How to Pray for America

by Adrian Rogers

These are important days indeed - ones that need our attention and diligence. But attention and diligence in what?

Revival prayer. Only prayer can hold back the floodtide of sin and God's judgment and release the cleansing, healing hand of God.

Decades earlier, Irving Berlin had written the song as patriotic entertainment for a military revue. When entertainer Kate Smith approached him with her plans for an anniversary broadcast on her weekly radio program, however, he thoroughly revised the lyrics with serious, prayerful intent. Through the power of radio, “God Bless America” became an instant success.
