A presidential “National Day of Prayer Proclamation” is usually
made shortly before the “National Day of Prayer” each year (First Thursday in
May.)

For your National Day of Prayer event, you
may want to use Anne Graham Lotz’s "2017
National Prayer" .

The great news is that God's conditional (IF)
promise to "His people," found in 2 Chronicles 7:14, is still
true! We praise God that the Spirit of Prayer is impacting
"grassroots" daily, year round as God's people respond to His
call! It is up to you and me, as individuals, to call on God and follow His
plan, until our spiritual and government leaders awaken to the ungodly,
otherwise helpless state of our nation. We must not wait for them to
awaken and issue the call! LOVE THEM BY PRAYING FOR THEM. They face
insurmountable odds! Let us pray for their spiritual awakening after
we have experienced our own personal one! Be assured of our prayers as God speaks to your heart and
mine. "Search me, O God, and know my heart....."

The links below will help you in preparing and participating in NDP events.
Should we not pray often for our country, our leaders, and our people on a
regular basis all year long? If NDP events do not serve to raise our
consciousness regarding our country's constant need for our prayers, are they
not nearly in vain?
We encourage you to request your mayor to issue a proclamation.
Just click on "Sample Letter to Your Mayor" in the links below. Provide him or her
with a sample proclamation. Click on "Sample
mayoral proclamation" in the links below. Read the proclamation (or better yet, have
your mayor read it at your NDP event where he or she can hear people lift them
up in prayer. Pray earnestly and faithfully for your mayor and local civic
officials all year long! Provide a shield of prayer for your community, state,
and nation. Authentic, God chosen intercessors never quit! As Billy Graham
says, Do 3 things, "...pray, Pray, PRAY!
We will share some of the information and techniques we've used to do that. God
has inspired, led, guided, and helped us through the process. Without Him and
His wisdom, our meager wisdom and resources would bear little or no fruit. ALL glory, praise, and honor goes unto
Him! We seek only His mind and will, to please Him always, and serve Him
faithfully. Our prayer is that one day our nation, "from sea to shining
sea" will once again be filled with the glory of our God, as the waters
cover the sea. What a horrific shame
that our people, our leaders, our churches, and our nation, have drifted so far
away from God's biblical intentions for us that we are no longer a "Godly
nation." It will only get worse if
you (and we) fail to pray! Need we say more? Your head is not in the sand, or
you would not be on this page!
God bless, inspire, challenge, and move you to action concerning what He
would have you do. Pray first, pray secondly, pray..., letting His Holy Spirit
guide you, listen, then respond to God as He gives you His burden, shares His
heart, plants His ideas and vision, and with His all-wise providential timing
and wisdom, directs and sustains you. He is faithful! Praise His holy name!
Thanks for your intercessory prayers. You have ours!
