What if we prayed?

Judges 6: 39 – 40
Then Gideon said to God, "Do not be angry with me. Let me make just one more request. Allow me one more test with the fleece.
This time make the fleece dry and the ground covered with dew." That night God did so. Only the fleece was dry…

I watched with great interest last night, the Presidents public address, as it has to do with the world enemy, ISIS.
Afterwards, military strategists picked apart and measured the President’s plan.

The only thing I would have to say in opposition of the Presidents strategy, was that he never mentioned the need for prayer.
Gideon on the other hand, when he faced a formidable enemy, prayer was the first part of his military strategy.

England’s Prime Minister, Winston Churchill called his nation to prayer, in a most desperate time.
On May 26th, 1940—the lives of 500,000 British soldiers were saved—and many believe prayer was the key.

What if we as a nation, took upon the task of daily prayer?
Our church has had a time of prayer & fasting every Tuesday—which invite people to come to church to pray.
Honestly, only  a very small handful ever do, but I’m grateful for those who come to pray.

The United States of America needs prayer, like it has never needed it before.
Days are getting desperate, and God waits from above, and yearns to hear His people intercede.

The only thing that can thwart the plan of the enemy, is our great God.
What enemy will you be facing today?

Just be sure of this—whatever or whomever that enemy is—they serve absolutely no threat, to our great God.

Victory only happens, when get on our knees…
