This State Is Publicly Seeking God After Lawmakers Declared 31 Days of Prayer and Fasting

Share:

A powerful prayer movement is springing to life in America’s heartland. People across Tennessee are engaged in 31 days of prayer and fasting after state officials approved a resolution to “seek God’s hand of mercy and healing” throughout the month of July.

After state lawmakers passed House Joint Resolution 803, Governor Bill Lee signed the resolution which calls on citizens of the Volunteer State to pray and fast as they are able. State Representative Monty Fritts was the author of the measure.

“We recognize that God, as Creator and King of all Glory, has both the authority to judge and to bless nations or states,” the resolution declares.

The resolution points to the need for prayer by highlighting crises plaguing the state and nation including violent crime, human trafficking, drug addiction, the fentanyl crisis, children in foster care, and government corruption.

Christians across the state have been praying, while pastors and even public officials are leading believers to seek God together. WBBJ reports about one event in which Madison County Mayor AJ Masey, Rep. Chris Todd, several county commissioners, city council members, law enforcement, and school board members publicly gathered to pray together.

Pastor Garry Martin of Jackson First Assembly was among them, stating, “Everything that we’re doing in our country is not changing anything. And they (lawmakers) realize that the one element that’s missing is the presence of God in our relationships, in our meetings, and across America.”

The resolution has even prompted calls for prayer and fasting in other states too.

California Pastor Jack Hibbs of Calvary Chapel Chino Hills called upon “every pastor” and “every Christian church” in the nation to join with Tennessee and intercede for America and all the states. “Let’s all be Tennesseans this month of July and pray and fast as the Lord leads,” stated Pastor Hibbs.
