Amen. What awesome insight! With the Lord's help, may this prayer sweep our nation and wholeheartedly become our desire so that we again can be called a Christian nation that fears the Lord! Please send this prayer to as many of your Christian friends as you, can. Let us all help to get the Lord back into our lives and most importantly into the lives of our children. Amen.
