Lord, awaken Your church to a renewed focus on the fear of the Lord. We ask that the fear of the Lord would overtake any fear of circumstances.

Why do many young people hate America and think we’d be better off as a socialist country? We’ve all heard about “fake news,” but there’s something even more dangerous: Teaching “fake history,” based on reading and believing Howard Zinn’s best-selling “A People’s History of the United States,” according to Mary Grabar, Ph.D

First published in 1980, “A People’s History” has sold more than 2.5 million copies and is in virtually every school district, university and local library. It paints America as a darkly evil nation whose every advance came at others’ expense. In 2007, “A Young People’s History of the United States” was published in two volumes (“Columbus to the Spanish-American War” and “Class Struggle to the War on Terror”).

In her long-needed and extensive corrective, “Debunking Howard Zinn” (Regnery 2019), Ms. Grabar provides numerous examples of Zinn’s revisionism of our history.

“I’ve rescinded the previous administration’s harmful ban on diversity and sensitivity training, and abolished the offensive, counterfactual 1776 Commission. Unity and healing must begin with understanding and truth, not ignorance and lies.”

So, unity and healing begin when you silence all other voices, and we all admit that the Left is right and we’re wrong. That is essentially what he’s saying here. Unity begins with censorship and surrender.

The 1619 Project is truth and the 1776 Commission is offensive and counterfactual. Then, he talks about our founding principles — written out clearly on paper in 1776.

He asked ‘why don’t we talk to each other anymore?’ Perhaps because every time we open our mouths, you call us liars, haters, bigots, threaten our livelihoods, or try to shut us down completely. But, there will be healing and peace if only… we acknowledge that your world view is the correct one. I.e., surrender.

Folks, just know that unity begins with becoming a totalitarian / Leftist. This brought to you by our president. How soon before we all militaristically march and extend our right arms straight out to our new president?

Another sad and I’ll conceived act / statement from the new administration. Ironically, Biden addresses (or pretends to) the theme of racial fairness and of course, diversity. But again, another lie because if Biden was really concerned about diversity “in all areas of life”, then he would address and take action against big tech which has run rampant and censored opposing viewpoints or opinions that “they do not agree with”. So much for truth in diversity. America will get “words, phrases and statements” with this administration. Those have little to do with facts or truth.

What do I think about Biden bringing back Critical Race Theory?

First of all, I think it is anti-christian and wrong for one race of people to say and think they have a right to oppress people of color.

Secondly, it is a marxist motivated ideology and totally ignors God, who made heaven and earth, therefore makes this ideology – atheistic.

Thirdly, I think people that have been historically oppressed, and I should say even as of today some are still oppressed. They are the ones that really can identify with what bringing back Critical Race Theory means.

Father, we pray and ask for your guidance, wisdom and understanding as we pray against this critical race theory ideology implemented by those who want control to further their economic and political interests at the expense of people of colour.

Father Your word is very clear as to how we are all created equal and how we are to treat one another but it is no longer so, instead “Racism” is the cry of today.

“And he made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place.” Acts 17:26

“If anyone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen. And this commandment we have from him: whoever loves God must also love his brother.” 1 John 4:20-21

“Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.” Ephesians 4:29-32

Father God, we pray we will be both discerning and loving in the ways we engage in praying against Critical Race Theory in our Nation. And as we pray, to guard the integrity of our faith, even from our own experiences, biases, and blind spots we have. And that we would be humble enough to learn from non-Christians, recognizing God’s common grace. And because the Bible clearly states that as
Christians we must never lose sight of the most important need of others: to become part of the most ethnically diverse and sanctified gathering in history—a “great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb” Revelation 7:9

Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven.

In Jesus’s name. Amen.

Lord, how dangerous is the speed at which information travels in today’s world. We used to sit and read a book, in a quiet place, and ponder what we read. Now we are bombarded with data and energized to act without time to think. All men were created equal with certain unalienable rights; among these life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. We all have sin crouching at our door, and we “timshel” ( Hebrew for May) rule over it. Guide us Lord to take responsibility for our own situations, and not blame others.Help me Lord, to help and encourage anyone I meet today to do the hard work of making right and Godly chooses. Amen

For those who might not have done research on CRT:
Critical race theory (CRT)is a theoretical framework in the social sciences that examines society and culture as they relate to categorizations of race, law, and power. It is loosely unified by two common themes. Firstly, CRT proposes that white supremacy and racial power are maintained over time, and in particular, that the law may play a role in this process. Secondly, CRT work has investigated the possibility of transforming the relationship between law and racial power, as well as pursuing a project of achieving racial emancipation and anti-subordination more broadly. Developed out of postmodern philosophy, it is based on critical theory, a social philosophy that argues that social problems are influenced and created more by societal structures and cultural assumptions than by individual and psychological factors. It began as a theoretical movement within American law schools in the mid- to late 1980s as a reworking of critical legal studies on race issues. – From: Wikipedia

    I have never heard so much garbely-goop In my life as this definition. It is truly a perfect example of saying something that tries to appear as saying something! No wonder the wisdom of the world is foolishness to God! And no wonder people end up having no knowledge apart from God. It is like the blind leading the blind, you end up bumping into walls or a maze and confusion results, breeding confusion.

    I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.
    Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made the foolish the wisdom of the world?
    1Cor. 1:19,20.

    The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Psalm 111:10a.

    He catches the wise in their craftiness and the schemes of the wily are swept away. Darkness comes upon them in the daytime; at noon they grope as in the night. he saves the needy from the sword in their mouth; He saves them (us) from the clutches of the powerful. So the poor (in spirit) have hope, and injustice shuts its mouth!!! Job 5: 13-16.

    So, Lord God in Jesus name; I Shirley Pedersen (and prayerfully your saints) agree to decree the enemies of your gospel are caught in all their craftiness, schemes and fall into their own nets of deviltry; that they be confounded and confused in their vain thinking and imaginations of what is true and as they stumble in their darkness they will hopefully turn to your light to escape and find salvation and forgiveness, mercy and grace.

O Lord, for the second time in this day which has barely begun, I feel compelled to recite Isaiah 5:20 “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.” Lord I feel this man is but a puppet of far darker, more sinister actors who are trying to send this country down a path that is 180 degrees different than the one You had set for us and placed us upon on July 4th, 1776. Lord, protect us from their evil, deceitful teachings, and confound their efforts to corrupt us. Especially protect our youth, who are perhaps their most desired victims. Lord, we are now on a path of darkness; please light our way through, and may we in turn help others find the path of light in these dark days. In Jesus precious name I pray, O’ Lord, Amen.
