PRAYER THAT WORKS
Prayer language from the Declaration

A special welcome for international readers of The Smart Edit—your connection is truly appreciated!

Every nation on the planet needs our prayer. Did you know that nations are God's idea, serving as a check against global evil?

This week, we're celebrating Independence Week in the U.S. On July 4th, we mark America’s birthday. And in 2026, we’ll celebrate 250 years!

I see America in its young adulthood, facing important issues of identity and destiny. This can be a healthy crisis.

Let's lift America in prayer, both here and internationally. Consider using the powerful “prayer language” from the Declaration of Independence.

And by the way, this Declaration “prayer language” works for any nation. The truths are universal and timeless.

🎆 Heavenly Father, we praise you that truth is “self-evident” and shines through nature, history, and the human conscience. You made us all equal, in your image. Give us revelation and understanding.

🎆 Creator God, thank You for unalienable rights that come from You alone, not from people or governments. They’re ours forever. Empower us to steward them well.

🎆 Father, we recognize that government is Your idea, meant to protect the rights You’ve given us. Help Americans understand that our government is based on the consent of the people. Help us to be upright, strong, engaged.

🎆 With America’s founders, we appeal to heaven, to the “Supreme Judge of the World.” Guide and strengthen our intentions as a people. Give us your success.

🎆 We rely on Your guidance, strength, and providence. We trust You completely and draw our strength from You. You are sovereign over all nations.

RENEWING THE MIND
Higher thoughts

Law: Natural law (“the laws of nature and of nature’s God”) ➡️ Mosaic Law (Torah) ➡️ the Law of Christ.

On: Quest to be on point, on message, on time, and on assignment as you are led by the Holy Spirit.

In front: Get in front of things. Over-the-horizon prayer and planning. Readiness is positional power.

STELLAR QUOTE
Are we quietly submitting to evil?

Frederick Douglass (1817 or 1818-1895) was the most important leader of the movement for African-American civil rights in the 1800s. He was prominently known for his anti-slavery writings and also advocated for several social justice causes, including women's right to vote. He wrote, "I prayed for freedom for twenty years, but received no answer until I prayed with my legs."
