911 National Day of Prayer deals with the heart of the matter, the heart of the issue for America.
It’s purpose is to confront and deal with America’s spiritual descent from God and God’s call for the nation to return to God’s call for His people to repent and for revival.
2 Chronicles 7:14 – to seek His face – To Pray – To Humble ourselves – To turn from our evil ways (repentance)
There have been many calls to days of prayer.
What makes this different is:
This is a National Day of Prayer and Repentance.
It is linked to a prophetic message It is taking place on 9/11. It is a call not only to pray, but also includes a specific call to God’s people to repent.
We do so on 9/11 for these reasons:
9/11, more than any other day, was a national wake up call
9/11 epitomized our dependence on God and our helplessness without Him
9/11 caused multitudes to pray and to gather in Houses of Worship across the land
Since 9/11, America has not grown closer to God, but much farther away
The purpose of this National Day of Prayer and Repentance is
to confess our national sins, the sins of America
:
For the killing of millions of the unborn
For sexual immorality, carnality, materialism
For increasingly driving God out of our national life
For increasingly rejecting His ways
For an increasingly Godless culture
For pride and self-reliance without God
To confess our sins as God’s people:
For complacency
For compromise with the world
For compromise with His word
For worldliness and sin
For failing to be the lights we were called to be
For failing to boldly proclaim the Gospel of salvation and the truth of His word
To pray for –first and overall for God’s mercy on America
That this nation return to its foundation
That America return to God
For repentance on every level and in every way
For revival for the church as a whole, and individually for each of God’s people
Whatever it takes for that to happen
To pray for – second and specifically
The government, the leadership, the executive, legislative and judicial branches,
the federal and sate governments, the military
The cities, the coasts, the heartland
Families and marriages
The Younger generation
All those outside the kingdom – for salvation
For churches and pastors
For unity in God, for purity in the word, and cleansing from sin, public and secret; for uncompromised boldness to stand, for the anointing of the Spirit, to light up and overcome the darkness
To pray overall and ultimately that God’s will be done concerning America!
Feel free to plan and hold special gatherings, assemblies, prayer walks, media events, or other events on this day. There will also be a special gathering in New York City on the morning of 9/11, and another special gathering in Washington, D.C. later in the day. More information will be posted as available. Check back frequently for updates.
