Rev. Joe Wright's Prayer


Posted: Jun 24, 2014

THIS MAN SURE HAS A GOOD VIEW OF WHAT'S HAPPENING TO OUR COUNTRY! 'Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness 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 and called 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 neighbor's possessions and called it ambition. We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of expression. We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment. Search us, Oh God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from sin and set us free. Amen!' With the Lord's help, may this prayer sweep over our nation and wholeheartedly become our desire so that we once again can be called 'One nation under God!' Think about this: If you forward this prayer to everyone on your e-mail list, in less than 30 days it would be heard by the world. (It's worth a try!) 'One Nation Under God!';

It was actually written - by the Rev Joe Wright of Kansas

I should have checked it out before I posted it.

No worries! It is a great prayer - I just thought it should be

attributed to the correct person. I was living in KS at the time and remember when he gave the prayer and what an uproar there was about it.

The 'values of our forefathers' did NOT make us a nation under god. nm - friendly atheist

So technically, ridiculing the values of our forefathers would be instilling Christianity into government, which is the polar opposite of "enlightenment."

Wondering why you changed the original text... - and advocate chain-mailing...

[ In Reply To ..]
That is not the original text. The original is a remarkable display of intolerance.

You can see the original at snopes.com.

Isn't misrepresenting what someone said lying? there a commandment that says "Thou shall not lie?" Or, does your version have a caveat that says it's ok if you are lying for Jesus?

Chain-mailing is rude and wasteful. It can be a theft of others' time and resources. Isn't there a commandment that says "Thou shall not steal?" Or, does your version have a caveat that says it's ok if you are stealing for Jesus?

As for intolerance, isn't that prohibited by the commandment "Thou shall not kill?"

Just something to think about ...

Have worked at this local company for the past 7 years - I have put in long hours and for the last 5 was hired exclusively to be the only transcriptionist for this busy PT/OT/ST rehab clinic.  I had 4-5 therapists I typed for and only one of those ever got their dictation to me daily.  The others would "dump" on me a week or more of work and expect me to have it done in a timely fashion.  There was no one to cover for me when I took a day off, so for the last 5-6 years I have not ...

I have tried counseling and naturopathic remedies, exercise, etc. I still struggle with sleep and it is difficult to lead a normal life because I am so exhausted all of the time. I have anxiety also so I am sure these are related. Anyway, I know there are worse ...

Good morning, I really need prayer.  I've been an MT for about 20 years.  Most of it was spent transcribing in-house, with a fair amount of experience with ESL dictators. My speciality was always operative notes, and I miss them!  I went on to work for Spheris for one year and MedQuist for three before we lost our home. I've been working for a private psych hospital for nearly 5 years.  It's been a good job, except for feeling like I'm on a different plan ...

I would like for people on this board to pray with me concerning my job. I am a "Nana" to 6 grandchildren who have no support from their fathers, so I really have a high budget. However, my job is to say in the least horrible. It is straight typing and in my 14 years of experience as a transcriptionist I have never had trouble making my line counts except with this company. It seems there are 10,000 different dictators. I am not making enough to even meet my budget and need a job so bad. ...
