Call to Prayer and God's Abundant Power

The Word says in Psalms 88 and 2, Let my prayer come before thee. Incline thine ear unto my cry. Welcome to Focus Prayer with G. Craig Lewis. Let's go ahead and prepare our hearts and prepare our get in your prayer stance position. However, and we're going to pray tonight that God just increases us in certain areas. just for some increase to make it through these last and evil days that we are in. So we're going to pray that God increases us.

for that just just in preparation for it and trusting and believing in him uh for it amen father god in jesus name god we recognize your power and we Father God, we recognize that you are God of all. We recognize that you are God of everything. We recognize that you are all powerful. God, just as I was saying, we have a book. to prove who you are and we have a book to show what you have done and in every uh historical um category and every in every instance

Father God, you brought your people through and it is evident. And all of the facts can be backed up by history and historians and theologians. And Father God, it's all true. The Bible is all true and whether man wants to accept it or not, we believe it. We believe that it is true. So we recognize that that same book tells us of your greatness, how you walked out of nothing and created something.

And how you were there when there was nothing. Because you are eternal. And God we know and recognize that power tonight. So we thank you, Lord, for your power. We thank you for being a God above everything. We thank you for being even above the little things that are concerning us here in the earth.

To you, they're not little things if they're concerning us because you are concerned about us. So we thank you, Lord, that no matter how great you are, you're still concerned about us, your beloved creation. And God, we just thank you for that. Ephesians 3 and 20 tells us now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think according to the power that worketh in us. So God.

You're able to do exceeding abundant above all we ask or think. So even the things we think of tonight or ask for tonight, God, you're able to do far above that. Because we're praying for you to increase us in areas, God, increase us in those areas that we're not even able to think of. Those areas that we're not even able to ask for.

Giving Thanks and Seeking Forgiveness

you know the future so you know what we need so we thank you lord for just being that powerful and that mighty to us and father god we we come before you with thanksgiving just be just giving you thanks for who you are and being thankful for what we have. As this season of Thanksgiving approaches for our nation, that we celebrate a certain day of Thanksgiving, God, we want to give you Thanksgiving always.

We want to always come before you with thanksgiving, Father God, and we want to be thankful. We don't want to complain and we don't want to wish and want. We want to be thankful for what you've done for us. God, you've done so much for us, Lord. We are so far from where we once were. And even those prayers that we once had, God, you've increased us since then. And we just thank you, Lord, for just giving us what we need.

All the things, Father God, just taking care of us as a good father would and bringing us to this place, Father God. We thank you. We thank you. We give you thanks, Lord. We just thank you, God, for your presence always being here and just God always being there for us. If no one else understands, you always understand. So we just give you thanks.

Because you deserve it. And if you hadn't done anything for us, you would deserve our thanksgiving for just giving us life, for giving us breath, for just allowing us to even be here. Psalms 104 says, enter into his gates with thanksgiving. So we enter into your gates, Father God, with thanksgiving, with a thankful heart, a thankful.

uh uh spirit father god just thankful lord there are so many that couldn't be here there's so many that can't be here there are so many that can't even say that they're thankful but we are thankful so we enter into your gates with thanksgiving and your word says to enter into his courts with praise be thankful unto him

And bless his name. So we bless your name right now with thanksgiving from our hearts. Right now. And Father God, we ask for forgiveness for all of our sins. Everything that we've done against you. everything that we've done against your word, in every way that we've missed the mark, every way that we've just shown our humanness and Father God and let you down. Father, we ask for forgiveness right now, even the sins that we're not.

Just things we may have said or done, things we didn't do, should have done, should have said. Father God, we ask for forgiveness right now, God, because we know without your forgiveness, Father God, we won't make it in and we won't be able to please you. So we ask for forgiveness of our sins, everything that we've done against you, Lord. We don't practice sin and we don't make a practice of living in sin, Father God, but we know that we all fall or we all error.

And so, God, we're asking for forgiveness for that right now, Lord, that you would cleanse our hearts from sin. As your word says in 1 John 1 and 9, if we confess our sins. He is faithful and just to forgive our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. So clean us, Lord. Clean us up. Clean our hearts. Clean our minds, God. Clean our thoughts. Keep our thoughts pure.

