ELECTION 2008 Day of fasting, prayer a prelude to Nov. 4 'We are about to set a course that will affect our country for generations' Posted: October 27, 2008 10:08 pm Eastern © 2009 WorldNetDaily
The foundation launched in honor of famed Christian speaker, broadcaster and leader D. James Kennedy, who founded the Coral Ridge Ministries, has announced a day of prayer for Nov. 3. "We are about to set a course that will affect our country for generations to come," said a statement from Jennifer Kennedy Cassidy of the D. James Kennedy Foundation. "For this reason we are calling on all Christian leaders and their congregations to join with us for a day of fasting and prayer the day before the election on Monday, November 3rd," she said. (Story continues below) "Please join with us as God instructed us in 2 Chronicles 7:14," she said, citing the Bible: If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. "We're less than a week until the most important election in our lifetime. Must is at stake that is vital to our nation," she said. Among the issues on which the 2008 presidential election is expected to have a major impact are life issues such as abortion, Christian liberty (including speech rights), the federal judiciary, taxes, government spending, foreign policy, national security, defense, energy and broadcasting, she said. James Dobson's Focus on the Family Action recently released a "Letter from 2012 in Obama’s America," which targets the many evangelical Christians seeking "change," particularly the young, who could tip the election in favor of the Illinois Democrat. At the end of the letter, the fictional Christian laments that these people "simply did not realize Obama's far-left agenda would take away many of our freedoms as a nation, perhaps permanently," pointing to a new, liberal-majority Supreme Court unlikely to change for 30 more years. "Many of our freedoms have been taken away by a liberal Supreme Court and a majority of Democrats in both the House and the Senate, and hardly any brave citizen dares to resist the new government policies any more," the letter writer says. The results the letter speculates may have happened by four years from now:
