I generally will NOT use this sight for forwards but I believe this message 
MUST be heard.  This message was sent to us by Jim and
Sharon McPherson, our former Sunday School teachers and very GODLY people.

This is from a retired missionary friend.  I, too, believe it is our only
hope to save America.  God has the answer. 

2 Chron. 7:14 

I remember reading about the children of Israel who turned from God time and
time again, only to realize their mistake and pray for forgiveness. Each
time, God would forgive them and they would walk with him for a time. So, I
am going to ask you to join me in praying for our nation every day.. Please
read the email below. God is in control. 

May God Have Mercy On America; Protect Our Troops 

When we were in Texarkana last week, there were signs in people's yards that
said, "America, prayer is our only hope" - with 2 Chron. 7:14 underneath. We
certainly need God's help! 

I have no idea who started this, but I certainly agree with this e-mail. I
heard a preacher on TV tonight who said if we pray for our nation that
things will turn around. 

After a day of contemplation and soul searching, I have decided to reach out
to my friends and relatives and ask you to do something that has been
troubling me for a long time. 

Our nation is/has been on the slippery slope for a long time. If you look
around you will find corruption, greed, moral decay, and a steady move away
from the things that made us great. The principles upon which this nation
was founded are no longer our backbone..
However, we can reverse this trend. 

2 Chron. 7:14 in God's Word, He states,
"If my people who are called by my
name will humble themselves and pray
and seek my face and turn from their
wicked ways, then I will hear from
heaven and will forgive their sin and
heal their land." 

I am convinced that we must pray for our nation and its leaders and ask for
forgiveness. So I ask you to join me in this plea to our Lord. 

Would you please send this to people in your address book? Ask them to pray
EVERY DAY. (25 to the 5th power is 9,765,625 people.) IMAGINE if each person
reaches TEN others... Or all TWENTY FIVE! 

If you do and they comply, we will lift up millions and millions of prayers
a day to our Creator. He will hear us, and in faith will answer.
Here's a quote from Ronald Reagan:
"If we ever forget that we are one nation under God, then we will be a
nation gone under." 

I truly believe this is why the United States of America is in the shape
it's in today.
Most people have forgotten that we are ONE NATION UNDER GOD! Let us as
Christians stand up and remind people of this.
