Dear Prayer Partners,

We as Christians must never forget the Lord God and His power to redeem and deliver as we daily see the stability of America degenerating before our very eyes. Our God is alive and hears the prayers of His people. We must never let the fear of man bring a snare to any one of us because our faith is not in man but God Almighty.

Our President Roberta Combs and staff here at the Christian Coalition of America want to encourage you to continue to pray and get involved in the issues facing America and in our campaign "LETS TAKE AMERICA BACK". We need each one of you to help us spread the word to help in our endeavor to save America. We all have a Godly obligation to be involved in our freedoms that we have taken for granted through the years.

Please pray for all elected officials and the upcoming elections, starting in Washington, DC down to our local elected officials. Pray for Christians full of Godly wisdom to be elected.

Pray for Israel and her protection and our military and each family, for safety and blessings, especially for the children of our military families.

Pray for all terrorist to be exposed and dealt with. Pray that all threats to America be uncovered and dismantled.

Pray for the National debt. Please pray the fear of God Almighty fills the hearts of any one that would hurt America or take advantage of us.  read more »

"If the son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed." - John 8:36 (KJV)

President George Washington wrote a prayer addressed to "O most glorious God, in Jesus Christ" and ended it with this: "let me live according to those holy rules which thou hast this day prescribed in thy holy word. Direct me to the true object, Jesus Christ, the way, the truth and the life. Bless o lord all the people of this land." If you haven't known this freedom in Jesus Christ please ask him to come into your heart today and receive true freedom that only he can give. George Washington knew this freedom.

President Abraham Lincoln: "the ways of God are mysterious and profound beyond all comprehension. Who by searching can find him out? God only knows the issue of this business. He has destroyed nations from the map of history for their sins. Nevertheless, my hopes prevail generally above my fears for our republic. The times are dark, the spirits of ruin are abroad in all their power, and the mercy of God alone can save us." America is in a very dark place in history and as a nation we lack true obedience to our lord, please pray for a true national repentance that changes the outcome of this great nation. Thank the lord for each family that paid the ultimate price for our freedom. Because of their dedication and love for America we can celebrate the Fourth of July.  read more »

The United States Flag Code stipulates that as the symbol of a living country, the flag is considered in itself a living thing. The original pledge was published in the September 8, 1892, issue of The Youth's Companion in Boston even though Flag Day goes back past 1777. Woodrow Wilson established Flag Day. On June 14th, 1949 this day of remembrance became the National Flag Day. The phrase "under God" was added to the pledge on June 14, 1954.

THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG IS A BEAUTIFUL DESCRIPTION OF WHAT THE FLAG MEANS TO EACH OF US

I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

"AND YOU SHALL HEAR OF WARS AND RUMORS OF WARS: SEE THAT YE BE NOT TROUBLED: FOR ALL THESE THINGS MUST COME TO PASS BUT THE END IS NOT YET FOR NATION SHALL RISE AGAINST NATION, AND KINGDOM AGAINST KINGDOM: AND THERE SHALL BE FAMINES, AND EARTHQUAKES, IN DIVERS PLACES." - MATTHEW 24:6-7 (KJV)

Dear Prayer Partners,

The last of this month we will be observing our Federal Holiday, National Memorial Day, May 31, 2010. This day is set aside for each of us to reflect with thanksgiving for our freedoms. This is our time to thank the families of our men and women who willingly laid down their lives for each treasured freedom we enjoy here in America. This has come with a great cost to so many of our loved ones and their families. Please take time to pray for each family that has suffered loss and for America in these troubled times. Reflect and remember with thanksgiving every freedom we enjoy as a nation because of the ultimate sacrifice of so many and that we are the beneficiaries of that sacrifice. Let us never forget and take anything for granted.  read more »

"May the Lord answer you in the day of trouble! May the name of the God of Jacob set you securely on high! May he send you help from the sanctuary, and support you from Zion." - Psalms 20:1-2 (NAS)

"And this is the confidence which we have before Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him." - 1 John 5:14-15 (NAS)

"... Casting all your anxiety upon Him, because He cares for you." - 1 Peter 5:7 (NAS)

"... For he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him." - Hebrews 11:6a (NAS)

To Our Prayer Partners,

We are now in the season when our nation comes together for a day to storm heaven for America. We are asking each of you to pray and contact your elected officials on Thursday, May 6th.

A United States Federal Judge has ruled our National Day of Prayer is unconstitutional. There is a Bipartisan group working to overturn this ruling and we thank the Lord for each of these men and women that are taking a strong stand for prayer.

Our elected officials in DC are considering a new Supreme Court Justice.  Please lift this critical appointment up in prayer. Pray for a born again believer and one that takes a strong stand against the abortion issues.

