[/align][/align]Itseems prayer still upsets some people. Please read....
When Minister Joe Wright was asked to open the new session of the Kansas Senate, everyone was expecting the usual generalities, but this is what they heard;
'Heavenly Father,
We come before you today
To ask yourforgiveness and
To seek your direction and guidance.
We know Your Word says,
'Woe to those who call evil good'
But that is exactly what we have done.
We have lost our spiritual equilibrium
And reversed our values.
We have exploited the poor and
called it the lottery.
We have rewarded laziness
and called it welfare.
We have killed our unborn
and called it choice.
We have shot abortionists
andcalled it justifiable.
We have neglected to discipline
our children and called it
building self-esteem.
We have abused power
And called it politics.
We have coveted our neighbour's
Possessions and called it ambition.
We have polluted the air
With profanity and
Pornography and called it
Freedom of speech and expression.
We have ridiculed the time
Honoured values of our
Forefathers and called it enlightenment.
Search us, Oh, God,
And know our hearts today;
Cleanse us from every sin
And set usfree.
Amen!'
The response was immediate. A number of legislators walked out
during the prayer in protest.
In 6 short weeks, Central Christian Church, where Rev. Wright is
pastor, logged more than 5,000 phone calls with only 47 of those
calls responding negatively. The church is now receiving
international
requests for copies of this prayer fromIndia, Africa andKorea.
Commentator Paul Harvey aired this prayer on his radio Program, 'The
Rest of the Story,' and received a larger response to this program than any
[/align]other he hasever aired.
With the Lord's help, may this prayer sweep over our Nation and
wholeheartedly become our desire so that we again can be called
The Prayer might have stepped on Toe's where he said it, but God didn't even hear it.
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the Truth, and the life; No MAN cometh unto the Father, but by Me. John 14:6
Is this Vs a lie? Do we need to spin it so it says something else? Do you believe it?
Why didn't he say? It's in Jesus Name we Pray.

Rev 1:7-8
[7] Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
[8] I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
Father + Son =1

His kingdom has come and Christ has all Athourity. I am sorry but if you want to talk to God, it must be Thru Jesus. Not my Rules his John 14: 6! Does it mean what it says?
