What is the National Day of Prayer?

Answer


The National Day of Prayer is a day of religious observance in the United States of America in which people are called upon to pray for their country. The first official day of prayer in the U.S. was in 1775, when the Continental Congress called for the public to fast and pray for the leadership of the Colonies. After that time, Presidents periodically called the nation to pray during times of war or other hardships. In 1952, Conrad Hilton (founder of Hilton Hotels) and Senator Frank Carlson of Kansas, encouraged by Billy Graham, initiated a bill calling for the President to designate one day a year as a National Day of Prayer. In 1952, President Harry Truman signed a joint resolution into law; the original wording reads as follows:

Public Law 82-324: Joint Resolution; National Day of Prayer

To provide for setting aside an appropriate day as a National Day of Prayer

Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the President shall set aside and proclaim a suitable day each year, other than a Sunday, as a National Day of Prayer, on which the people of the United States may turn to God in prayer and meditation at churches, in groups, and as individuals.
Approved April 17, 1952.

A group of evangelical Christians formed the National Prayer Committee, which later formed the National Day of Prayer Task Force, in 1979. One of their purposes was to encourage Congress to set a specific date for the event. In 1988, Congress chose the first Thursday of each May as the National Day of Prayer, and the bill was signed into law by President Ronald Reagan.

The law states that the President must issue a proclamation calling all people to pray, but it does not stipulate the President’s involvement beyond that. Some Presidents host prayer events at the White House while others do not. The proclamations vary from President George H. W. Bush’s direct appeal to the Bible and the God of the Bible to President Barack Obama’s vague acknowledgements of the inspiring role prayer takes in the various faiths practiced in the U.S.

The National Day of Prayer is controversial, to some people. In 2008, the Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF) sued the President, his press secretary, the chair of the National Day of Prayer Task Force, and the governor of Wisconsin. The FFRF claimed that the phrasing “turn to God in prayer, at churches” in the 1952 law violated the First Amendment. Although the FFRF dropped the governor and the task force from the suit, a U.S. district judge found the law unconstitutional and urged President Obama to forgo the annual mandate. The 7th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals threw out the suit, ruling that no one suffered any injury merely because the federal government set aside a day for people to pray if they wanted to.

As early as 2003, the American Humanist Association has called for a “National Day of Reason.” They also believe the National Day of Prayer violates the First Amendment. Although local and state governments have observed the National Day of Reason, a resolution in the U.S. House of Representatives in 2015 apparently failed. A second resolution was filed in 2017. The reasons given for a National Day of Reason have mostly to do with limiting the influence of conservative Christian views on government policy, school curriculum, scientific research, and pro-life efforts.

Is the National Day of Prayer biblical? Absolutely. It is biblical for Christians to gather to pray for the wisdom, safety, and guidance of our leaders; to offer thanksgiving for our national blessings; and to seek forgiveness for our national sins. The ecumenical nature of the National Day of Prayer is essential in a republic that values freedom of religion. No one should be coerced to pray in a way that is at odds with his or her faith. The National Day of Prayer Task Force should be free to coordinate events for Christians who wish to participate.

Should a Christian attend a National Day of Prayer event? Personal discretion and a case-by-case evaluation are necessary, especially if the event is ecumenical. If Christian, Muslim, Jewish, and Hindu prayers are offered side by side, then Christians should consider whether their attendance will give countenance to the belief that all religions are equal. Christians must weigh their support of the community against the impact ecumenism will have on their testimony of faith in Christ alone.

We should be thankful that the United States has a National Day of Prayer and that the God of the Bible is so strongly represented. There will likely come a time when this will not be the case. Until then, we should feel free to publicly pray for healing, forgiveness, and guidance for our nation and its leaders. Our influence as Christians in the public sphere is quickly waning, and we should take advantage while we can.

The Ancient Mystery Behind The Trump Assassination Attempt? by Jonathan Cahn



What was the significance of the anointed priest?

translateanointed priestaudioAnsw
Exodus 29 describes the commands for consecrating the first anointed priests of Israel. Verse 7 says, “Take the anointing oil and anoint him by pouring it on his head.” The pouring of oil on the priest’s head was full of significance.

Anointing shows that the priest was set apart for holy service to God. The consecration of Aaron and his sons actually took place later, in Leviticus 8: “Then Moses took the anointing oil and anointed the tabernacle and everything in it, and so consecrated them. He sprinkled some of the oil on the altar seven times, anointing the altar and all its utensils and the basin with its stand, to consecrate them. He poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron’s head and anointed him to consecrate him” (verses 10–12).

The purpose of the anointing—consecration—is mentioned three times in this passage. To consecrate is to set apart or to make holy. After their anointing, the priests were considered holy unto God; they were sanctified, rather than common.

Following this anointing, offerings were made and instructions were given before Aaron and his sons began their work as priests in the tabernacle. The Lord would later dramatically confirm the anointing of Aaron at the time of his first offering. Leviticus 9:22–24 says, “Then Aaron lifted his hands toward the people and blessed them. And having sacrificed the sin offering, the burnt offering and the fellowship offering, he stepped down. Moses and Aaron then went into the tent of meeting. When they came out, they blessed the people; and the glory of the Lord appeared to all the people. Fire came out from the presence of the Lord and consumed the burnt offering and the fat portions on the altar. And when all the people saw it, they shouted for joy and fell facedown.”

God had set Aaron and his sons apart, anointing them for service. He then confirmed that setting apart through supernatural events: God Himself set fire to the offering, and His glory appeared before the people. The response was one of joy, reverence, and worship.

