Help Us Reach Our Nation for Prayer



We want to openly share our needs and keep you informed about the status of this ministry. Since 2001, this ministry has been reaching millions of Americans with the help of God’s people, who have graciously underwritten the daily expenses of the prayer team. Every gift, no matter the size, is of great help. We invite you to prayerfully consider helping us meet our monthly budgeted need with a gift today.

Thank you for partnering with us in prayer.

Jim Bolthouse

President

  • Wednesday, June 10

    Today, USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins is testifying before the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry, chaired by Senator John Boozman of Arkansas.

    The Senate committee is in the process of reauthorizing the Farm Bill, which sets national agriculture, nutrition, conservation, and forestry policy for five to six years. The programs under the Farm Bill provide support for farmers to manage the risks of natural disasters, trade wars, and market downturns.

    The Congressional Baseball Game will be held this evening at the Washington Nationals ballpark. The Republican team has won the annual contest against the Democrats for the past five years. Funding from ticket sales for the event goes to Congressional Sports for Charity.

    As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…

    • For Secretary Rollins to provide the Senate committee with the relevant and accurate data and information they need to reauthorize the Farm Bill.
    • For President Trump and members of his Cabinet as they seek to support U.S. farmers and producers.
    • For discernment for senators and representatives as they craft legislation to fund federal programs.

     All things are possible for one who believes. – Mark 9:23


    The Blythe family writes music and lyrics and performs their songs as part of a family ministry. Brother and sister, Richard and Sandy Blythe, take the process of songwriting seriously, feeling that each song should be a “sermon with a melody.” One such song is titled “Jesus Walks the Troubled Waters.” The first stanza says, “When doubts and fears assail me, and on life’s sea I’m tossed, when storm clouds are gathering low, when it seems all hope is ended and all my courage lost, Jesus walks the troubled waters of my soul.”

    Peter, James, and John had spent time on a high mountain with Jesus when He was transfigured before them. They had a real mountaintop experience with the Lord! Shortly afterward, a man brought his son to Jesus for healing. The boy was mute and suffered seizures. The father said he had asked the disciples to cast out the evil spirit from the boy, but they were unable to do so. Jesus responded, “O faithless generation, how long am I to be with you? How long am I to bear with you?” He then said anything is possible for those who believe. After the boy’s father cried, “I believe; help my unbelief!” Jesus healed the boy.

    Mountaintop experiences are glorious. Reality sets in thereafter, and faith may falter. Jesus urges you to keep believing. Though your life circumstances ebb and flow, the Lord never changes. Let God’s truth and the presence of the Holy Spirit be your confidence to calm and replace fear and doubt. Pray for Christians in government to trust the Lord and keep strong faith in Him.

    Today’s Verse: Mark 9:23

    And Jesus said to him, “‘If you can’! All things are possible for one who believes.”

    14 And when they came to the disciples, they saw a great crowd around them, and scribes arguing with them. 15 And immediately all the crowd, when they saw him, were greatly amazed and ran up to him and greeted him. 16 And he asked them, “What are you arguing about with them?” 17 And someone from the crowd answered him, “Teacher, I brought my son to you, for he has a spirit that makes him mute. 18 And whenever it seizes him, it throws him down, and he foams and grinds his teeth and becomes rigid. So I asked your disciples to cast it out, and they were not able.” 19 And he answered them, “O faithless generation, how long am I to be with you? How long am I to bear with you? Bring him to me.” 20 And they brought the boy to him. And when the spirit saw him, immediately it convulsed the boy, and he fell on the ground and rolled about, foaming at the mouth. 21 And Jesus asked his father, “How long has this been happening to him?” And he said, “From childhood. 22 And it has often cast him into fire and into water, to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.” 23 And Jesus said to him, “‘If you can’! All things are possible for one who believes.” 24 Immediately the father of the child cried out and said, “I believe; help my unbelief!” 25 And when Jesus saw that a crowd came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, “You mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.” 26 And after crying out and convulsing him terribly, it came out, and the boy was like a corpse, so that most of them said, “He is dead.” 27 But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him up, and he arose.
