Prayer & Democracy
It is extremely difficult to be humble and/or react with humility in today’s culture. Satan wants you to fight with anger, become hateful, and depend on your efforts instead of looking to God for help. God says in the Bible, to humble oneself, pray fervently, seek His will in all you do, and not to dependent upon worldly institutions. A Biblical premise: Democracy does not depend on your vote but was built on prayers, and it is your prayers that keep democracy alive and God’s will within the democratic process. It is time to pray and pray with fervency and ask for God’s will and wisdom for America. Good things happen not by might nor by man’s power but by how hard His people pray and repent for all the wrong that is in America. America needs Jesus and only Jesus can fix America.

The United States of America was created by God’s miracles, in His perfect timing, moving through greatly outnumbered, but passionate Holy Spirit-inspired individuals, seeking the Liberty of Christ (Luke 4:18 " He has sent Me… to bring liberty to the captives" ) instead of the tyranny of kings.
Knowing they needed His Hand, the Continental Congress held eight days of "humiliation, fasting and prayer" during the seven-year Revolutionary War. After His miracles brought about victory in the War, issues arose between States under the weak "Articles of Confederation." Delegates gathered again at Philadelphia in 1787 to attempt to resolve the divisions. At the beginning of the Convention George Washington, hero of the Revolutionary War, upon being voted head of the Convention, said: " Let us raise a standard to which the wise and honest can repair. The event is in the hand of God." When divisions arose, prayers to God each morning were performed; divisions began to be healed. At the conclusion of the Convention in 1787, whereby God’s Providence a way was found to connect the States into a stronger, liberty-based, union, one lady asked Benjamin Franklin what the delegates had created. Franklin said: " A republic, madam, if you can keep it." (From Capitol Hill Prayer Partners, March, 2024)
It is time to uphold our republic, America’s democracy, by praying and allowing God’s will to take place in our public institutions. Democracy only works through Christian people praying. It’s time for us to pray like our Founding Fathers prayed. Let’s find grace, mercy, and God’s love to reign over our country again! It is through unity and prayer that God’s purposes will be implemented in America’s democracy. May it be said of us, that we prayed and God heard our prayers
