Let us not forget that our power and strength comes from God. The hope of America are the praying people of God who repent of their sins and the sins of America and who seek the face of God in prayers for others. We are intercessors for those who have lost their hope.
2Ch 7:14 if 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 and will forgive their sin and heal their land.
It is our duty to pray a hedge, a wall of protection keeping the evil from our nation and our loved ones.
Job 1:8 And the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil?"
Job 1:9 Then Satan answered the LORD and said, "Does Job fear God for no reason?
Job 1:10 Have you not put a hedge around him and his house and all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land.
Neh 4:7 But when Sanballat and Tobiah and the Arabs and the Ammonites and the Ashdodites heard that the repairing of the walls of Jerusalem was going forward and that the breaches were beginning to be closed, they were very angry.
Neh 4:8 And they all plotted together to come and fight against Jerusalem and to cause confusion in it.
Neh 4:9 And we prayed to our God and set a guard as a protection against them day and night.
Satan stirs up trouble from without and from within. The Lord Jesus Christ has defeated satan and by the authority of Jesus Christ we overcome all enemies of God. We were once enemies of God before we were saved.
2Ti 2:22 So flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart.
2Ti 2:23 Have nothing to do with foolish, ignorant controversies; you know that they breed quarrels.
2Ti 2:24 And the Lord's servant must not be quarrelsome but kind to everyone, able to teach, patiently enduring evil,
2Ti 2:25 correcting his opponents with gentleness. God may perhaps grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth,
2Ti 2:26 and they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, after being captured by him to do his will.
We are examples of born again disciples of Christ. Be his person in work and in prayers all in the precious name of Jesus. As we remember 911 we should also remember that Jesus defeated the devil on the cross and is risen to eternal life. Our hope is eternal and our life is abundant in Him.
