There are many ministries promoting prayer for America.
What differentiates American Patriots in Prayer, and why, with so
many other prayer ministries, do you believe another is needed?
That is
a great question.
First:
There are many excellent ministries calling God's people to prayer for
America. Often, but not always, these groups are affiliated with
particular denominations or emphases that are not inclusive of all
true believers throughout God's diversified church. American Patriots
in Prayer is a patriotic prayer ministry calling all true Christians,
regardless of their denominational affiliation, to unite together in
repentance and fervent prayer. Our teaching is applicable to Roman
Catholics as well as to Baptists and to Charismatics, etc.
Our scriptural based teaching is completely non sectarian and can
easily be adapted for use in any church setting where believers
are willing to gather together to seek God. APIP groups will
meet regularly in their respective local church settings or in home
prayer groups. These individual APIP groups will meet to pray for
America as Methodists, Presbyterians, Lutherans, Roman Catholics,
Baptists, Mennonites, Independents, etc. Then all of these individual
and distinct APIP groups meeting throughout a region will be invited
to come together monthly to unite as one in prayer for America. At
this monthly regional prayer meeting Christians from many groups and
denominations will gather together with united hearts lifting one
voice to God as they intercede for national repentance and an American
awakening.
Second:
Many existing patriotic prayer ministries have two
predominant objectives. First, they seek to fulfill the
clarion scriptural admonition revealed in I Timothy 2:1-2
"Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers,
intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and
all who are in authority...". Second, they emphasize intercession
for cultural issues and conservative political causes. In no way are
we diminishing the importance of these objectives. Although we also
pray for these very same things, APIP exists to proclaim first and
foremost a message of repentance. Without God’s miraculous
intervention in response to the nationwide church united in repentance
and prayer, political efforts to change the system from within the
system are like trying to extinguish hell’s inferno with a squirt gun
in one hand while attempting to catch nuclear bombs with a butterfly
net held in the other. The battles pro-life activists are winning
might deliver the Whitehouse, the Senate and the House of
Representatives into the hands of pro-life politicians. As great as
political victories are which strengthen the pro-life movement, they
cannot win God’s grace to deliver us from the consequences our Country
is facing for shedding the innocent blood of fifty million unborn
babies. Even if the Supreme Court consisted of a conservative pro-life
majority that overturned Roe V. Wade, that in itself would not pardon
America from the sentence that justice is demanding for our
thirty-four year, national atrocity. Deliverance from the
reprehensible curse this holocaust has inflicted upon our Nation is
impossible without seeking and finding God's grace that will grant
national repentance for America’s blood guiltiness.
Changing our laws will not wash away our horrific crimes against
innocent humanity.
Third: A message of repentance must be
proclaimed throughout the entire church all across America. All church
leaders and all believers must hear the word of the Lord. America is
facing destruction at the hands of her enemies because we have
slaughtered millions of innocent babies. With the shedding of this
blood we made a blood covenant with death that has empowered hell to
destroy America. There is no judicial ruling or military strategy that
can avert the destruction our fallen Christian nation will soon reap.
Do we actually think that right wing conservative politics can save us
from hell's molten fury? Without national repentance America will be
brutally besieged and catastrophically judged. The church of the Living
God must fall on her knees and repent for the abomination that has
sown the wrath and desolation that an ignorant, unremorseful America
is now beginning to reap. God has not forsaken the covenants made
between Himself and America’s Christian founding fathers; but America
forsook God when our Supreme Court made our blood covenant with hell
called Roe V. Wade. For thirty-four brutal years we have walked in
that satanic covenant. Daily our covenant with hell is renewed in
fresh blood as we sacrifice our sons and daughters in cold blooded
murder as offerings to satan on sadistic surgical altars. Abortion is
the ultimate idolatry and the vilest form of unrestrained, satanic
worship. This covenant with Lucifer sealed with the blood of our
children has enthroned death to reign in America. Only deep, national
repentance will revoke America’s blood covenant with hell, release us
from Satan’s reign of tyranny and restore divine favor to our nation.
Fifty
million times we have violated God’s law that declares...“Thou
shalt not kill”. Only the prayers of the nationwide
church can lead our Country into repentance. Nothing less than
sweeping repentance will cleanse us from our appalling, national sin
and rescind the terrifying penalty our wickedness has sown. American
Patriots in Prayer realizes that repentance for our slaughter provides
the only authentic hope for the rebirth of One Nation Under God. Our
objective is nothing less than Divine intervention leading to an
American awakening. A spiritual awakening would soon lead our
reprobate court back to judicial sanity. It would usher in the dawning
of a cultural restoration and birth the promise of a political
reformation. Therefore, praying for national repentance is our primary
calling and the unwavering focus of American Patriots in Prayer.
Fourth: American
Patriots in Prayer is a ministry that does more than declare the need
for prayer by distributing materials that encourage believers to pray.
Although our materials are moving and inspirational even more
importantly our prayer meetings are graced with Divine power. Our
teaching is biblical and scholarly and our praying is spiritual and
practical. With the help and support of local church leaders, we are
planting and organizing APIP prayer groups all across America. Our
APIP leaders travel to and live temporarily in regions where pastors,
intercessors, and other church leaders have committed themselves to
this great cause. These local leaders assist us by giving of their
time while they use their influence and invest their spiritual gifts
and ministry resources to advance this mission of national
prayer. This ministry is financed by the sacrifice and generosity of
those Patriots in Prayer who understand how valuable this ministry is
and how costly it will be if our Nation does not repent. As believers
give their time, their talent and their treasure we are enabled
to work together with them to establish intercessory prayer groups for
America throughout their region. These groups are being established as
APIP leaders lead weekly meetings with
foundational instruction followed by prayer. Our method consists of a
biblical curriculum, followed by inspirational demonstration that is
reinforced as everyone in attendance is encouraged to participate.
This proven biblical strategy not only moves people's hearts to
pray....it moves the hand of God to answer those prayers. APIP
leaders spend twelve weeks establishing each APIP prayer group. The
new groups are scheduled to meet on different nights. As an example
group one meets on Monday. Group two meets on Tuesday etc. This
enables each APIP leader to work with as many as six individual prayer
groups throughout a city or region simultaneously. Those Christian
leaders, intercessors and believers who sense the Holy
Spirit challenging them to get involved should contact us directly for
more information.