Continue to pray about the health care reform and what is best for our nation and each citizen living in America. Agree with me that the devil cannot rob or steal another thing from the American people. Bind the devil and cast him out and release Godly Holy Spirit favor and blessing on America and each elected official and each citizen in Jesus name.  read more »

"Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me; You will stretch forth Your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and Your right hand will save me. The Lord will perfect that which concerns me; ..." - Psalms 138:7-8a (Amplified Holy Bible)

To Our Valued Prayer Partners,

The Lord is with you and His love never fails toward you. ‘The Lord will perfect that which concerns you.' America is in a time of transition and hardship. Because of this, many of our sisters and brothers in the Lord are in places they never thought they could be. If you are in the midst of a heavy burden today, remember the Lord is there as you release that burden to Him in prayer. 'He promised His right hand will uphold you.' Never let your hope in the Lord go. He is always just in time.

I have found in my own walk with the Lord a peaceful place when I start to feel overwhelmed. I stop what I am doing and go to prayer. This is a secret of the Kingdom for believers. As I pray, the burden lifts and the Holy Spirit moves on that problem. I have been the receiver many times in my life of the assurance and peace that can only come through prayer, trusting Jesus 'the author and finisher of my faith.' The problems that seemed to be too big for me never were. 'He has always made a way of escape.' He will do the same for you.

Please know that we are praying for you and if you need more prayer send your prayer request to us as we are here for you.  read more »

"I AM THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE" - JOHN 11:25a

Dearest Prayer Partners,

Easter is our season to rejoice and be glad for "Christ our Passover lamb has been sacrificed" and is alive for ever more and dwells in our hearts.

This is good news for each of us. Easter is our most important yearly celebration. We as Christians celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ our risen Lord every day but especially at the Easter season when our hearts turn toward Calvary. We as Christians must remember that His death gives us the only true freedom from the slavery of bondage and sin. What a Redeemer!

Roberta Combs, our president and all of the staff of the Christian Coalition of America pray that each family experiences a fresh move of the Resurrection power of the risen Lord this beautiful season of the year. We pray you will be filled and refreshed by the Holy Spirit that dwells within you. We pray that the love of God touches each member of your family in a very special way.

Please continue to pray for all elected officials and the Health Care Reform. Pray for Israel, our military and families, all prayer request that come to the Christian Coalition, poverty, world hunger and water supplies, salvation of the nations of world, youth of America, sickness, marriages, economic problems, the housing problems and all who can't find work. Pray God will open doors and supply each need in this very difficult time in America.  read more »

"And all things you ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive." - Matthew 21:22 (NAS)

Prayer Partners, the next few days and weeks are very critical for our nation and for each family of this great nation as Congress moves forward with the Health Care Reform Bill.

Millions of Americans are against the reform for many reasons, including the great cost to each one in revenue and taxes. Please pray and seek the Lord Jesus for wisdom for each elected official. Pray each will recognize the truth of this reform and take a strong stand against it. Ask the Lord Jesus to give great discernment to each elected official. Pray they will not be deceived by words or swayed by these words but will have a clear mind in each matter. Pray their hearts truly desire what is best for the American people. Pray each elected official will have the 'Mind of Christ'. Pray that the Senate will not use the "Reconciliation" approach while this governmental run health care plan is up for vote. We can not afford, as Americans, to watch any more of our freedoms vanish. We all must do our part in prayer. The Word of God says, "Not by might nor by power but by my Spirit, says the Lord of host" - Zechariah 4:6b.  read more »

TO OUR PRAYER PARTNERS,

"For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms." Ephesians 6:12 (NIV)

We as a Nation are living in very dangerous and urgent times. Christians must be diligent to put the armor of God on daily for protection to stand against the fiery darts of the enemy given to us in Ephesians 6. As you stand with your armor on, please pray for the protection of America and each Nation that stands for true freedom. Our struggles are not against flesh and blood but the evil one that would like to destroy America as a Christian Nation. I am asking each intercessor to submit yourself to the Lord Jesus according to James 1 and resist the devil from America and he will have to flee. Bind in Jesus name all terror attacks, any planned destruction on American soil or against this Nation. Ask the Holy Spirit to uncover all plans and assignments against America and our people in Jesus name. Agree with us that no destruction can ever touch America again in Jesus name. Cover our Nation with the Precious Blood of Jesus Christ for protection and cleansing of all iniquities, starting with the first President of our Nation and every one in the United States then until this present time. Ask the Holy Spirit to hover over our Nation and bring true repentance and restore us back to "one Nation under God." In Jesus name.  read more »
