When Pastor Joe Wright was asked to open the new session of the Kansas Senate over fifteen years ago, everyone was expecting the usual politically correct generalities. But, what they heard instead was a stirring prayer, passionately calling our country to repentance and righteousness.
The response was immediate and a number of legislators walked out during the prayer. In six short weeks, the Central Christian Church (USA) had logged more than 5,000 phone calls, with only 47 of those calls responding negatively. Commentator Paul Harvey aired the prayer on the radio and received a large response.
Pastor Joe’s prayer is reprinted here as an encouragement and challenge for each of us to stand for the truth of the Gospel whenever the Lord gives us the opportunity because it is even more needed.
The Prayer:
“Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness and seek Your direction and guidance. We know your Word says, ‘Woe on those who call evil good,’ but that’s exactly what we have done. We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and inverted our values.
We confess that:
We ridiculed the absolute truth of your Word and called it pluralism.
We have worshipped other gods and called it multiculturalism.
We have endorsed perversion and called it an alternative lifestyle.
We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery.
We have neglected the needy and called it self-preservation.
We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare.
We have killed our unborn and called it choice.
We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable.
We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self-esteem.
We have abused power and called it political savvy.
We have coveted our neighbor’s possessions and called it ambition.
We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of expression.
We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.
Search us, O God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin and set us free. Guide and bless these men and women who have been sent here by the people of Kansas, and who have been ordained by you to govern this great state. Grant them the wisdom to rule, and may their decisions direct us to the center of your will. I ask it in the name of your Son, the Living Savior, Jesus Christ, Amen.” – Pastor Joe Wright

Authorities in places like New York, Washington, Chicago and Los Angeles took special precautions like increased K9 sweeps of subways and additional police patrols. This was especially true around airports, subway stops and train stations, with scenes like those in the U.S. capital — where police pulled out and checked travelers at random — not uncommon.
Of course, these are all measures being taken to thwart efforts that may already be in the works by terrorists that have been allowed to infiltrate, and this must be stopped. As Col. West wrote earlier [22 March 2016] this morning:
Folks we can no longer be enslaved to political correctness and enable this vile enemy to infiltrate and terrorize us. We are not guilty. We have allowed the Islamists to have safe zones within our nations.
Via Vocativ:
“With the permission of God, the lions came to take revenge for the killing of Muslims in Syria and Iraq,” one supporter of the terror group posted on Twitter.Another declared: “#Brussels, if you continue your war against the religion of Allah then this is our response.” Another shared a graphic image that allegedly showed a man who was wounded, and declared: “Allahu Akbar, #Belgium_is_on_fire_from_explosives.”
A prominent user on an ISIS forum called on Islamic State supporters to change their Twitter profile pictures to images showing feet stomping on the flag of Belgium. The user also called on ISIS loyalists to use a hashtag declaring Mosul’s revenge against Brussels, “the capital of infidels.”
ISIS members are bragging that they have hit the heart of the western world. Useful idiots like Hillary and Obama are quick to spout the PC ideological garbage. The PC line only encourages further and stronger attacks but those imbibing the PC Koolaid have no clue how they are endangering all of civilization.
They, militant Islamists, are already assuring us that they plan on stepping up the attacks, tweeting out “What will be coming is worse.”

In Matthew 10:40 [Jesus said:] He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.
As there is a way of partaking of other men’s sins, so there is a way of partaking in other men’s holy services.
We can be like Mohammad who, as the Koran and himself revealed, was a sinful man or we can be like Jesus whom even the Koran called the “Holy one of God.”
The old knight that clapped Luther on the back when he went to the Diet of Worms, and said to him “Well done, little Monk!” shared in Luther’s victory and in Luther’s crown.
“I am going down into the pit, you hold the ropes,” said Carey, the pioneer missionary. They that hold the ropes, and the daring miner that swings way down in the blackness, are one in the work, may be one in the motive, and, if they are, shall be one in the reward. So, brethren, though no coal of fire may be laid upon your lips, if you sympathize with the workers that are trying to serve God, and do what you can to help them, and identify yourself with them, and so hold the ropes, my text; will be true about you. “He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet; shall receive a prophet’s reward.” They who by reason of circumstances, by deficiency of power, or by the weight of other tasks and duties, can only give silent sympathy, and prayer, and help, are one with the men whom they help. – Dr. MacLaren
Choose you this day to follow the holy one of God for His reward is good, the sinful one’s reward is not good.
In other walks of life a person may attain high distinction without this condition. He may be a successful lawyer and, as many examples have routinely shown, obtain the chief prizes and positions of his profession without possessing much, if any, positive moral character.
A man may obtain fortune and fame as an artist or writer and be addicted to the lowest of pleasures.
A man may be quite successful at the stock market and have not one ounce of spiritual principle. All of that is possible but, no matter the age in which he lives or lived he cannot take the title and function of a prophet of God, be a pro claimer of His truth and His message, and at the same time not keep his steps in this life in line with the supreme morality of heaven’s highest law without being a self-confessed monstrosity fit only for the abode of the wicked.
Messiah Jesus is the holy one of God…listen to Him…obey Him.
Know Jesus, Know Heaven
No Jesus, No Heaven
