BIRMINGHAM, Nov. 18 /Christian Newswire/ -- Although people are murdered in this country every day and we hear about it with constant news coverage, the travesty that occurred at Fort Hood is especially heinous because it was perpetrated by a Muslim terrorist. Sadly, we know that this type of terrorism going to occur again and again. It is not going to stop. It may come in different forms or locations, but it will come again.
Right now, within our own country, there are cell groups of Al-Qaeda, planning and preparing what will take place next. They are tucked in amongst our teachers, doctors, auto mechanics, grocery clerks...they are people we would never suspect. The example at Fort Hood is prime, showing us that regardless of title, or birthplace, or beliefs, evil is living among us. And because of the administration leading this country, and their soft stand on terrorism, the opportunities for more people to lose their lives as the result of another terrorist attack on American soil is not an "if" questions but a "when" question.
There are differing opinions regarding whether or not all Muslims are terrorists. No one has that answer. But what we can agree on is that we need to pray for evil to be removed from this country. We can agree that righteousness is what exalts a nation. We can agree that we desperately need an infusion of God's Spirit like never before. We can agree that we must stand up against evil, no matter what it looks like. Jesus said clearly and emphatically, "He who is not for me, is against me!" And even if we do not know who is evil and who isn't, or what's evil and what isn't, God our Father knows because He doesn't look at the outward appearance, but rather He looks on the heart.
We must take America back. The only way for that to happen is to come together as one voice from wherever we are throughout this land and varied parts of the world, once more bombarding the heavens, all at the same exact time. To that end, Yes I Will Pray, an international prayer initiative founded by Alan and Sharalee Sherman, will lead The Urgent National Call to Prayer on December 1, 2009 at 12:00 p.m. EST. The Yes I Will Pray Corporate Prayer will be available to download for participants to have at their disposal. Yes I Will Pray urges every Christian to raise their heart and voice and heed the Urgent National Call to Prayer and encourage others to join with them and Yes I Will Pray to pray the Prayer Against Evil in our country.
