First Step Prayer #4

When God first laid this First Step Prayer on my heart I wanted to be obedient but I questioned is this really God speaking to my heart or is it a grandiose Leon idea.  As things have happened, more shootings, reading Nikki's book, the first meeting and even the prayers of those at the first meeting have convinced me this really was God speaking to me. We need to be tools of unity for our country. Everything we hear from the media seems to be trying to divide us. If it is about the President, it will have a negative slant on it. What is happening in our country is an attempt to overthrow a duly elected President for one reason only.  This President is doing amazing things and the left does not want him to succeed. The left is afraid he will win in 2020, they have nobody to put up against him. If the election were held today, the President would win by a landslide. If they can't take him out they at least want to cast doubt on his abilities. It is more clear than ever that God put him there for such a time as this. I can't predict the future but the left will double down to try and destroy the best President in my lifetime. In Nikki's book, you can read about even President Trump's cabinet working against him. He is the Commander in Chief, we voted him in to set the agenda, it is not up to his underlings. They are to advise and support him. The Church, the faith community needs to pray for our President. What we are facing in this country is a spiritual attack.  The left wants socialism and they probably believe they want a good thing. All we have to do is look anywhere socialism has been tried and it does not work, it destroys. They promised in Venezuela to take from corporate the wealth and give it to the populace, much like we are hearing today, but it destroyed Venezuela. Not too many years ago, they were a rich country and bought the lie. Now they are hungry, their freedoms are gone and they are oppressed. I don't care how good it sounds today, socialism will take away our freedoms and destroy our wealth and then who will be the beacon of light to the world? We need to pray for our country. That is one of the reasons there is a fight against Christianity, In any country where there are freedoms, there are Christians.  When there are few Christians there is less freedom. It really is what has blessed this nation is our Judeo-Christian roots. We are by far the greatest nation on earth because of it. Christians are the salt of the earth and where we are we bless the society. We are a preservative, we save the freedoms. It is because of Christianity that slavery was abolished in this country. Yes, there were Christians that supported slavery, and owned slaves,  I don't deny that. But still, it was abolished. Women were given equal rights, we didn't start off that way, but we got better as time went on. It would not have happened without the Christian base. The anti -Christian element in this nation will take away our freedoms. We need to pray for our country. We look at what the left has done already, our women and children are not safe in a bathroom when the left succeeds to allow males in any bathroom they choose. The left has pushed an agenda to allow male bodies to compete as women and has dominated women's sports, this is not a win for women or for society. Slowly are freedoms and our safety is being destroyed from within. The faith community needs to stand in the gap and pray, this is spiritual warfare and it is fought in the heavens. It has become clear to me this is God asking us to call on him.  The eyes of our younger generation need to be opened, they are blinded by hate, it is not love at the base of their movement. It is for power and not the well being of our nation. We need God's help and every Christian needs to be praying. We will not win in the ballot box, we will win on our knees. It may affect the ballot box, but it will be God moving because of the prayers of God's people that will save our country from the forces that are trying to destroy it. We do not trust in horses and chariots but we do trust in the name of the Lord our God.  The Lord our God can bring victory if we the faith community will get on our knees and pray. 2 Chronicles 7:14.
