Let us join together in prayer for this nation, and gather and challenge others to do the same.
One of the points Stanley made, and I agree with, and from your post, suspect you would to. Stanley said that in order for God to hear or listen to our prayers, we must live our lives as Christ requires.
2 Chronicles 7:14 and My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
The verse (a specific promise to the unique literal holy nation of the literal Jews) does not carry over exactly, but it stands by analogy as a reminder of how God deals with mortal men according to common grace. The more people of a country that do things right (His principles), the more common grace God will give. God does this even to pagan nations, e.g. India.
