Dear Friends,
Today marks the beginning of our 40 Days to Save America campaign—a time of prayer, fasting, and repentance for our nation. In these next 40 days, we stand together as believers, united by our faith, to intercede for the future of America.
As we begin this journey, I’m reminded of the story of Jonah and Nineveh. The people of Nineveh were given 40 days to repent, and through their humility and turning back to God, their city was spared from destruction. In many ways, America finds itself at a similar crossroads. We are being called to return to our Judeo-Christian foundations, to humble ourselves, and seek God’s mercy for our nation.
Today is a day for reflection and repentance. As we look inward, let us acknowledge the ways we have drifted from God’s will, both as individuals and as a nation. We ask for forgiveness, believing in the promise found in 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.”
Let this day be the start of a spiritual renewal in our lives and in the life of this country. May we humble ourselves before God and commit to seeking His guidance during this campaign.
As we enter into these 40 days, we also remember that this is a significant season in the Jewish calendar, traditionally leading up to Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement—a day focused on repentance and restoration. What better way for us to begin this campaign than by aligning our hearts with the spirit of repentance and the hope of renewal?
Today, I invite you to:
Pray: Spend time in prayer, asking God for His forgiveness for our personal and national sins.
Fast: Consider fasting a meal or time during your day to seek God more deeply.
Reflect: Reflect on how God is calling you to participate in this movement and how we can be agents of change in our communities.
May this day be the beginning of a mighty move of God across our nation.
Daily Prayer for Repentance and Renewal
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today in humility and repentance. We acknowledge that we have strayed from Your will, both individually and as a nation. We ask for Your forgiveness, and we seek Your guidance as we begin this campaign. Just as You spared Nineveh when its people turned back to You, we ask for Your mercy and grace to fall upon America. Lead us in these 40 days, O Lord, and stir a revival in our hearts.
In Jesus’ mighty and holy name, we pray. Amen.
Pastor Paul Begley’s Prayer and Call for 40 Days of Prayer, Fasting, and Repentance for Revival
As we launch these 40 Days to Save America, Pastor Paul Begley, co-author of Revelation 911, joins Troy Anderson in calling for a powerful movement of 40 days of prayer, fasting, and repentance for national revival.

Pastor Begley’s Prayer:
Father, in the name of Jesus, we thank you for blessing us today. We thank you, God, for the United States of America. We thank you, Lord, that you have founded this land, and it was completely dedicated to you by the 34 pilgrims on the Mayflower Compact to dedicate this land from sea to shining sea for the freedoms to worship you, Lord, the freedoms of our faith in you and our Judeo-Christian values to establish a government founded on the people, for the people, and by the people.
Father, we just pray that you will bless this nation. Help our country to repent and to call on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and we do this collectively, Lord. You said if any two of us would agree touching any one thing, it shall be done, and Lord, we are collectively with thousands and thousands of people across this nation, we are going to join all of us in prayer to believe that, God, you will save America.
And so we ask this now, Lord, and we will be for 40 straight days starting every YouTube video—the first YouTube video of every day—with prayer and fasting to save America. Thank you, Lord, for answering our prayers. In Jesus' name, Amen.
Prayer for President Donald Trump, JD Vance, Their Families, and Team
Dear Heavenly Father,
We lift up President Donald Trump, JD Vance, their families, and their team to You and ask for Your divine protection over them. In this time of turmoil and uncertainty, we know there are threats against them, and we pray that You would send Your angels to guard them. Keep them safe from harm, thwart any schemes or plots designed to bring them down, and give wisdom and discernment to those responsible for their security.
We ask that You surround them with peace, courage, and strength as they continue to lead. Bless their families with unity, comfort, and protection in the face of adversity. May Your hand of favor be upon their team as they work to fulfill their mission for the future of our nation. Guide them with Your wisdom, and let Your will be done in their lives.
In Jesus’ holy and mighty name, we pray. Amen.
Daily President’s Prayer: Thanksgiving Proclamation by President George Washington
By the President of the United States of America: A Proclamation.
Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor; and Whereas both Houses of Congress have, by their joint committee, requested me ‘to recommend to the people of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness:’
Now, therefore, I do recommend and assign Thursday, the 26th day of November next, to be devoted by the people of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection of the people of this country previous to their becoming a nation; for the signal and manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of His Providence, which we experienced in the course and conclusion of the late war; for the great degree of tranquillity, union, and plenty, which we have since enjoyed; for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, particularly the national one now lately instituted; for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and, in general, for all the great and various favors which He hath been pleased to confer upon us.
And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations, and beseech Him to pardon our national and other transgressions; to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually; to render our national government a blessing to all the people by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed; to protect and guide all sovereigns and nations (especially such as have shown kindness unto us), and to bless them with good government, peace, and concord; to promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science among them and us; and generally to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as He alone knows to be best.
Given under my hand, at the city of New York, the third day of October, in the year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and eighty-nine.
George Washington
You can find the full text of this proclamation through historical archives or government sources such as George Washington’s Thanksgiving Proclamation 3 October 1789 - Founders Online.
This prayer is a powerful reminder of our nation’s foundation in faith, humility, and obedience to God. As we go through this 40-day journey, we can reflect on these same values, seeking God’s protection and favor over America.
Here’s an excerpt from Dr. Larry Keefauver’s Prayers of the Presidents.
Almighty God,
We make our earnest prayer that Thou wilt keep the United States in Thy holy protection: that Thou wilt incline the hearts of the citizens to cultivate a spirit of subordination and obedience to government, and entertain a brotherly affection and love for one another and for their fellow citizens of the United States at large. And finally that Thou wilt most graciously be pleased to dispose us all to do justice, to love mercy, and to demean ourselves with that charity, humility, and pacific temper of mind which were the characteristics of the Divine Author of our blessed religion, and without a humble imitation of whose example in these things we can never hope to be a happy nation. Grant our supplication, we beseech Thee, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.— A DAILY PRAYER OF GEORGE WASHINGTON —
FROM THE PRAYER JOURNAL OF GEORGE WASHINGTON
Almighty God…
I yield thee humble and hearty thanks that thou has preserved me from the danger of the night past, and brought me to the light of the day, and the comforts thereof, a day which is consecrated to thine own service and for thine own honor. Let my heart, therefore, Gracious God, be so affected with the glory and majesty of it, that I may not do mine own works, but wait on thee, and discharge those weighty duties thou requirest of me. Give me grace to hear thee calling on me in thy word, that it, may be wisdom, righteousness, reconciliation and peace to the saving of the soul in the day of the Lord Jesus. Grant that I may hear it with reverence, receive it with meekness, mingle it with faith, and that it may accomplish in me, Gracious God, the good work for which thou has sent it.Bless my family, kindred, friends and country, be our God and guide this day and forever for His sake, who lay down in the Grave and arose again for us, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
