    Almost 12 hours in to our National Day of Prayer and Satan is fighting back hard in the hearts and minds of some. He can fight back all he wants because even he knows he loses in the end.

    God’s Promise and Warning
    2Chronicles 7: 11-22

    11Thus Solomon finished the house of the LORD and the king’s palace, and successfully completed all that he had planned on doing in the house of the LORD and in his palace.

    12Then the LORD appeared to Solomon at night and said to him, “I have heard your prayer and have chosen this place for Myself as a house of sacrifice. 13“If I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among My people, 14and My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 15“Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to the prayer offered in this place. 16“For now I have chosen and consecrated this house that My name may be there forever, and My eyes and My heart will be there perpetually. 17“As for you, if you walk before Me as your father David walked, even to do according to all that I have commanded you, and will keep My statutes and My ordinances, 18then I will establish your royal throne as I covenanted with your father David, saying, ‘You shall not lack a man to be ruler in Israel.’

    19“But if you turn away and forsake My statutes and My commandments which I have set before you, and go and serve other gods and worship them, 20then I will uproot you from My land which I have given you, and this house which I have consecrated for My name I will cast out of My sight and I will make it a proverb and a byword among all peoples. 21“As for this house, which was exalted, everyone who passes by it will be astonished and say, ‘Why has the LORD done thus to this land and to this house?’ 22“And they will say, ‘Because they forsook the LORD, the God of their fathers who brought them from the land of Egypt, and they adopted other gods and worshiped them and served them; therefore He has brought all this adversity on them.’”


    Joshua 24:15
    15“If it is disagreeable in your sight to serve the LORD, choose for yourselves today whom you will serve: whether the gods which your fathers served which were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living; but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”
    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    It's strange seeing the words trump" and "prayer" in the same sentence.

    So, how is the day of prayer going? Has it worked yet?

    I have to say you chaps are doing a remarkable job of both typing on here whilst also going full throttle with the old praying lark. Multi-tasking at its finest. As a man who is no stranger to kneeling beside a computer screen with my hands clasped tightly, occasionally uttering a muffled cry of "Jesus Christ", i appreciate the dedication and fortitude such an onerous task requires.

    I can't say i'm too familiar with these official National Days of Prayer, or more usually, National Days of Mourning. It tends to be something done in ramshackle, tin-pot countries like Uzbekistan, Bhutan or France. Personally, ive never needed any encouragement from the government to make me miserable, living, as i do, on this wretched rainswept rock of doom.

    Well, good luck with the praying and that.

    A prayer and $1.85 will get you a cup of coffee at Starbucks.

    That should tell you what a prayer is worth.

    Prayers of the righteous always "work", according to the purposes of God. If one has no faith, one must ask God for faith so he can pray wisely and according to his will. Very simple really. So, simple that wise men stumble over it and fools fight it.
