National Day of Prayer For Our Country and Our Media

   NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER FOR OUR COUNTRY AND OUR MEDIA

IN PURSUIT OF THE TRUTH - HTTP://WWW.CINOPSBEGONEBLOGSPOT.COM  - THURSDAY, MAY 5, 2016

 

Preface:  The following is dedicated to Bishop Fulton Sheen. He would have involved the American Catholic Church in President Reagan's exhortation in 1988: "The President shall issue each year a proclamation designating the first Thursday in May as a National Day of Prayer on which the people of the United States may turn to God in prayer and meditation at churches, in groups and as individuals." Do you remember when we prayed for the conversion of Russia? Both America and Russia need it badly today. Did you notice that the culture of death news media reported nothing on the National Day of Prayer?

 

Here is a presentation given at an indoor prayer event:

 

    The Christian calendar for the month of May changes every year. Is it by chance or Providence that today we celebrate the Ascension of our Lord Jesus Christ to His Father in heaven? Praise be our Lord Jesus!

 

LIKEWISE, ON THIS DAY OF PRAYER FOR OUR COUNTRY AND THE MEDIA, LET US BEGIN BY GIVING GLORY TO THE FATHER, AND TO THE SON AND TO THE  HOLY SPIRIT. OUR BELOVED FOUNDING FATHERS HAD A PARTICULAR CONCERN FOR THE FREEDOM OF THE PRESS AND RELIGIOUS FREEDOM AS WRITTEN IN THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO OUR CONSTITUTION:

 

"CONGRESS SHALL MAKE NO LAW RESPECTING AN ESTABLISHMENT OF RELIGION, OR PROHIBITING THE FREE EXCERCISE THEREOF; OR ABRIDGING THE FREEDOM OF SPEECH, OR OF THE PRESS, OR THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE PEACEABLY TO ASSEMBLE, AND TO PETITION THE GOVERNMENT FOR A REDRESS OF GRIEVANCES."

 

 SADLY, TODAY LESS THAN TEN PERCENT OF OUR NATION TRUSTS THE MEDIA IN REPORTING THE NEWS FAIRLY AND HONESTLY. THAT MEANS ONLY ONE OUT OF TEN PERSONS. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS MATTER!  LACK OF KNOWLEDGE CAN DESTROY ANY COUNTRY. TODAY,  THE TRUTH AND COMMON SENSE ARE NOT POPULAR. THERE IS AN AGENDA OF THE RIGHT AND IN PARTICULAR OF THE LEFT TO REMAKE AMERICA.

 

IN ABOUT TEN DAYS,  WE WILL BE CELEBRATING PENTECOST SUNDAY ON MAY 15. WE PRAY TO THE HOLY SPIRIT TO ENTER THE MINDS AND HEARTS OF JOURNALISTS, NEWS REPORTERS, ACADEMIA AND THE HOLLYWOOD ELITE AND INSPIRE THEM TO THE HIGHEST STANDARDS OF INTEGRITY AND FAIRNESS.

 

   WITH THE INSPIRATION FROM THE GOSPEL, PRAY THAT THE TRUTH BE THE ESTABLISHED STANDARD IN OUR NEWS MEDIA: THAT THE MEDIA BIAS WILL BE REPLACED BY FAIRNESS: AND THAT CHRISTIANITY WILL RECEIVE FAIR COVERAGE IN ALL REPORTS. JUST GIVE US THE FACTS AND WE,  THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WILL DECIDE.  WE WANT THE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH, FAIRNESS, AND COMMON SENSE.

 

A GREAT LEADER BEN CARSON WARNED US A FEW YEARS AGO AT A PRESIDENTIAL PRAYER GATHERING IN WASHINGTON, D.C. THAT POLITICAL CORRECTNESS IS WRONG AND EVIL. POLITICAL CORRECTNESS IS NOT INTERESTED IN THE TRUTH. POLITICAL CORRECTNESS IS USED BY LEFTIST POLITICIANS TO PROMOTE A NATIONAL NON-RELIGIOUS ANTI-CHRISTIAN SECULAR SOCIETY. THIS NATIONAL RELIGION IS CONTRARY TO THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION.

 

IN CLOSING LET US REMEMBER THAT THE FOUNDATIONS OF OUR NATION ARE CHRISTIAN AND WHILE TODAY'S CULTURE IS ANTI-CHRISTIAN. WE CAN CHANGE THAT WITH PRAYER AND THE ACTION OF VOTING AS CHRISTIANS AS PROCLAIMED BY EVANGELIST FRANKLIN GRAHAM TENTATIVELY IN EVERY STATE CAPITAL OF THE UNION. THE BOTTOM LINE IS CHRISTIAN TYPE INFLUENCED  LEADERSHIP THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY   AS SPOKEN BY ALMOST ALL OF OUR  18 TH   PAST PRESIDENTS OF THE U.S.A. HERE ARE THE WORDS OF  OUR PRESIDENT  ULYSSES GRANT:

 

 "HOLD FAST TO THE BIBLE AS THE SHEET ANCHOR OF YOUR LIBERTIES; WRITE ITS PRECEPTS IN YOUR HEARTS, AND PRACTICE THEM IN YOUR LIVES. TO THE INFLUENCE OF THIS BOOK ARE WE INDEBTEDFOR ALL THE PROGRESS MADE IN TRUE CIVILIZATION, AND TO THIS MUST WE LOOK AS OUR GUIDE IN THE FUTURE. "RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTETH A NATION; BUT SIN IS A REPROACH TO ANY PEOPLE."

 

SO BE IT:  AS WE PRAY ON THIS NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER FOR OUR COUNTRY.
