Please pray for our country,
and for Governor Rick Perry
The video links in this email take you to the full 12 minutes of remarks and prayer by Governor Perry at the opening of the 7 hour prayer gathering in Houston last Saturday. You will not find this reported in the newsmedia. 44,000 Christians attended and the focus of the entire meeting was repentance of our sins, and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
It is imperative that we do not cease to pray that the American people would return to their identity as a Christian people, and that the Lord might raise up openly Christian Senators, Congressmen, and Presidents. We have very few national statesmen who are unafraid to clearly identify themselves, and our nation with the Lord Jesus Christ.
As a representative of our brethren living behind "the gates of hell" in the Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, and Communist nations, I am acutely aware of the spiritual battle that is raging over the survival or destruction of America. The moral collapse of America and our complete denial of our Christian identity as a nation is not only destroying us politically and economically, but will also greatly impact our Christian brethren around the world. When we surrender our freedom, what little freedom our brethren now have will completely vanish.
If we are to pray "for kings and all those in authority" then we should surely give thanks for those who seek to rule according to God's word!
"When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; when the wicked rule, the people groan." Proverbs 29:2

Rick Perry, Texas governor, speaks at "The Response", August 6, 2011 |
All our persecuted Christian brethren living behind "the gates of hell" in the Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, and Communist nations, are praying for America to return to the Lord. May we never cease to join them in prayer for one another, and for our nations.
Pray for the Lord to raise up godly leadership for America. Men like the godly kings of Israel, David, Hezekiah and Josiah, who turned the hearts of their people toward the Lord. This is God's mark of true national leadership.
Gratefully your servant in Jesus Christ, Court Wood
