Time to Pray for America!

IMG_7194

I have a dear friend; Donna Watson.  She is rallying everyone she knows to pray for our country each day.  She and her husband have been encouraging others for several months now to set their alarms for 8:00 p.m. each day.  When your alarm goes off, stop and pray for 1 minute for America.  If you are with family and friends and your alarm goes off, you can stop whatever you are doing and pray together.

“If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” 2 Chronicles 7:14 (NKJV)

Click here and you will find some great resources, ideas and examples of ways to pray for our country.

If you decide to begin this practice each day, I would love for you to leave a comment below or send me a note.  I know it will be an encouragement to Donna to know that others are joining in.

*8 p.m. may not be a time that works for you at all.  If not, you can always choose a time that will work better for you.  I think the point is a concentrated effort to spend one minute a day in prayer for our country.

“I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions and thanksgiving be made for all people-for kings and all those in authority” I Timothy 2:1-2, (NIV)

  1. Thanks Beverly! The Lord tells us to pray without ceasing. He also reminds us how powerful it is for “two or three to be gathered together.” We can make a difference if we just will. May God be with us…
