On May 2, we held our 2019 National Day of Prayer service and united in prayer for America across our campus!
Watch this video with Pastor Greg Stephens, as he takes us behind the scenes for our 2019 National Day of Prayer activities. We organized 30 prayer groups across our campus. Each group had a specific prayer assignment to address, including repentance, abortion, the spirit of division, relationships between America and Israel, ungodly legislation, an awakening to God in America and so much more!
Our nation seems to have so many dividing issues, you may be wondering how you can make a difference. Well, you can by shining the light of God’s love everywhere you go and by praying for our nation to awaken to the love of God. When we, as the Church, choose to pray and choose love over hate, unity over division and life over death, God promises that He will heal our land (2 Chronicles 7:14).
There are two things our nation could use more prayer and love! Love is what sets us apart as Christians. We are not known by our creeds, songs, doctrine, knowledge, achievements or appearance…we are only known by our love!
That’s why the theme for the 2019 National Day of Prayer is Love One Another. The theme comes from the words of Jesus in John 13:34, “Love one another. Just as I have loved you” (AMPC). God is Love, and we know Love is what’s needed to change our nation!
Kenneth Copeland Ministries (KCM) and Eagle Mountain International Church (EMIC) are committed to being a “house of prayer” (Isaiah 56:7) and are honored to join people of all faiths and unite our Partners, Friends and church members on May 2 to pray for our nation to Love One Another. We will have an explosion of Corporate Prayer, as we pray for all aspects of our nation, our relationship with Israel, the seven centers of influence, as well as an Awakening to God in America and the outpouring on youth and children.

“Confess and acknowledge how you have offended one another and then pray for one another to be instantly healed, for tremendous power is released through the passionate, heartfelt prayer of a godly believer! –James 5:16 (TPT).
How to Pray for America to Love One Another
1. PRAY FOR AMERICA TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER.
“Love one another. Just as I have loved you….” John 13:34 (CSV)
- Jesus tells us to love one another just like He loves us. This includes every person in America as well as every person in the world.
- Jesus wants us to love every person sacrificially, willfully and unconditionally because this is the way He loves us.
- Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to empower us to do the things that only God can do through us. Therefore, call upon God to move in our nation miraculously, replacing hate with love, division with unity, and criticism of one another with love for one another.
2. PRAY FOR THE CHURCH IN AMERICA TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER
“By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” John 13:35 (CSV)
- Jesus is telling His disciples, His Church, that mark that sets us apart from everyone else is only one thing: love for one another.
- Appeal to God to convict each of us as His Church to turn from the way we are treating one another and turn to loving one another. If we are and divided Church, we forfeit the right an unloving and divided nation to love and to unity.
- Call upon God for the 300,000+ churches in love one another and to cooperate together when possible for purpose of praying for America.
3. PRAY FOR FAMILIES, WORKPLACES, COMMUNITIES, AND CITIES IN AMERICA TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER
“Dear friends, let us love one another, because love is from God, and everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.” 1 John 4:7 (CSB)
- When we belong to Jesus, we belong to love; therefore, call upon God for the families, workplaces, communities cities in America to know that love is always God’s way.
- Call families, workplaces, communities and cities to look to God, who is Love, so they can experience the transforming power of love.
- Ask God for America’s families, workplaces, communities, and cities to begin to choose love and forgiveness, love and restitution, love and healing, love and unity, and a future together transformed by the power of unconditional love.
- Ask God to raise up a Love One Another movement across America.
4. PRAY FOR ALL ETHNICITIES AND PEOPLE IN AMERICA TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER
“Love finds no joy in unrighteousness but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends.” 1 Corinthians 13:6-8 (CSB)
- Since God’s love is built on God’s truth and we are made in the image of God, all humans are of one race; therefore, loving one another is not optional because love never ends.
- Call upon God to bring us back to the cross of Jesus Christ, where His unconditional, powerful love has torn down all the walls that divide us and opened up a new pathway for us to love one another.
- Ask God to give us the power to repent of anything in our past and choose a new future together where love will not just our nation’s wounds, but this transforming love will lead to the justice will roll down like waters and righteousness like a .
5. PRAY WE WILL LOVE GOD AND EACH OTHER SO MUCH THAT WE WILL AGREE CLEARLY, UNITE VISIBLY AND PRAY EXTRAORDINARILY FOR THE NEXT GREAT SPIRITUAL AWAKENING IN AMERICA
“Besides this, since you know the time, it is already the hour for you to wake up from sleep, because now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed.” Romans 13:11 (CSB)
- Knowing we are living in a significant moment in history, now is the time for each follower of Christ to wake up in our spiritual lives, knowing our greatest need and hope in America is the next great spiritual awakening.
- Ask God to convict the Church in America to wake up spiritually, agree clearly, unite visibly and pray extraordinarily for the next great spiritual awakening to occur in our generation.
- Call upon the sovereign God of heaven to shape the future of America mightily through the next great spiritual awakening, just as He did in history through past Great Awakenings.
