Day 29

Pray that America would thirst for righteousness. Pray that the Spirit of Truth would be welcomed and honored in our nation. Pray for goodness and godliness to be abundant in each state, city and community. Pray that evil would be exposed and defeated. Pray that the Church would stand strong and be a beacon of light and hope to those lost in sin.
At times it seems that darkness is growing across America. The 700 Club reported that state chaplains are being removed from their duties if they dare to pray in the name of Jesus. Ten Commandment monuments are removed from public places. We see increased acceptance of sinful behavior portrayed and encouraged on television and in magazines – as though evil were good and good were evil.
You may at times have wondered, "How and when will America turn back to God?"
The answer is the same today as it was for nations long ago. God's desire is not for any people to be lost in darkness and sin. God has made a way.
I am the way the truth and the life, no one can come to the Father except through me.
—John 14: 6
God promises to lead us and keep us from falling when we enter into a relationship with Him, through His Son, Jesus Christ. Rules, regulations and religious activity can never bring true life. Real change that is good and positive and godliness that exalts a nation can only come through knowing Jesus.
Pray for America today. Ask God for mercy. Ask God to send His Holy Spirit to convict us of sin and to lead us into true life and liberty.
Ask of Me, and I will surely give the nations as Your inheritance, And the very ends of the earth as Your possession. —Psalm 2:8
Let’s ask God today for America. May Jesus Christ be lifted up across this precious land. |

Jesus said to the people, "I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won't be stumbling through the darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life."
—John 8: 12 |
