Hi. Normally, I don't make it a habit to send forwards out on an email
discussion list, but since this particular subject involves both Christians
and the state of our nation, I felt it was appropriate. I may be banned for
this, but at least if I am, I can be proud of myself for taking a stand, and
Jesus may be proud of me as well. Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself.

What is happening to our country?
GOD IS GOOD.....ALL OF THE TIME. I was dismayed when, recently, a family
member of mine said to me with great resignation that Obama will take the
presidency. These words came from someone who in the past has been a great
prayer warrior. What is happening was my question?

Why are we Christians settling and not issuing a battle cry and falling to
our knees and taking our country back?  We allow ourselves to be stripped of
the right to pray at school functions and in school, we have the 10
commandments removed from government places and are told we cannot pray in
school, all the while providing public prayer places for Muslims. What in
the world is going on and why are we being apathetic?  Why aren't we
praying?

Our God is a mighty God who is waiting patiently for us to raise our voices
to heaven to stop the tide of the anti-Christ actions in our world today.
Now we find we have a charismatic candidate for president who does not
respect our flag and refuses to wear one on his lapel except when it becomes
politically expedient, and whose own wife and pastor that he loves, profess
to have strong anti-white feelings, and we sit back and say 'it is a given,
we can do nothing.'

There has never been a time in 2000 years that we can do nothing, never a
time that we must sit back and allow the evil in men's and women's hearts to
take over our world. We should be very afraid, because our apathy is leading
us to perdition.

It is time for all Christian Americans to raise the battle cry and take our
nation back. Maybe McCain on his own cannot defeat Obama but our God can and
He will, if we take to our knees in prayer and raise a mighty cry to the
heavens to 'Save us O Lord.'

We have the power to change the course of this election and to keep a man as
suspect as Barak Obama from leading our country to who knows where with his
message of 'change' - a change which I fear will be away from our Christian
ideals and away from Christ and further away from one nation under God.

...TO..one nation under Allah.

We are great at passing stories and pictures around the internet, but where
are our prayers and prayer warriors praying to stop this tide of Barak
Obama?  God parted the red sea, Jesus raised himself from the dead, and we
can bring our country back to its Christian roots and stop the move to the
rise of Muslims in our country.

We can stop our country from being 'under Allah,' but we must begin to pray,
to pray as if our country and our lives depended on it, because they do. We
can stop all these atrocities against God's commands that have taken root in
our country through something as simple as sincere prayer, a call to God to
deliver us, to forgive us our sins of apathy and to protect us from the evil
that is upon us.

Okay prayer warriors, here is your challenge, start those prayer chains. Get
the spiritual power working on our behalf and stop Barak Obama the proper
way, by calling on our God to save us from the deception that charismatic
preaching is using to lead us on the wrong path.

Stop those who would take God out of our country and our government. Raise
up good men to lead us and protect us. George Bush is being buffeted because
he has fought a holy war against the evils that attack us, and we should not
be surprised because a prophet is not honored in his own country.  But we
should not rest on our laurels and allow ourselves to be taken further off
the path of Christianity and to have God removed from our presence in our
schools, courts, government and businesses.

Invite God into the fray. Ask that His power rest upon us and give us the
victory. Ask him to raise up a mighty army to defend us and to protect our
country as he did in days of old. Let us be victorious... beginning NOW. The
battle is His, but we must call on Him without ceasing and unite our voices
and hearts in prayer and fasting.

Please pass this around to all people of prayer that you know and maybe,
just maybe a more eloquent person of prayer will write something better and
more inspiring and even the rocks will shout that Jesus is Lord, and our
Mighty God is with us bringing the victory for us, and ultimately for Him.

'Be joyful always pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances, for
this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.'  I Thes 5:16-18
