you.“
2 Chronicles 20:17
We sing: Battle Belongs
When all I see is the battle, You see my victory.
When all I see is the mountain, You see a mountain moved.
And as I walk through the shadow, Your love surrounds me.
There’s nothing to fear now for I am safe with You.
So when I fight, I’ll fight on my knees, with my hands lifted high. Oh God, the battle belongs to You!
And every fear I lay at Your feet, I’ll sing through the night. Oh God, the battle belongs to You!
And if You are for me, who can be against me? For Jesus, there’s nothing impossible for You.
When all I see are the ashes, You see the beauty. Thank You, God.
When all I see is a cross, God, You see the empty tomb.
So when I fight, I’ll fight on my knees, with my hands lifted high. Oh God, the battle belongs to You!
And every fear I lay at Your feet, I’ll sing through the night. Oh God, the battle belongs to You!
An almighty fortress, You go before us. Nothing can stand against the power of our God!
You shine in the shadows, You win every battle. Nothing can stand against the power of our God!
An almighty fortress, You go before us. Nothing can stand against the power of our God!
You shine in the shadows, You win every battle. Nothing can stand against the power of our God!
An almighty fortress, You go before us. Nothing can stand against the power of our God!
You shine in the shadows, You win every battle. Nothing can stand against the power of our God!
So when I fight, I’ll fight on my knees, with my hands lifted high. Oh God, the battle belongs to You!
And every fear I lay at Your feet, I’ll sing through the night. Oh God, the battle belongs to You!
Oh God, the battle belongs to You!

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, his restoration to his rightful office, and that he is 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 all those working to expose the fraud and corruption of our elections!
Let those leaders that God anoints and appoints
take their places in the governments of each state and in our nation’s Capitol!
Pray.
We will now spend the next 10 minutes praying for President Trump.
Pray.
Strategic Focus for Thursday
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 820
The Righteous Return of President Trump to the White House! – Part 720
“For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.”
Philippians 3:20
Frank Kacer’s Biblical politics are more than “just voting.” In his book: “65 Wisdom Principles for Christian Political Activists,” he addresses practical issues Christians face in applying a biblical worldview to their political involvement. Whether simply voting, supporting a candidate, working with church leaders during election cycles, or even running for office…whatever falls into the category of “politics”…he challenges us to get involved at “such a time as this!” (…and one way we can do that is to share this focus with others!)
It seems as if every Presidential election becomes the most important of our lifetime. There’s a reason for that. Our nation has become increasingly “progressive,” or just plain “far left” politically and ideologically. Because the reasons for this drift are complicated (practical, ideological, educational, and spiritual), there’s not a single “silver bullet” that’s going to convince a major portion of our population to suddenly embrace our conservative values. While that multi-layered battle is a long one that needs to be vigorously waged one soul at a time, elections offer us an opportunity to influence political decision-makers directly. Pray.
It goes without saying that the results of the upcoming Presidential election will have profound implications for us as a nation, and for the rest of the world. We know that the Lord’s purposes will ultimately prevail, and we also know He uses human instruments to bring those purposes about. Since we’re both God’s representatives and citizens of this nation, we have the duty to honor the Lord by taking every election seriously. Think about it. Have we done our duty by just showing up to vote? As important as our vote is, there’s so much more we can and should be doing. Pray.
The following are actions Kacer encourages us to consider doing.
Voting It’s shocking, but the Christian community mirrors the rest of the public when it comes to voting. Only half of eligible voters are registered to vote, and only half of registered voters actually end up voting. That means about 25% of “eligible” voters (18 years of age and older and a citizen) actually vote. So, wherever you live, ask yourself:
Are you registered to vote? (If you’re not sure, check with your local County Registrar of Voters to verify you’re registered. If you’re not registered (for example – you’ve moved recently, then register NOW (don’t put it off)
Are you encouraging like-minded family members and relatives to vote?
Are you encouraging your like-minded neighbors, co-workers, church friends, and other close associates to vote?
Are you marking Election Day on your calendar and scheduling around it?
Are you willing to vote early by casting your ballot in person at an official Voting Center? Do not trust the mail; so that the number of people “processing” your vote is minimized.
Remember, even though we have “salt and light mandate,” don’t be surprised if you find many church members not currently registered, or not intending to vote. Let people know that even if they don’t like the “top of the ticket”, there are many down ballot offices that need to be filled by good people. We should vote for every office our conscience will allow us to vote for, and if necessary, vote to just prevent a greater evil from getting elected. Pray.
Campaign Support Every candidate needs support. To “win” enough votes takes time, energy, exposure, and a lot of funds. If you have participated in a campaign before, you know what I’m talking about when I suggest the following:
Find a local candidate and volunteer to walk precincts with campaign literature and talk with neighbors about why you’re supporting this candidate.
Put yard signs in your lawn, or campaign posters in your window. (Get several signs in case the opposition removes them.)
Consider bumper stickers on your vehicles. Send information to like-minded people you know. (Use only verifiable, factual information since your credibility is on the line.)
Volunteer to “man” a phone bank to make calls to registered voters to encourage them to vote.
Finally, donate to candidates…directly to their campaign… instead of to umbrella political organizations.
Pray.
Election Integrity The Integrity of elections is critical. Don’t throw up your hands and say: “There’s nothing we can do!” Directly engage in the ballot processing. Consider:
Offering your home or garage as a designated polling place or Voting Center;
Volunteer to work at or monitor vote collection centers, to see firsthand how things are handled;
Find election integrity organizations willing to train volunteers to observe election ballot processing. (In California, there’s the Election Integrity Project and there are others around the country;
Work with your church leadership to encourage members to vote. Prayer is the bedrock discipline we as Christians are to cultivate. We’re to pray at all times, in all circumstances (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18), giving thanks while doing so. Campaigns, elections, political leaders, our city, state and nation should receive focused prayer attention, and we thank God that He hears and will answer our heartfelt prayers. Pray.
We pray:
That across this land Christians would take the responsibility of voting according to a well-formed
conscience seriously. Pray.
That pastors would stand in their pulpits and speak out boldly for righteousness and justice, and encourage their congregants to fulfill their duties as citizens and vote rightly. 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.