Anointing is used elsewhere in the Bible to set people apart for service. Samuel anointed Saul and later David as kings of Israel. In Mark 14:8, Jesus defended a woman who had poured oil on Him, saying, “She has come beforehand to anoint My body for burial” (NKJV). The very meaning of the word Christ is “Anointed One.” Jesus was “set apart” as God’s Servant (see Isaiah 42:1).

In the New Testament, anointing a person is also associated with prayers for healing. James 5:14–15 teaches, “Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven.”

In summary, an anointed priest was one set apart for service to God. The anointing was part of a public ceremony designed to impress upon everyone the fact that God had chosen this person for a special task. The idea of anointing to set someone apart was also associated with kings and in reference to Jesus. In the church, anointing is associated with prayers of healing for the sick. Anointing connotes the ideas of holiness and cleansing, key concepts for Jewish priests and important traits for believers in Christ today.


The Levitical priesthood was never intended to be permanent (Hebrews 7:11). The death of Christ put an end to the Old Covenant and the Levitical priesthood, as evidenced by the rending of the temple veil (Matthew 27:51). Now Jesus Himself serves as the believer’s Great High Priest (Hebrews 4:14), called according to the order of Melchizedek, not of Levi (Hebrews 7:11–17). Through His death and resurrection, we have access to God’s presence, where we can freely enjoy Him forever (Hebrews 6:19–20).

The claims that Jonathan Cahn made in the video above, about an ANCIENT MYSTERY concerning the attempted assassination of Donald Trump and comparing him to the Aaronic priest hood is ludicrous. CAHN JUST MADE THAT ALL UP!  To me it sounds more like a BIBLICAL CONSPIRACY THEORY. And I wouldn't be surprised if he writes a book about it to be released in Sept 2025.

  Everything about the Levitical Priest hood ended at Calvary as follows:
1) The Mosaic Covenant 2) It's Priestly system 3) It's Temple & 4) It's sacrificial system. 

God has a purpose for humanity, a purpose for current events, and He will accomplish that purpose through the leadership that He either puts in place or allows.

God today is not anointing/appointing any one to hold  political office after the order/pattern of the Aaronic priest hood. ESPECIALLY AMONG THE GENTILE NATIONS. You never read anything like that happening in the Bible from the O.T. to the N.T. As the evidence presented  above proves the Aaronic priest hood was abolished 2000 years ago by the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ circa A.D. 32!

SOME FINAL WORDS

To further provide more proof that Jonathan Cahn fabricated this so called ancient mystery, see video below that was produced by John Henry Weston on his You Tube channel LSNTV approximately 2 weeks before Cahn came out with his own video as posted above. If you pay careful attention at time frames 1minute & 33 seconds, you will notice where Cahn got his ideas from Mr. Weston's video approximately 2 weeks after Mr. Weston released his video.

DONALD TRUMPS VOWS TO FIGHT PERSECUTION AGAINST CHRISTIANS IN AMERICA





New statistics on growing persecution against Christians

436 acts of hostility against US churches documented in 2023 

 

For thousands of years, Christians have been persecuted for their faith. With the growth of secularism, Christians face the same form of persecution through a differing worldview. This trend, shown in a poll performed by Pew Research Center, presents itself in the U.S. Secularism also makes a noticeable difference in Europe. 

A recent report by the Observatory on Intolerance and Discrimination against Christians shows that Christians in secular environments are facing more intolerance and discrimination than any other religion worldwide. Practicing Christians, unlike cultural Christians, hold an unknown minority within Europe. 

In 2021, OIDAC reported over 500 anti-Christian hate crimes in the region. These numbers present a decrease from the 2020 report, which shows about 1,000 anti-Christian attacks. 

However, in both reports, OIDAC understands that “due to finite resources and the general underreporting of hate crimes, we can reasonably maintain that the actual number of cases is much higher.”

The anti-Christian hate crimes in 2021 were directed at practicing believers. In the same year, Christian communities experienced 14 physical assaults and four murders. Less serious crimes range anywhere from stolen property to beatings with a baseball bat. 

While 2020 proved an increase of hate crimes from many years prior, 2021 showed that there has either been a major decrease in anti-Christian hate crimes, or these crimes are going unreported at a larger rate than usual.

In a recent study conducted by the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights, results showed that only a 10th of hate crimes are reported in Europe. OIDAC has every right to believe the numbers for reported anti-Christian hate crimes are fewer than reality. 

An interesting proponent of anti-Christian thinking will always be the increase of secularism. Commonly found in OIDAC’s report, governments and major corporations often shut down the speech of Christians in support of secularization along with upholding the views of the LGBTQ+ community and other minorities that disagree with the Christian worldview.

Leading away from statistics, Christians around the world will continue to face persecution. Jesus guarantees the increased trend of sin. He tells Christians this world will be worse than the days of Noah by the time he returns and receives his kingdom. 

Believers who are actively facing hatred and prejudice can rely on the Word, knowing that continued struggle will be rewarded when Christ returns in glory. More than this, brothers and sisters in Christ can look to the Scriptures for how they will endure suffering on Christ’s behalf. 

I specifically think of Paul and his sufferings that he lists in 2 Corinthians 11-12. Boasting of his weaknesses, Paul recognizes how God’s grace is made perfect in weakness. Paul joyfully suffers at the hands of those who deny Christ because he knows he’s doing something right by glorifying God and fulfilling his mission. He was stoned, slashed, whipped and beaten almost to death. He was denied by his own people, encountered danger from those he spoke to and faced the psychological pressure of his anxiety for all the churches’ spiritual welfare. Even so, Paul continued to rejoice in the saving knowledge of his Lord.

Statistics on reported crimes may waver throughout the rest of the speck of eternity this world has, but Christ remains faithful and his Father’s grace sufficiently prevails.
