(LifeSiteNews) — In what has been described as an “historic gesture,” Tennessee Governor Bill Lee has signed a bill calling for 30 days of prayer and fasting beginning July 1 in the Volunteer State.
Tennessee House Joint Resolution 0803 asks the people of the state “to seek God’s hand of mercy healing on Tennessee.”
A letter signed by Tennessee state Senator Mark Pidy and Representative Monty Fritts accompanying the resolution invites “those who are physically able and spiritually inclined to do so to join in a 30-day season of prayer and intermittent fasting for the month of July as a means of humbling ourselves to receive God’s grace, mercy, and blessing in Tennessee and in our Nation.”
“We are respectfully inviting you to join with us in leading the people of God across Tennessee into a time of humbling ourselves, praying, seeking God’s Face, and repentance during July,” explain Pidy and Fritts.
The language of the legislators is reminiscent of 2 Chronicles 7:14: “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
They ask that the resolution be read during church services across the state on Sunday, June 30, and for congregants to:
“Examine our lives in light of God’s Word and confess of our sins,”
“Acknowledge that we, as the Church, have failed to stand for the principles of God, ask for His Forgiveness and Mercy, and commit to stand firmly on those principles going forward,”
“For those who are able, join in prayer and intermittent fasting as a means of demonstrating our desire for repentance.”
The resolution begins by acknowledging the many ways that the “State and Nation suffer from violence committed upon our citizens by our citizens” and “non-citizens.”
The people of Tennessee are called to repent and pray because “human trafficking is an unacceptable and violent evil in our State, enslaving lives and violating the core values of our Creator-endowed rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”
The resolution goes on to acknowledge that drug addiction overwhelms Tennessee families and the state’s finances, especially fentanyl.
“We have approximately 9,000 children in need of foster care, indicating a brokenness in many Tennessee homes,” the resolution continues, and “corruption in our federal government stands to impact every Tennessean.”]/b]

This current president has put this nation at such risk for a significant attack it is concerning. It will happen. It is not a matter of if, it is When.

I think it will happen, but not until the White House is vegetable free. They are using the weakness of Biden to build their forces here and when they lose that ability, they will strike before we can clean house. If Trump wins the election, terrorists will strike before inauguration.
