Prayers for America

Last night we were at a meeting where a pastor from America, Michael Fletcher, spoke. The auditorium was full--not only were there people from many churches in Debrecen, but there were people from around Hungary and Hungarian-speaking people from Romania. It was an awesome service with enthusiastic worship, an anointed message and a phenomenal response to the call to allow God to use us and what we have any way He wants. At the end of the service, the leader in charge asked for a pastor to lead in prayer for Hungary. As he prayed, everyone in the building passionately called out to God for Hungary. Then the leader asked another pastor to lead in prayer for Romania since there were representatives from Romania present. Even though Romania and Hungary have had many disputes in the past, this prayer, too, was passionate. Then, the leader in charge said that there was one other country represented and that we should pray for America, too. The prayer leader thanked God for the good things that have come out of America and went on to pray for repentance of the many evil things now present in the US. We were deeply touched by the heartfelt prayer for America.
We personally continually pray for both of our countries, Hungary and the US. Both countries are in desperate need of God. But when people from another country pray for the country of our birth, not only are we profoundly moved, but we know that God will answer.