Faith, Trust, and Overcoming Fear

unto you, Father God, in Jesus' name. And we come to you in faith, believing that you hear us. This is oh so important, God. We have to come before you. believing that you are who you say you are and believing that you hear us and you said that you were mindful of us. So Father God, we come in faith. We're asking things in faith. We're praying in faith.

We are assembled in faith, believing that you are the God that hears his people. And Father God, we believe it. We believe it in our hearts. We believe it with our actions, even as we kneel, even as we. where you sit, or however our formation is, God, we're praying right now with belief that you hear us. Your word says, therefore I say unto you, whatsoever things you desire when you pray, believe that you receive them.

and ye shall have them. So we believe that this prayer is not in vain. This time is not in vain. We believe you will honor it. We believe you will honor our prayers. We believe you hear our prayers. We believe you are a God that is concerned about us. Father God, we trust in faith, believing that the things that we need and the things that we ask for, the things we petition you for, you will grant us. We believe it in Jesus name. And Lord, we are not.

afraid of things to come father god we are not operating in fear and though they uh just constantly are showing things that cause fear mongering and just you know things that just make us fearful and afraid and to take away our sanity and our comfort and our peace father god we are not disturbed by those things because we're not afraid because we rest in you the god that made everything god if you made everything then you knew what would come

And because you knew what would come, you can prepare us, protect us, and provide for us under any circumstance or situation. We have proof of it. The history of your word proves that you can do it. So, Father, we're not afraid. of things to come and we will not carry the spirit of fear. We will not have the spirit of fear. Father God, that is not from you. That is from the enemy. So we will not be afraid and we will trust in you, God.

put our trust our faith our confidence in the one who holds our future in his hands which is you God so we're not afraid of things to come and we will not receive the spirit of fear from this world 2 Timothy 1 and 7 tells us, For God hath not given us the spirit of fear, but of power. And of love and a sound mind. So we pray for that power right now to overcome all fearful thoughts, all scary thoughts, all just inhibitions for.

worrying about the future, all the things, Father God, that are racing thoughts, anxiety, depression, all of those things, God. We rebuke those things.

By your power, God, we rebuke those things and your love. And God, we rebuke it all so that we can have a sound mind, God. Let our minds be sound. Let us keep our balance. Let us keep our... confidence and our faith in you father god and not be led astray by what we're seeing and what we're hearing and what people are forwarding us and sending us and texting us and saying to us and all of these different things god

We rebuke the spirit of fear right now from us. We rebuke it from our homes. We rebuke it from our minds, our thoughts, our hearts. Father God, we rebuke it and we will not allow this spirit. to reside in us because this spirit of fear is not of you, but you give us power, you give us love, and you grant us a sound mind. So God, we claim those things right now by faith.

Deepening Knowledge and Curiosity for God

In Jesus' name. And Father, we're just going to pray for increase in certain areas, Father God. First, just increase our knowledge of you in this. hour just increase our knowledge for you lord god our knowledge of you give us a desire to spend more time in your word god help us to fall in love with what is written and believe it Father God, help us to not be lax in picking up the Bible and picking up the word and spending time reading.

listening even when we're riding in our cars God we turn on the word to listen to listen to it narrated for us but God help us to just keep the word around us in this hour Lord give us that And God, whatever hindrance, whatever is in the way of your word. taking root in our heart, remove it, Lord God, so that we can keep that desire, so we don't start and stop, so we don't just make pledges that we can't keep and make promises that we're going to read and study that we can't keep.

But Father, birth that desire in us. Whatever it takes, birth that desire in us, Father God. And God, we repent now for even being lax in that area. We repent now for just depending on the preacher and depending on what is given to us to understand that as your word. To use that to replace the time we spend reading and digesting the written word of God. We repent for that right now, Father God, as your people.

And we ask that you would just help us in that area to give us, God, the desire to spend more time. Just birth that desire, whatever it takes, whatever's in the way. Father God, it may be something that happened years ago where we lost confidence in that. something that the devil did, whatever it is, Father God, help us to desire to spend more time in your word so that we can increase our knowledge of you in this hour.

Psalms 119 and 105 says thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto our path. Father, how will we know where to go if we don't know your word? In this hour, how will we light our path through darkness without your word? all the darkness in our world, everything that is happening. We need your word. So God, let your word speak to us and give us that desire in Jesus name and give us a curiosity for you.

