Praying for the Next Conservative President:

I'd like to start a thread with prayer and discussion toward our next conservative President. I'm praying that God would use Newt Gingrich by raising him up to bring a mighty revival of conservatism to the United States. I believe he's a dynamic leader and policy maker. I'm praying and even speaking on the grass roots level about this.



Will you pray with me and support a possible Newt Gingrich run for President???

If not, who are you supporting and why? Please share and let's all pray for all these men and their families.

I pray every day for BHO....that he doesn't wreck the country anymore than he already has; that he's a one-termer; and that a conservative takes his place in 2012.

The point I was making was that you can't pray for Obama to do a good job. If you do and God answers that prayer then you won't get your conservative president.........

So all you pray for is that he screws up just enough so that he doesn't get reelected and that he doesn't screw up so badly that he destroys this country.

Actually, I DO pray for Obama to do a good job. Which in this case essentially means that he doesn't do any more damage to the country and doesn't get a second term, and that whoever replaces him does do a good job.

What BHO considers and "good job" and what is good for the country and most of us living in it aren't the same thing by all the evidence thus far.

Re: Praying for the Next Conservative President:

The Apostle Paul told us to pray for our leaders (1 Timothy 2:1-6) and to be obedient to the laws of our land (Romans 13:1-7 and Titus 3:1-2). The Apostle Peter urged obedience to civil rulers (1 Peter 2:13-17). Jesus told us to render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's... (Matthew 22:21).

Even with our government's descent into Socialism we have it better than those folks back there to whom those things were spoken. And, we can work to change our government while those folks back there were pretty much powerless to do so.

They should have put Ken Blackwell in that position in the first place.
