A Prayer for Judeo-Christian Values
We are all anxious about the outcome
of the November election. I sincerely believe that god will point our
nation in the right direction, as god has done over the last 236
years.
After the war, in 1945 we were
re-building out nation and much of the world, then came the 1947 court battle
that began the disastrous "separation of church and state" movement.
In 1962 the battle for prayer from public schools. In 1965 the battle that paved
the way for abortion and homosexual marriage. 1973 gave us roe v. Wade. As Sonny
and Cher use to say "and the beat goes on"
Let us pray:
Our heavenly father, we pray for our
republic. We pray that this nation will be allowed to proudly say that we are a
Judeo-Christian nation with Judeo-Christian values. Multiculturalism has no
identifiable faith and apparently no values. Secularism has no god and
where there is no god there is no book of rules.
In this coming election, we pray that
our citizen voters will have the intellect to see through the smoke screen of
deception this administration has perpetrated on the American people. The
election was lost four years ago for four reasons: a weak Republican candidate,
a rhetorically gifted democratic candidate and master of deception, too
many people on the dole from our government. (Give me your vote and i will keep
you warm and feed you) and the complacency, ignorance and naiveté of
the American voter.
We pray heavenly father that a leader
grounded in spiritual matters will come forward and put our nation back on a
godly course.
We pray that our constitution remains
the foundation of our form of government.
We pray in the name of the god of Abraham
and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Amen