So we will spend more time learning and growing in you. A curiosity after the creation series, God. Let that just birth. us just wanting to know you better know more about you know what you're capable of know what you promised you would do just make us curious god and and so it won't just be google searches and

I watched this video, this documentary, this person said, that person. Father God, we can't trust what the internet is showing us. We can't trust what these people are saying. Father God, but we know. The one thing that is constant is your word and you are. You'll never change. You promised that in your word that you're always the same. So help us, Father God, be curious about you, your things, what you said, what you want from us.

Father God, birth that in us, God, so that it will increase our knowledge of you and help us to spend more time learning and growing in you. That's more prayer time, more talking to you. Father God, journaling and just... Being close to you in this hour, God, so that we won't put our faith and confidence in something that's going to come across our feed or something that's going to just be text to us or sent to us. But God, that we can be curious to find out what it is.

that the God that loves us wants from us in this hour. You are our God and we want your will.

Reverence, Passion, and Breaking Heaviness

For us, Matthew 11 and 29, take my yoke upon you and learn of me for I am meek and lowly in heart and ye shall find rest unto me. your soul so father as all of our a lot of people's souls are in travail right now with worry and stress and depression and anxiety and all these things you said that your yoke is easy and if we take it upon

If we take your yoke upon us and learn of you, Father God, you will give us the rest that we need. That means in times of turmoil, we can have peace and we can be. Resting in your word. Trusting in you while the devil's doing all kinds of things on the outside. God, we're trusting you on the inside. And we're believing in you. So give us that, Lord. Help us in.

that area and Lord give us a passion for who you truly are and keeping you in the proper place in our hearts and minds God so that we don't downgrade you to the human level but we keep you where you belong with reverence with respect for you father god so we don't just give you anything and then give the world our best so we don't give you just anything or what we have left and give our jobs the best so we don't just become people

that are motivated by money and what people are doing for us, but we will love you the best way we can. Father, give us that passion. keeping you in the proper place in our hearts and our minds. So when we consider you, we're considering the God of everything, the God that created the whole world, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

You're not a play thing. You're not seconds. You're not something that we just do because we say that we're saved. But you are the true and the living God. And we need to keep you in your proper way. place with respect with reverence with honor giving you those things God respecting you even when we're talking to you our language father God just how we approach you father God

Help us to be mindful of it so that we can keep you in the proper place. We need you in that place because you are our deliverer. We need you in that place because you're our only hope. So, Father, help us, God, to have a passion for who you truly are. 2 Corinthians 1 and 3 says, Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort.

So father God, we want you to be the God of the father of mercies for us to have mercy on us and then be the God of all comfort, comforting us in this hour. That is.

who you are and father help us to break free from mindsets and spiritual heaviness that weighs against our praise and adoration for you lord as we are just heavy with what is going on in our world and heavy with what they're showing and what they're saying and just not knowing how this thing is going to play out God it brings a heaviness upon many and spiritual heaviness

A mindset of heaviness and just feeling weighed down. So help us break free from that, Father God. All those things so that we can praise and adore you correctly. God, because those things weigh down on us. ways on our praise and our adoration for you. But Father God, we have to get past those things and quit concerning ourselves with things that we can't change.

and quit concerning ourselves with things we can't do anything about. We can't do anything about which president they pick. We can't do anything about the COVID lies and this pandemic. We can't do anything about what they're doing other than pray to you. and give you the praise and the adoration you deserve, knowing that you will protect us no matter what they do.

no matter what situation happens, no matter what it is. Father God, we can't stop this. We can't stop what the world is doing because the world is against you. We can't stop Bill Gates. We can't stop the vaccine. Those are things that they're going to do. But Father God, what we... can do is give you the praise and the adoration that you deserve knowing that in the time of testing you will not forsake us

And so we thank you, Lord, and we pray that that mindset be broken. I pray it right now, even with the power you've given me to just speak to the people that are listening. Father God, we just break. that mindset right now and deliver from spiritual heaviness right now in the name of Jesus lift those burdens let those burdens be lifted off

Father God, people have been cast away by their own family. They've been cast away by their own loved ones because they don't believe what the strong delusion is. Father, just... Break that mindset and that spiritual heaviness that is on them, that is weighing them down so that they can freely lift their hands to you. Call on your name with adoration and with praise in this hour. Father God, we need freedom and liberty.

praise you properly so let us i just speak it right now freedom upon those that are bound freedom upon those that are of heavy laden freedom and liberty in this last hour Doesn't matter what the devil's doing. We serve the God that makes us free and whom the son has said free is free indeed. Free to praise, free to worship, free to adore you, God.

