National Day of Prayer - Our privilege and responsibility!


What an honor and privilege it is to pray for our nation! It is also our duty as believers. 1 Tim. 2:1-3 "I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone - for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Savior...."
A good number of GHC people came out to pray for our nation on Thursday, 5/6, 2010. For America to change, individuals must change. Therefore, we first humbled ourselves before God and confessed our sins. Then, we prayed for the leaders of this country: for humility, wisdom, holiness, and the fear of God. Our children had their own prayer meeting, lifting up this nation to the Lord.
