For American textbooks to honor and reflect our godly heritage, No. 2

***That American textbooks would honor and reflect this godly heritage of our country.
Proverbs 22:28
Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set.
Please pray with me:

Heavenly Father,
Help Lord! The United States is under attack. Social agendas prevail. We have slept while the enemy has advanced and now our children are required to be indoctrinated by the sexual agendas.

The enemy is organized and fierce. The agenda permeates the textbook and teachings of children of every age. Everywhere they turn they are taught and coached on the social and sexual agendas that defy the safeguards and definitions that You have created.

Our stand is weak. We slept while these agendas were given life. We did not take a stand when prayer was eliminated in our schools. We did not voice our desire for Your definition of appropriate sexual conduct or the definition of marriage. As the enemy organized and engaged the legal communities, we have cowered in fear.

Truly we are now at the place where our nation calls right wrong and wrong right.
Isaiah 5:20
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Forgive us. Raise us up. This is not a battle of flesh and blood but a spiritual war for the very minds of our children. Raise up the prayer warriors. Call us to pray diligently. Pour out prayers for the safety of our children, and for Truth to predominate. Father, bring us before Your throne of grace with hearts of repentance. Give us words of confession, hearts of repentance, and voices that cry out day and night on behalf of our children.
Proverbs 22:6
Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
Father, it is now against the law to adhere to this verse, because "the way he should go" has been redefined. We need wisdom. We need talented orators, persuasive writers to rise up. Father, I do not believe that You have left us defenseless. I pray for these writers to rise up. I ask for educators, who are steeped in Your Word, to present Truth from Your Word.

The textbooks promote the agenda of the enemy to capture the minds of our children. Raise up new voices, new writers. Give them unyielding courage and words that capture the hearts and minds of those who willingly go along with those who hate You. Enable these writers to cause both children and adults to desire Your foundation and to write effectively.

As this nation evaluates and negotiates the "Common Core," I ask that You raise up an army of voices that will speak with wisdom and capture hearts and votes to return to our heritage. Pour out your Spirit on those who would rise up in educational agendas, stand up in the meetings and voting rooms and give them convincing words so that, one school district, one State at a time, this nation can return to our heritage—the one given us by You.

Father, there are so many, who are comatose and silent on these matters. In Your mercy, give us the situation that would cause them to awaken. Invigorate them to stand up, to stand strong, to support those who risk their careers and livelihoods because they speak out. Help us care enough to turn this around.

It seems we are cowering in fear and there is reason to do so. The enemy has become so organized that they ave been able to destroy the lives of those who take a stand for the principles that You have set forth. Yet You have not given us a spirit of fear.
2 Timothy 1:7
For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
May we awake to Your truth. May we embrace the sound mind that You provide.

Father, there s a process that pushes these agendas. The "educational agenda" is surely near the top of the list in the enemy's war room. Educating our children is a topmost priority. You are stronger than the enemy. Give us insights into this process and place spirit-filled soldiers at every point to deter the agenda to take over our textbooks.

Shield our children that they not give way to what is fundamentally adverse to Your Word.

I pray wer are not too late. I ask that Your Spirit awake us to the dire situation. Invigorate us to pray, act, and live with courage. Strengthen our trust in Your care and love for us. May we recognize that we have turned from You, that we have slept, and we must confess and repent. Help us to embrace You, knowing that You will help us in this grave time of need, if we turn to You.

Help Lord. You are the One True and Living God. Your Word will stand. You are our only hope. Only in You is life. Show us the path. Raise us up and may we be a nation of stalwart soldiers once again.

In Jesus’ Name.