Trusting God's Plan and Not Man

the right way psalms 111 and 1 says praise ye the lord i will praise the lord with my whole heart and that part is very key that means that we got to free our minds we got to free our spirits we can't Be carrying these things and give God our whole heart. Our whole heart needs to be given to him in praise. I will praise you, Lord, with my whole heart. So whatever is in my heart, whatever is in your way, whatever is weighing me down.

It has to go so that I can praise you like the word says with my whole heart in the assembly of the upright and in the congregation. We give you glory and honor in Jesus name. And Father God, increase our faith in your plan for us in this hour. Increase our faith. In your plan for us. We know you have a plan for us. Increase our faith in that. Not the plan of the world. Not the plan of the new world order. Not the plan for mankind that the world has. But increase our faith in your plan.

for us God no matter what the world is doing we believe that your plan is intact man can't change your plan your plan is the plan of the creator of all things so God no matter what the world is doing We believe your plan is intact. Our hope will remain in you and we will follow as you.

lead so lead us God no matter what the world is doing lead us God we will follow you increase our faith in the plan as you lead us God we want to walk the way you have ordained us to walk we want to walk in the steps that you've ordained for us we want to walk father god the way you want us to walk so father god i pray right now that our hope will remain in you

and we will follow as you lead. Psalms 118 and 8 says, it is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man. So God, if we've been, if our confidence was in... Donald Trump. Father God, our confidence belongs in you. If our confidence is in Joe Biden, our confidence belongs in you. It is better to trust in the Lord than to put our confidence in a man. No matter who we vote.

for no matter what what we were thinking father god our trust must be in you biden trump and whoever else can't do anything without your permission Father God, you are the God of all. So our trust is in you. And we put our faith, our confidence, and our trust in you in this hour, Lord God. And we're not going to put our confidence in man and what man can do. Man has already shown what they can do. What man is going to do is going to fail in the end.

You are God and we believe that you can do all things exceeding abundantly above anything we can even ask or think. And we believe that you did not bring us this far to leave us, God. You brought some of us out of sin. You brought us out of, well, you brought us all out of sin. You brought some of us out of the gutters, out of the alleys. Father God, out of the darkness that was in our hearts, the way we were living was so foul. You rescued us from.

all of that and you didn't do all of that just to leave us but father god we believe that you did it because it is a part of your plan and father god your plan is what we believe in so increase our faith in your plan father god because you are still god of everything so we trust in you For our future and not the powers of this earth. The wickedness of this earth has nothing to do with our future in you. Father God we trust your plan for us. You are our future.

You ordain it. What you want. And God we ask that you increase it. Our faith. Increase our faith. Even the more in that plan.

God's Constant Presence and Protection

Matthew 28 and 20, teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I had commanded you. And lo, I am with you always, even unto the end. of the world that is your promise to us that you are with us to the end of the world so however it plays out however it ends however whatever it is you said you will be with us until the end and we trust and we believe that in Jesus name. And what can man do to us that you are not governing? What can man do to us that you are not governing and ordaining?

Just as you built a hedge around Job, you have a hedge around us. And we trust in your divine protection. Thank you, Lord, for the hedge. We know many of us, God, that if the devil could have killed us, he would have done it a long time ago. Even the times when we wanted him to and we were ready to go, well, we thought we were ready to go, we thought we wanted to go. Your heads protect us, protected us even from ourselves.

from our foolishness, from our foolish wishes and wants. That hedge is around us and we thank you for it God. Man can't do anything to us that you're not governing. And we thank you, Lord, for that hedge of protection that is around us. And we trust in your divine protection. You are the divine protector, provider and priest of us all. So we thank you, Lord, for your divine. protection in this hour psalms 118 and 6 says the lord is on my side i will not fear what can man do unto me

You told us in your word not to fear man. So we don't fear man. We don't fear man. And that's including man's decision, man's plans. That's including man's greediness, man's lust. That's including all the things that... that are going on in our society with the billionaire elite and the luciferians and the the cobbled jews and just everything that is going on all the wickedness that

men are doing in our world your word tells us that man can't do anything to us that you don't ordain so father god we know that you are like your word said you are on our side and because of that we will not fear What man can do. And God, I pray right now that you would increase us and give us more faith in this hour to know that no matter how evil our world becomes, you are God. And as long as we are here.

