Revival Nashville is calling on Christians across America to join the historic “Great American Prayer” event on Monday, Nov. 4, 2024, at 6 PM. The event invites Americans from all 50 states to hold simultaneous prayer meetings the day before election day to seek the Lord’s guidance and provision for our nation.
The G.A.P. event is being held as an opportunity for Christians to pray for God “to Save America,” “turn the hearts of Americans back to Jesus and the Bible” and to “send revival all across the USA.”
Hope Hines, who serves as the National Director of the event, is an Emmy Award winning broadcaster, the recipient of the Silver Circle Award by the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, and was inducted into the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame in 2014. He also has three children and seven grandchildren.
“It’s thrilling!” Hines said about the event. “It’s never been done before! It could change America!”
A press release from the event states,
Revival Nashville calls upon churches and communities across the country to come together in prayer, asking God to save our country, unify our people, and heal our land. Each state is encouraged to organize its own prayer meetings, creating a powerful wave of prayer that will begin on the East Coast and roll across the nation to the West Coast.

You should especially consider joining the event if you are one of the millions of Americans worried the upcoming election and about the direction our country is heading.
A recent poll from Gallup found 76% of Americans are dissatisfied with the way things are heading in the United States, with 51% of Americans saying they’re “very dissatisfied.”

Certainly, voting is one way Americans can make their voices heard and help guide our nation in the right direction. However, Americans’ opportunities to vote are limited to election days (or the weeks preceding).
Prayer is something Americans can do daily. As the Apostle Paul wrote in his letter to Timothy,
“First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way” (1 Timothy 2:1-2, ESV).
G.A.P. encourages all Christians in America to “embark on this transformative journey of prayer for our nation. Together, let us raise our voices in hope and faith, believing in the power of prayer to effect change.”
