Today is day 5 of answering your questions about joining us in building a prayer wall for America.
5. HOW CAN I BE PART OF BUILDING A PRAYER WALL FOR AMERICA?
A remnant of Jesus-believers from each city and each state can have a significant impact! The wall around Jerusalem had points of entry all around. Each of these entry points or gates had a specific purpose and under Nehemiah they were rebuilt. No enemy could penetrate the wall, nor was any enemy allowed through the gates. Every state in America is an entry point/gate that needs to be rebuilt by prayer, guarded through prayer, and used for accomplishing godly purposes. In Nehemiah we see how the prayers of God’s people were heard. God still hears today!
We’d like to invite you to join us in praying for America. What could the future of America look like if God’s people came together like God’s people did under Nehemiah? What could God accomplish in America?
A couple of suggestions.
- What if you gathered with a friend or a small group of friends to passionately pray in agreement together, building that Prayer Wall?
- Consider (re)reading the book of Nehemiah, which will give a biblical context for what we are doing.
- We can start by praying Nehemiah’s prayer. “O LORD, God of heaven, the great and awesome God who keeps his covenant of unfailing love with those who love him and obey his commands, listen to my prayer! Look down and see me praying night and day for your people Israel. I confess that we have sinned against you. Yes, even my own family and I have sinned! We have sinned terribly by not obeying the commands, decrees, and regulations that you gave us through your servant Moses. O Lord, please hear my prayer! Listen to the prayers of those of us who delight in honoring you.” (Nehemiah 1:5-7, 11a NLT)
Won’t you join us in intentional prayer for America? Let’s begin by confessing our own sins. Then let’s cry out to God to bring America and her people back to Him.
