Memories From America's Founders For Independence Day

SJP Fasting Reminder Header

"I wish to keep on giving you messages, as it has never been in history, from the beginning of the world"                                                                                                  -  Medjugorje April 4, 1985

"The only attitude of the Christian toward the future is hope of salvation. Those who think only of wars, evils, punishment do not do well."                                             -  Medjugorje  1982

As we head into our Independence Day celebration, thank you to everyone who fasts with us each week as 1st century Christians wrote all believers are obligated to do each Wednesday and Friday.  Below please find a reminder that we sent out years ago and thought we are all well served to remember these incredible stories of our nation’s history. God bless and God bless America…

 

"I recommend to all persons whomsoever, to observe July 4th as a day of public thanksgiving and prayer: to render their sincere and hearty thanks to the great Ruler of Nations for the manifold mercies, which distinguish our lot as a nation." - President George Washington, 1795

 

Sisters and Brothers – As we approach the celebration of the birth of our Republic I wanted to remind you of President Washington’s directive as to how to celebrate the blessings of America so that we live by them as families.  I wanted to also share some amazing history that you may have forgotten and may wish to watch and discuss with your families friends and spread among believers.  First here are some data points passed on by David Barton:

 

While it may not surprise you that the 1st meeting of American leaders among the colonies began with a prayer – Beyond the customary one minute invocation, did you know our founders prayed for two hours to begin the talks of our nation’s formation? John Adams wrote to his wife Abigail and shared with her the exciting news that God showed them while praying in Psalm 35.

 

Our founders instituted a day of prayer … and fasting! Adams was so excited about what the Lord showed them he wrote Abigail that America would defeat the British and achieve our independence … a ridiculous notion that was utterly impossible by man’s standards.

 

1400 times by 1815 the government issued calls for America’s citizens and public officials to pray for America! 1400 times by 1815!

 

John Hancock told the state “Fast and pray that the kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ may be established in peace and righteousness among all the nations of the earth”.

 

Hancock added, “Pray and confess our sins before God and implore His forgiveness through the merits and mediations of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior”. Clearly our founders despised political correctness – as we should!

 

After our 1st day of prayer and fasting Adams wrote: We just captured a British fort. Had no military and we were fighting greatest military in the military in the world.

 

In 1778 George Washington wrote the following about those who would not acknowledge God’s hand in America.

 

“The hand of Providence has been so conspicuous in all this that he must be worse than an infidel that lacks faith, and more than wicked, that has not gratitude enough to acknowledge his obligations”

 

For an extraordinary talk from which those quotes are taken and that will peel back years of false learning that you will enjoy here is a link to David’s talk, Happy Birthday America!

 

Here is a link to his organization that you may wish to support that like our fasting honors America’s military:  https://wallbuilders.com/

 

Here again is a link to The Institute On The Constitution that we referenced recently following their founder’s extraordinary insight that virtually all of America’s governors have “un-governed” themselves by their violations against their citizens.  This should also give you great hope.

 

So thank so much for fasting with us tomorrow – Just as a small group of Americans fasting was an indispensable spark in igniting the impossible American Revolution that had statistically 0% chance of success – Your effort fasting is carving your name in the annals of American history that will be acknowledged in heaven … forever.  This weekend be salt, be light, be joyful – don’t worry about the winds and waters that rage around you. We’ve stepped out of the boat – focus on Jesus. And praise the Lord as our praise castrates evil.  Last night was such a beautiful night in Pennsylvania. There was a silent Symphony of the Fireflies in the moonlit sky with a cool breeze. How great is Our God – Like our Savior, savor quiet in nature and praise Him. It will refresh your soul, lift your spirits and color your weekend beautiful shades of red white and blue.  God bless, and God bless America!

Why We Fast – Our Core Fasting Intentions

1) We add the new fasting intention of taking back the church from evil. We submit the three-step process to achieve this victory is 1-Repent, 2-Prayer & Fasting and, 3-Imitate our Savior by throwing the evil leadership from the church. We will seek to emulate the Savior in our effort to End the USCCB, an organization that has been devastating to the church.  (“You shall know the spirit by the fruits” - Matt. 7:16)

2) For the Holy Spirit to reign down upon America, renewing our land as the Christian, capitalist meritocracy we were founded to be.

3) For the protection of our police, firefighters, military and their families from harm and that the Lord bless their courageous generosity on our behalf.

4) For the protection of the families who fast with us, and for God’s blessings of abundance upon them and that true to His word, we will be able to witness that He prospered us in famine.

Would you like to learn more about fasting?

We maintain a repository of ideas and information we have learned over the last decade while fasting weekly for America. From scientific studies on the benefits of fasting, to the differences between intermittent dieting vs intermittent fasting, to scriptural references regarding the power of fasting to the history of first century Christians who stated believers are obligated to fast weekly, we hope you will find numerous insights with our free resource located here.

Together let us also implore Heaven while fasting for intentions you have highlighted:

4) For all patriots who put themselves on the front lines in combatting evil and for all of the warriors who are stepping up around the nation to fight for the gospel – May The Father cover them in the blood of our savior,  protect them and their families from evil and bring victory to their endeavors.

5) For priests, ministers and all who aspire to lead others to the Lord, that the Holy Spirit will reign down upon them as at Pentecost filling them to overflowing. 

6) For the Americans jailed after January 6th who were admitted to the Capitol building by the police, and who were not found to have destroyed any property at the capitol yet who have been held captive ever since on our own soil - That God's Spirit will move quickly to bring justice back to this land and free them.
