This is well well worth the time. Gives you something beside yourself to think about. When was the last time, we saw our Government pause in prayer for our Nation. They reflected, spoke to the Nation, addresses the Nation, but I have found no where did our leaders lead us in prays. I dont believe that we where meant to turn our backs of God as we have. Check the facts and you will see...dont take my word. When I hear Billy Gram, John Hagee, Rick Warren, the Pope, to name a few. they all tell us to pray not just by ourselves but together. On the morning of the day on which our illustrious President will be invested with his office, the bells will ring at nine oclock, when the people may go up to the house of God and in a solemn manner commit the new government, with its important and train of consequences, to the holy protection and blessing of the Most High. An early hour is prudently fixed for this peculiar act of devotion and is designed wholly for prayer. So, on the morning of April 30, 1789, the sounds of bells filled the nations capital for thirty minutes, calling the people to go up to the house of God , to commit the new government to the holy protection and blessing of the Most High. As for the nations first president and government, it would later that same day that they would gather in prayer to commit the future into Gods hands, at a place especially chosen for that purpose. So after the new president finished delivering the first presidential address, he would lend the Senate and the House of Representatives on foot in a procession through the streets of the capital from Federal Hall, to the site of the inauguration, to the place appointed for their prayers. And what was the place appointed ? I asked. A little stone church. pg. 202, The Harbinger, Jonathan Cahn On April 30, 1789 Washington was sworn as president of the United States in the original capital city of New York at Wall Street, then President Washington lead the Congress and House to St. Pauld Chapel at GROUND ZERO to bowed together in prayer to consecrate the nations future into the Hands of God. Solomon commitment of the Temple and Israel 54 When Solomon had finished all these prayers and supplications to the Lord, he rose from before the altar of the Lord, where he had been kneeling with his hands spread out toward heaven. 55 He stood and blessed the whole assembly of Israel in a loud voice, saying: 56 “Praise be to the Lord, who has given rest to his people Israel just as he promised. Not one word has failed of all the good promises he gave through his servant Moses. 57 May the Lord our God be with us as he was with our ancestors; may he never leave us nor forsake us. 58 May he turn our hearts to him, to walk in obedience to him and keep the commands, decrees and laws he gave our ancestors. 59 And may these words of mine, which I have prayed before the Lord, be near to the Lord our God day and night, that he may uphold the cause of his servant and the cause of his people Israel according to each day’s need, 60 so that all the peoples of the earth may know that the Lord is God and that there is no other. 61 And may your hearts be fully committed to the Lord our God, to live by his decrees and obey his commands, as at this time.” Destruction of First Temple Foreseen The prophet Jeremiah predicted the destruction of the Jerusalem and a seventy year captivity of the people. He also pronounced judgment on those who would destroy her, namely the Babylonians. It was only a matter of time until the times of the First Temple were to come to a sad and terrible end: And the whole land [of Israel] shall be a desolation and an astonishment, and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years. Then it will come to pass, when seventy years are completed, that I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation, the land of the Chaldeans, for their iniquity, says the Lord; and I will make it a perpetual desolation. (Jeremiah 25:12, 13). This list is arranged by chamber, then by state. Senators are listed in order of seniority, and Representatives are listed by district. Senate[edit] Senators were elected by the state legislatures every two years, with one-third beginning new six-year terms with each Congress. Preceding the names in the list below are Senate class numbers, which indicate the cycle of their election. In this Congress, all Senators were newly elected, and Class 1 meant their term ended with this Congress, requiring reelection in 1790; Class 2 meant their term ended with the next Congress, requiring reelection in 1792; and Class 3 meant their term lasted through the next two Congresses, requiring reelection in 1794.