You are here with us. So give us that faith, God. That confidence to know that you are here. Father God. Help us Father God to read the word and see how you were there for others. Help us to just Father God, talk to you and commune with you and feel your presence, hear you. Father God, help us so that we will be confident in this hour that you are here. No matter how evil the world gets in our prayer closets, in our 101.

we're with you father god that evil cannot penetrate but father god we know your presence we know you are walking with us we know you are listening to us we know even now this moment We are priority to you, God. We are your children and we believe that. So God, increase our faith in that area so that we can.

Even when we see the evil that is going on, even when we hear it, even when we read about it, even when someone tells us about it, God, it doesn't change anything for us because we know you're still God. And as long as we are here. You are here with us. Hebrews 13 and 5. Let your conversation be without covetousness and be content with such things you have. For he hath said, I will never leave thee.

nor forsake thee. God, we believe that, that you will never leave us. Even when we've tried to leave you, you brought us back because you will never leave us. Love us, God. You love us beyond our inconsistencies and our failures and our errors. You love us in spite of those. Father God, you're not a human man. You don't get mad and turn your back on us. Father God, you love us because you promised that you would never leave nor forsake us. So we believe you're here.

Resisting Enemy's Noise and Delusion

We believe you are here with us right now in Jesus' name. And finally, Father God, we want to increase our resistance to the noise of the enemy. Lord, we just thank you even for the word of... Part 13 of social esteem and how you just showed us the noise, the noise of the many waters and how the waters represent voices and noises.

All the different things that are going on in our world right now, the noise of the Internet, the noise of just social media, the noise of our neighbors and our relatives and people that just have bought totally into the strong delusion that is. happening that you said you would sin in this hour and father god we ask that you just increase our resistance increase it lord increase it god

increase our resistance to this noise so that this noise, Father God, will not influence us. Help us to not believe everything we see and hear on the news and social media. Father God, help us help people help us, Father God, to just know that what we're seeing is scripted. What we're seeing is a plan. What we're seeing is an evil, wicked plan. All the news.

people, as I showed in the video, are saying the same thing. And Father God, social media is just making people panic and fearful and fear mongering. Father God, I pray right now that you would help us to be discerning, not to believe everything that we see and hear on the news and social media and deliver us from this strong from this strong delusion deliver us father God from strong delusion

So we won't fall for it, any part of it. Father God, when it creeps up and tries to influence us, deliver us from it. Deliver us from it. When somebody says something that makes us go, hmm, well, I didn't think about that. Deliver us from it so that it will not be. deny us, Father God. It will not be. It will not influence us. Father God, make us strong in this hour to not believe it, not accept it. You've brought us too far with truth.

So let only truth reside in our hearts. And if it doesn't line up with your word, we're not trusting it. We're not trusting it. Father God, we're not trusting it. We're not trusting it no matter who's saying it. No matter if the left is saying it or the right is saying it. The leftist or the rightist. Father God, the Republicans, the Democrats. Father God, if they aren't quoting your word, if they aren't standing on your word, it's not truth. And we don't receive it.

And we won't fall for it. We won't fall for the lesser of two evils and the whole idea that somebody that is a Freemason can actually be leading.

people to you father god we're not falling for any of that in this last hour so we speak against all strong delusion no matter what side it's coming from no matter what the media is saying and doing no matter what is happening God we speak against strong delusion right now that we will be safe from it for our families and we will stand on nothing but the rock of truth the rock of our salvation what you have spoken in Jesus name second Thessalonians 2 and 12 says

