I Prayed have prayed
Lord, we thank You for how Your Word has guided and shaped our nation. As America celebrates 250 years, we pray it would return to the strong foundation of Your Scripture.

Join us in praying through the Bible next year! 

249 years ago, the United States of America was born. 249 years ago, the Bible was the most important document to our founding fathers and established our nation on the principles that we find in Scripture. 

Who is praying on the wall?

 

Today, the necessity for America to rely upon the Bible has not changed. 

Today, our nation needs to be reminded of these biblical principles and how the hand of God can guide us. 

God is not done with America! 

We at Intercessors for America spend every day praying for our nation and its leaders, and the official Pray for America Bible leads you in doing that.  

I would like to introduce The Pray for America Bible with features that include: 

  • A daily reading with prayer prompts at the start of each day, linking themes of the text (for example, a Psalm of lament, a prophetic vision, a New Testament teaching) with national-level concerns: leadership, freedom, justice. 
  • Special full-color pages interspersed in the Bible that highlight prayers for America: featuring Biblically based speeches, proclamations, and prayers from past and current leaders. 
  • A reading-plan structure: the text is organized so that readers engage Scripture over a year, with each day’s portion encouraging prayer for America’s challenges and hopes—much like a “One-Year Bible” format. Indeed, reviewers observed that the NLT Pray for America Bible uses a “read-through-in-a-year” structure, with daily prayer prompts for the nation.  

In a time of celebrating our 250th Anniversary, IFA’s Pray for America Bible offers an invitation: to pause, open Scripture, pray, reflect, engage, and move from private faith into public hope.  

It reminds readers that their voices, lifted in prayer for leadership, justice, families, media, education, and business, do matter. As one of our board members put it, “If enough of us will pray for our nation, we may help stir the kind of renewal America needs—not by power, but by the quiet strength of God at work through people.”
