CHICAGO, SPONSORED BY THE CHICAGO DAILY NEWS:

Q. “Mr. President, what part has religion played in your
advancement from local official to the highest office in tour land?”

THE PRESIDENT: “Well, a system of morals is necessary for the
welfare of any individual or any nation. The greatest system of morals
in the history of the world is that set out in the Sermon on the Mount,
which I would advise each of you to study with everything you have.”

DAY 8 - DAILY HISTORY (MILITARY) - JUNE 1, 2010

JIMMY CARTER, KEEPING THE FAITH - MEMOIRS OF A
PRESIDENT, PUBLISHED 1982:

I was particularly impressed when the officers and enlisted
leaders of the armed forces visited...More than any other group, they
were likely to make some reference to their prayers for us or to say,
“God be with you.” Somehow, this emphasis on their religious faith
gave me a good feeling. I experienced a sense of brotherhood with
them, and remembered from my own eleven years in the Navy that it
was members of the military services who most wanted to maintain
peace based on a strong America.

DAY 7 - DAILY BIBLE VERSE (DEATH FOR A FRIEND) - MAY 31, 2010

John 15:13 (King James Version)


Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

DAY 7 - DAILY PRAYER (MEMORIAL DAY) - MAY 31, 2010

Patriotism is remembering the past, respecting the present and preparing for the future.
Patriotism is not what you say, it's what you do.
Patriotism is awe and wonder at what is and what can be.
Patriotism is a " can do" attitude.
Patriotism is taking part, not copping out.
Patriotism is duty and diligence.
Patriotism is an appreciation of peace and a willingness to defend it .

"Dear Lord , "For Such A time as this" in Our history of Government in USA  the right kind of Patriotism is needed more than ever.  Lets us all consider it's cost. And more than that be willing to pay that price to bring USA back to her foundation of Truth ,Honor and Courage to do the right thing to keep her Free.

Whereas this nation has been conceived in prayer and devotion
by men and women who were moved under God to found a nation
where principles of right should form the lasting cornerstone; and

been fostered by a worthy posterity...I...invite my fellow citizens to
pay homage on this day to a noble dead who sleep in homeland, beneath
the sea or on foreign field that we who survive might enjoy the blessings
of peace and happiness.

America Mourns

As a people, we have seen such tragedy in this nation.  From oil laden waters, to towns destroyed by tornadoes.  We each have known great suffering, sorrow, and loss in one way or another.  As a nation, we must seek the comfort of the Holy Spirit, and the healing of JEHOVAH-ROPHE - "The Lord Who Heals" Ex. 15:22-26. From "rophe" ("to heal"); implies spiritual, emotional as well as physical healing. (Jer. 30:17, 3:22; Isa. 61:1) God heals body, soul and spirit; all levels of man's being.

DAY 6 - DAILY BIBLE VERSE (MOURN) - MAY 30, 2010

Matthew 5:4 (NIV)

 ⁴Blessed are those who mourn,
      for they will be comforted.

DAY 6 - DAILY PRAYER (MOURNING) - MAY 30, 2010

Bless those who mourn, eternal God, with the comfort of your love that they may face each new day with hope and the certainty that nothing can destroy the good that has been given. May their memories become joyful, their days enriched with friendship, and their lives encircled by your love. Amen.

--c 1991 Vienna Cobb Anderson

DAY 6 - DAILY HISTORY (MOURNING) - MAY 30, 2010

GEORGE W. BUSH, SEP. 14, 2001, NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER
& REMEMBRANCE, NATIONAL CATHEDRAL:


This world He created is of moral design. On this national day
of prayer and remembrance, we ask almighty God to watch over our
nation, and grant us patience and resolve in all that is to come. We
pray that He will comfort and console those who now walk in sorrow.
We thank Him for each life we now must mourn, and the promise of a
life to come. As we have been assured, neither death nor life, nor
angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to
come, nor height nor depth, can separate us from God’s love. 
May He bless the souls of the departed. May He comfort our own. 
And may He always guide our country. God bless America.

REASON FOR PRAYING AGAINST ABORTION TODAY

Abortions by video to expand across the U.S.
by Tom Strode — BP

http://www.christianexaminer.com/Articles/Articles%20Jun10/Art_Jun10_13.html?sms_ss=twitter

DAY 5 - DAILY BIBLE VERSE - MAY 29, 2010

Jeremiah 1:5 (New International Version)

 ⁵ "Before I formed you in the womb I knew ^[a] you,
       before you were born I set you apart;
       I appointed you as a prophet to the nations."

DAY 5 - DAILY PRAYER (PRAYER TO END ABORTION) - MAY 29, 2010

Prayer to end abortion in the USA:


God, Our Father in Heaven:

We thank you for this country, and for our freedom. We pray for the wisdom to protect and preserve this freedom given by You without corruption. We pray for life and freedom for all your children, born and unborn. We seek your guidance to find a way to end abortion in the USA.

