Make This Sunday (June 2) Your National Day of Prayer!

By: American Decency Staff

 

Rev. Franklin Graham and 250+ Christian leaders are asking followers of Jesus Christ across our nation to set aside this coming Sunday, June 2, as a special day of prayer for the President, Donald J. Trump.

We here, at the American Decency Association, urge you to join these leaders, congregations, and others in calling out to Father God on behalf of our president. After all, this is something the Apostle Paul exhorts us to do, in I Timothy 2:1-4. “I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.”

The attacks against this man never cease.  After lengthy and in-depth investigations he is found to be not guilty; yet the Left continues to hound him and desires to see him out of office and in jail. There are those who have threatened him and others who have offered payment to see harm come to him. The number of times that celebrities have made his death the theme of their “entertainment” goes way beyond any other president in our history. Even in the last couple of days Cher tweeted that she would like to see President Trump in jail and raped. She removed it, but made sure people knew that its removal was not an apology. These things are unacceptable yet they have become common fare from the media and the Left.

These threats don’t stop with the man in the oval office; they extend to his family and his supporters as well. Neither do they stop with media and political figures; the vitriol that spews forth from college campuses (yes, even “Christian” colleges), from educators and students alike, would make any one of us blush or start to run.

God has given us a reprieve; what will we do with it?

Let us repent of our apathy and our “business as usual” attitudes. Let us support President Trump with prayer that God will protect, strengthen, and guide him. Let us support our president by standing with him in his good decisions and calling him out in his poor ones. Let’s take this opportunity to prayerfully teach our children and young adults Biblical concepts. Let June 2 be a time to come together (whether we agree about the man in office or not) and pray for President Trump as God would have us to do—that he would do right and good and come to a saving and/or growing knowledge of Jesus. Let June 2 be a catalyst for us to come together more frequently with our children and young adults with praise and thanksgiving that God is sovereign and that He can move the president’s heart, even as He can move waters. What a blessing to know that God can turn that heart and mind whichever way He desires. (Proverbs 21:1)

God has given us a reprieve; what will we do with it?

Let us take this reprieve and make it a godly and worthwhile reprieve for the sake of our children and our nation, so that all might “come unto the knowledge of the truth!”

God has given us a reprieve; what will we do with it?

We urge you to ask your pastor to lead his congregation in praying for the President. We urge you to encourage your church’s Sunday schools and other groups to pray in accordance with this Biblical mandate I Timothy 2:1-4). We compel you to reach out to others who claim the name of Christ and to your family members, coming together in unity on behalf of our president, for the sake of our nation, and for the glory of God.
