This Morning’s Prayer

post 059

Dear Almighty God of our founding fathers,
The source of all goodness and blessing in this once great land we call America,

The battle lines for the life and values of this nation have been clearly drawn, and those who choose to do nothing choose to side with the enemy, that evil destroyer you call Satan.
You have watched as we grow apathetic and lazy, and you have quietly observed us wander away from your protective covering, not from your lack of care, but because we have told you to stay behind.
We have elected the godless to lead us as our own hearts grow colder to you through our pleasures and lusts. We have allowed those godless leaders to actually make laws against honoring you. And now the man we call our President has publicly declared; “We are no longer a Christian nation.”

Yet in your mighty love and concern you have sent to us, not a leader, but a councilor.
One of us risen up, not through his own design, but willing to go where “circumstances” have dictated. You have overcome the powerful restraints of the corrupt and godless media to send us a man willing to show us from where we have fallen, and the path we need to take in order to find national repentance and restoration.

I pray to you, the maker and breaker of nations, that you send your angels of protection to perpetually encompass Glenn Beck, his family, and the staff that work his show, so that the minions of the Dark One cannot remove him from the place you have given him.

If America is to fall, may it be at our own willful choice, and not because the Devil has removed your voice of guidance from us.

But I ask yet even more,
That you would move in our hearts to believe in your forgiveness and your longsuffering, that we would catch the hope and clear understanding that you can and will yet forgive us, and restore this nation to its greatness, if we would but turn from our familiar sins, and selfish slothfulness, to claim for ourselves the right to shamelessly lead this nation in righteousness.

For this I earnestly pray with expectation,
Your servant,
Kyle Ponsford

  1. Having read all your previous posts it is evident that this earnest prayer encompasses more than it literally says. Coming from the sincerity of the heart the sensation of deep grief and anguish for the country is very prominent. It feels as if you’ve settled with the fact that things are to get much worse before they start getting better which isn’t going to happen any time soon? I hope I’m wrong about the last part.
