Cause the spirits of confusion to be cast out and light to shine in every place darkness tries to hide evil.

There has been released video footage of young high school boys in California gathering together giving Hitler salutes and singing Nazi anthems. -> This is the result of a culture having left a whole generation of young people (especially young men) without a sense of solid identity or heritage, or of a cause larger than self, and without a nation to call their own.

This is the result of the race-baiting propaganda that claims being American is something to be ashamed of, that we are defined by the color of our skin and not by the content of our character, and that America is defined solely by the darkness of her past mistakes rather than by the redemptive power of the principles she was founded on.

I pray for an end to this madness. I pray against the antichrist spirits of Nazism and Marxism -- these atheistic utopian delusions clung to by the most spiritually vulnerable among us. --> These substitutions for identity and belonging spurred on by apocalyptic hopelessness, and the lies of Satan which point to a dead-end reality.

Yes, as Christians, we know we belong ultimately to the city of God that is to come -- but we are also called to honor our place in the city of Man we abide in now in the body. And in that spirit, the very spirit that drives this American Prayer Vigil team daily -- I pray for a restoration of God-honoring patriotism especially among our youth.

To open oneself to the outside, you must have a solid core. To welcome, you have to remain, and to share, you must have something to offer. Without nation, and without family, the limits of the common good, natural law, and collective morality disappears, as the reign of egoism continues. - Marion Marechal of France (Marine Le Pen's niece) speaking at CPAC 2018.

I echo all the praises and petitions offered here today
I especially echo Condoleezza's prayer for a restoration of God-honoring patriotism especially among our youth.

Dear Lord, may the leadership of this nation seek Your counsel. May those in authority who defy You, forfeit their positions. That Lord, as a nation we would repent of our falling away. As a nation, may we never again welcome the spirit of the anti-Christ, but may we seek victory in You.

we ask these things in Jesus' name
