The Nation celebrates the 75th National Day of Prayer (AUDIO)
(SRN NEWS) Speaker Mike Johnson and Housing and Urban Development Secretary Scott Turner opened the 75th National Day of Prayer Thursday morning in the U.S. Capitol, celebrating 250 years of America and all that God has blessed us with.
Johnson told the crowd gathered in Statuary Hall, “Our founders did their best to set up our nation in accordance with his guidelines and principles. And my friends, that is why God has blessed America for 250 years. He is the one that has endowed us with our inalienable rights, among those of the rights of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.”
The Day of Prayer is an annual observance held on the first Thursday of May, inviting people of all faiths to pray for the nation. It was created in 1952 by a joint resolution of the United States Congress and signed into law by President Harry S. Truman.
The annual National Day of Prayer (NDP) Broadcast is an invitation to unite in prayer, as the 2026 theme calls us to “Glorify God Among the Nations – Seeking Him in All Generations” from the theme scripture of 1 Chronicles 16:24 NASB.
NDP Task Force Kathy Branzell, along with special guests Will Graham, Dr. Rob Pacienza, Os Guinness, Rosemary Siemens and Eli Bennett, and others will take part in the NDP Broadcast from Statuary Hall in the United States Capitol at 8 p.m. ET.
Here is the 2026 National Prayer
Almighty God, King of Glory, we confess our sins and repent of our pride that
sought our own glory and comfort, allowing evil to take root instead of Your
fruit in our hearts, homes, culture, and country.
Please forgive us.
Now, with this declaration of rededication, we humble ourselves, pray, and seek Your
face, turning from our wicked ways, that You would heal our lives and our land.
Please purify and renew our hearts with holy attributes, affections, attitudes, and
actions-to love You with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength.
We give You glory as we repent and rededicate our lives and our nation to You.
For 250 years You have guarded and guided America in wisdom, grace, mercy, and love.
We praise and thank You for our Founding Fathers, for all who sought You in fervent prayer
throughout history and answered Your call to defend justice and freedom; to protect and serve,
preach and teach, innovate, communicate, learn, work, worship, and establish our laws.
May Your Kingdom come, and Your will be done in our lives, our Families, the Church, Education,
Business, Military, Government, Arts, Entertainment and Media as it is in heaven.
We prayerfully commit to “Glorify God Among the Nations, Seeking Him in All Generations.”
In Jesus’ name, Amen!