We pray for our government leaders, that they may protect and honor life from conception to natural death. That they may use their position of power to help the powerless. We pray for the clergy to have the courage to speak out, to educate the people. That they may lift up the unborn in prayer and provide good council to all that come to them.

We pray for the American people to speak out against abortion. To have the strength to share their stories and their pain in order to bring the light to those currently in the dark. Especially those who have experienced abortion personally, let them encourage others to make the right choice. Send your healing to those who are hurting and teach us how to be there for those in need. We pray for all women currently thinking about abortion. That they may find support from those around them - family, friends, even strangers but especially the fathers. May the fathers support and encourage the mothers to choose life.

We pray for a way to show the atrocity of abortion to all of America, to change hearts and minds. To break the chains of abortion, and for the dramatic conversion of all abortionists and abortion workers. May the scales fall from their eyes and may they see the innocence of life in the unborn and vow to protect it. Grant us ideas and talents to bring about a wide scale change of heart across America.


Amen.

DAY 5 - DAILY HISTORY (ABORTION) - MAY 29, 2010

RONALD REAGAN, JAN. 19, 1982, NEWS CONFERENCE:

I have been one who believes that abortion is the taking of a
human life...The fact that they could not resolve the issue of when life
begins was a finding in and of itself. If we don’t know, then shouldn’t
we morally opt on the side of life? If you came upon an immobile
body and you yourself could not determine whether it was dead or
alive, I think that you would decide to consider it alive until somebody
could prove it was dead. You wouldn’t get a shovel and start covering
it up. And I think we should do the same thing with regard to abortion.




GEORGE W. BUSH, AUG. 6, 2002, SIGNING BORN-ALIVE
INFANTS PROTECTION ACT H.R. 2175:
The history of our country is the story of a promise, a promise
of life and liberty made at our founding and fulfilled over the centuries
in our laws. It is a story of expanding inclusion and protection for the
ignored and the weak and the powerless. And now we extend the
promise and protection to the most vulnerable members of our society...
The Born Alive Infants Protection Act..ensures that every infant born
alive-including an infant who survives an abortion procedure-is
considered a person under federal law...The Born Alive Infants
Protection Act establishes a principle in America law and American
conscience: there is no right to destroy a child who has been born
alive. A child who is born has intrinsic worth and must have the full
protection of our laws...Unborn children are members of the human
family...They reflect our image, and they are created in God’s own image.

Day 4 - DAILY BIBLE VERSE (OBEY) - MAY 28, 2010

Deuteronomy 28:1-3 (New International Version)

Blessings for Obedience

 ¹ If you fully obey the LORD your God and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations on earth. ² All these blessings will come upon you and accompany you if you obey the LORD your God: ³ You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country.

DAY 4 - DAILY PRAYER (PRAY THAT YOU REIGN) - MAY 28, 2010

Father in heaven we pray that you would reign as the one true living God of this land we call America. We pray that the nations love of idolatry , power, and money would come to an end. We pray that people would come back to more of a fear of you, than pleasing the god of this world. We pray that the true manifest power of Jesus would come back to our churches, making the world jealous of your presence and favour on our lives. We pray that you would make our enemies our footstool, and that Jesus Christ would be supreme once again in this great nation. 

We ask for your forgiveness and lack of passion the church has had in the past. We know that religion can not save us, church can not save us, only your blood and the cross give us true power. So know Lord we turn our backs on the world’s system, as the love of many is waxing cold, our love for you if ever growing. We the bride of Christ are preparing for your soon return getting our eyes and attentions off the temporal things to things of the eternal. Save us by your mercy and grace Father , revive the hearts of your children once again we pray in Jesus name amen.

DAY 4 - DAILY HISTORY (WILLIAM MCKINLEY) - MAY 28, 2010

WILLIAM MCKINLEY, MAR. 4, 1897, 1ST INAUGURAL:


I assume the arduous and responsible duties of President of
the United States, relying upon the support of my countrymen and
invoking the guidance of Almighty God. Our faith teaches that there
is no safer reliance than upon the God of our fathers, who has so
singularly favored the American people in every national trial, and
who will not forsake us so long as we obey His commandments and
walk humbly in His footsteps...
It is consoling and encouraging to realize that free speech, a
free press, free thought, free schools, the free and unmolested right of
religious liberty and worship, and free and fair elections are dearer and
more universally enjoyed to-day than ever before...
Illiteracy must be banished from the land if we shall attain
that high destiny as the foremost of the enlightened nations of the
world which, under Providence, we ought to achieve...
I would have all my countrymen observe: “I will faithfully
execute the office of the President of the United States, and will, to the best of my ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States.” This is the obligation I have reverently taken
before the Lord Most High. To keep it will be my single purpose, my
constant prayer.
