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

    The U.S. Postal Service is expected to formally publish a rule today, aligning with President Trump’s March 31 executive order, to create data reporting standards that “can provide information regarding the sending of ballots through the mails that would be available for use by law enforcement.”

    A federal judge in Massachusetts is hearing a legal challenge to the president’s order regarding mail-in ballots today.

Vantage Point Devotional
  • His Desire to Restore

    Will you not revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you? – Psalm 85:6


    The nation whose people submit to God will be blessed. The favor, forgiveness, and salvation the psalmist writes about in today’s passage are found in the Lord Jesus. Each individual who receives Christ as their Savior and Lord receives all three. Some are concerned that political division, the normalization of immorality, and the antagonism toward believers will bring a reckoning to the United States.

    The Lord longs for relationship and continually reaches out to humanity to restore it. Though this country appears to have increasingly drifted away from the Lord, He promises to always be with those who believe in Him. His name is Immanuel, which means “God with us.” His mercy is new every morning (Lamentations 3:23), and He is a refuge for all who seek Him. Praise God for His grace through Jesus Christ. Whatever the circumstances are here on Earth, the Heavenly Father is able to take care of His children.

    Your responsibility is to continue to pray for the nation’s repentance and restoration. “And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will He hears us” (1 John 5:14). God desires nations to yield to Him. But salvation comes first to the individual. Do your part in standing for what is right in the United States. Continue to pray that the Lord will open the eyes of the governing officials and citizens of the nation to His love, forgiveness, and grace in the Lord Jesus.

    Today’s Verse: Psalm 85:6

    Will you not revive us again,
        that your people may rejoice in you?

    For this reason, because I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love toward all the saints, 16 I do not cease to give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers, 17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, 18 having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of his great might 20 that he worked in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come. 22 And he put all things under his feet and gave him as head over all things to the church, 23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.
