Faith applied in times of difficulty.__ Time to be on our knees

Faith applied in times of difficulty.______ It has personally been hard for me to see so many of my family, friends and colleagues out of work. As we know the real unemployment rate is around 17 percent nationally. Why 17 percent because the government does not count people that have stopped looking for jobs. The unemployment rate for African Americans and Hispanics the jobless rate is even higher. I do not have faith that a government program will restore jobs . I do not have faith in politicians, my faith rest in GOD alone. In fact it is clear to me that our government is corrupt and moving away from GOD and not toward the Lord Jesus.

I am asking my Christian family to join me in prayer and ask the Lord to turn this thing around. I will be asking the Lord Jesus to restore jobs and to heal our land and forgive us for the sins of greed and hedonism. For those of you that agree with me please pray today either at home or in church that the wind of prosperity blow upon the unemployed and the underemployed..

Lord forgive us from the sin of greed

Lord forgive us for devaluing life through acts of abortion

Your eyes saw my unformed substance, and in Your book all the days [of my life] were written before ever they took shape, when as yet there was none of them

1 Cor 6:9

Do you not know that the unrighteous and the wrongdoers will not inherit or have any share in the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived (misled): neither the impure and immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor those who participate in homosexuality,


I am not going to list all of the sins of this nation , but you do get my point. Please join me in prayer today because GOD can and will heal us and our land if we turn this thing around through true repentence..