Discernment Against False Teachings

and that they all might be damned to believe not the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness so father god we're not having pleasure in unrighteousness so we won't be damned in this hour we believe in the truth which is our protection from the

strong delusion father God we believe that the truth is our protection and we stand and we rest on it in Jesus name and increase our discernment so strange voices doctrines and false prophecies we will not follow father god help us to discern and know when man is just speaking to

get likes and views and speaking to get comments and speaking or when it's just witchcraft that is being spoken to plant seeds in our hearts and in our minds father god help us to be able to discern let your holy ghost power bring discernment in our lives so that we can tell the truth from the lie even in its infancy even if it's a lie mixed with truth father god help us to rightly divide it with your word and help us to discern

By your power and by your spirit. Every strange voice. Take it away from us right now. Every strange voice that's trying to speak. Doubt in us that's trying to speak. and influence us God take it away right now Father God and all false doctrines of men Father God doctrines created because of emotionalism and men just wanting platforms. Father God remove those from us. And God all false prophecies. All the doomsday prophecies. All the people that.

can just mysteriously see everything that's going to happen now but they couldn't see the mask and the covid before it happened so father we pray against all false prophecies right now how you got a word right now and you can tell us what the future holes that's a lie because you couldn't tell us that we were here right now we were gonna be here right now so father remove all of that noise away from us all of it father god unsubscribe some people unsubscribe them from some of these

that they own father god just let these false prophecies just not be named among us so we won't be led astray and going doing things because somebody said it somebody thought to say it we read it on the internet father they forced so many people onto the internet and they're at home now and many times they get bored and just start googling and looking for stuff and end up with a head full of knowledge that they shouldn't have a head full of false knowledge a head full of premature knowledge

A head full of someone else's passion to make money or to get life. So Father, I pray against it all right now. All strange voices, all doctrines, false doctrines and all false prophecies. We will not follow them.

In the name of Jesus, 1 John 2 and 27, but the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you. This is the power of the Holy Ghost, that anointing. And ye need not that any man teach you, but as the same... anointing teaches you of all things and is truth and is no lie and even as it has taught you he shall abide in him this is a relationship with the holy ghost this is the power that brings the right teacher into

your life this is the power that brings the right pastor into your life the right leadership in this hour this power will unite We'll be united with the power of the speaker. So Father, we can't just listen to any and everyone. We can't accept everything that everyone is saying as truth. But God, we want to listen to the power of that anointing that dwelleth in us.

so that it can rightly divide and discern and tell us what is good for us in this hour what we shouldn't hear father god what we should believe let your spirit speak to us in this hour in jesus

Standing Firm Against End-Time Agenda

name and deliver us father god from the opinions and the false narratives of the global reset the new world order the false pandemic our election process and the emotional pull of satan's end time agenda god Everything that the devil is doing now is emotions based. And he's pulling on that area of our lives, Father God, that may not be covered by you. That area, Father God, of inconsistency, of dysfunction, wherever it came from, a dysfunctional upbringing, a traumatic experience.

emotionally to pull us away from each other with this global reset with this new world order this false pandemic to shut down the churches to stop the fellowship to stop us from worshiping together because there is strength and power in the numbers When we come together, when we come together, Father God.

So those that don't want to be saved they're not going to receive the truth. But God I pray right now those of us that want to be saved. Father I pray that we will not be deceived in this hour. And fall away in this hour. In this last hour. This last testing. Help us to stand strong against the plight of the enemy. And increase our boldness Father God to stand planted and firm in this hour of testing. Help us Father God to be bold. Help us to stand planted and firm.

In this hour of testing, no matter what they bring, no matter what happens, if we build ourselves up in the most holy faith, we'll be able to stand. Plan it. Help us to not be moved. or fall victim to the slight of men's hands. Help us to stand in this hour, God, in this last and final hour. Help us to stand and not be moved. Psalms 1 and 3 says, and he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water. So no matter what kind of waters are flowing, noises and voices and opinions.

We will bring forth fruit in his season. His leaves shall not wither and whatsoever he doeth, even in this hour of people not having much, we're going to prosper in this hour. So, Father, I pray right now that you increase our boldness for you. All of the things we've prayed tonight will increase our boldness in this hour to stand planted.

We may have to stand up against family members. We may have to stand up against friends, longtime friends. We may have to stand up against our bosses on our job, whatever the case. We may have to stand up against the government. We may be contending with the powers that be, but whatever it is, give us the boldness to stand planted and firm in this hour of testing so we will not be moved.
