Gov. Rick Perry Continues With Prayer Event Plans, Says He Wants ‘God’s Will to Be Done’

Gov. Rick Perry Continues With Prayer Event Plans, Says He Wants Gods Will to Be Done A group of Texas atheists may be suing to stop Gov. Rick Perry’s involvement in “The Response,” an upcoming day of prayer and fasting, but their efforts have done little to shake the Republican politician’s faith and determination. Perry is sticking by his original plans to be involved in the massive Christian event on August 6 at Houston’s Reliant Stadium. On Thursday, he appeared on “Today’s Issues,” a program on the American Family Radio Network, to reiterate the gathering’s spiritual importance.

According to CBN News’ The Brody Report, Perry told hosts Tony Perkins and Tim Wildmon that the prayer event will be about asking God to forgive all of us “for the sins that we have committed.” When asked what he wants the event to accomplish, he says he wants “God’s will to be done.”

Perry‘s statements don’t just apply to the general public; he believes they apply to him as well, explaining that he wants, “God helping me, guiding me, giving me direction.” Below, listen to the complete interview:

Reaction to Perry’s involvement in the event has been diverse. On the Houston Press’ web site, one commenter wrote:

…the state is sanctioning something entirely defenseless: talking to imaginary beings, hoping that they might hear your thoughts and then take action to help you. It’s primitive, and has no place in a modern world.

What if he were to declare “Texas’ Imaginary Friend Day”, and play up the idea that we all have an imaginary friend and that it’s ok to talk about him and talk to him.

While skeptics will surely find offense in the event, evangelicals will likely welcome it. Below, find Perry’s official endorsement of “The Response”:

Perry is an unabashed conservative who very clearly has no problem being public about his faith. His endorsement of a Christian prayer event, in itself, is certainly newsworthy (especially considering the response). But, bigger questions surround the governor’s possible intention to throw his hat into the 2012 presidential race. Politico sheds further light on his potential candidacy and his related comments about the role of faith in his political career:

We noted a Houston Chronicle report yesterday that Rick Perry told business leaders in May that he believed that he’d been placed in the governor’s office “in this place at this time to do [God’s] will.”

…Just a few days ago, Perry suggested on the Salem Radio Network’s “Janet Mefferd Show” that the grassroots interest in him as a presidential candidate might be a sign of something bigger.

“It’s been an incredible outpouring,” Perry said. “And I can tell you that has given me the calmness in my soul that, you know, God sends messages through a lot of ways and through a lot of messengers.”

While Perry seems to believe his decision should be based on God’s direction, there are also practical concerns that govern any campaign in its infancy (i.e. does he have enough support to wage a viable run for the presidency). National Journal has more:

Speculation about Perry has been fueled by reports that the governor and [Dave] Carney, [Perry’s political strategist], have called an array of GOP officials across the country, including in the pivotal early states of Iowa and New Hampshire. Carney acknowledged the calls began in earnest after the Independence Day holiday, but he said they are a genuine attempt to gauge Perry’s level of support should he decide to run—not a thinly veiled attempt to put together a campaign…

…As a governor of the country’s second-largest state with an enviable job-creation record, he would immediately become one of the field’s strongest candidates.

Whether Perry will launch a bid for the presidency is still up in the air. If he does decided to jump into the race, though, his willingness to speak so openly about the need for faith in public life will surely make him an appealing candidate to many on the right.

      thanks! i’m a Christian and have allowed pagans (Wiccans) to pray for me when they have asked if they could pray for me for something I was dealing w/ at the time. i don’t espouse their beliefs; in fact, my beliefs are diametrically opposed. however, for me, they were showing kindness and i appreciated it.

      i appreciate it when others, who may not espouse my beliefs, give me the grace to express my beliefs. this rally doesn’t hurt anyone and actually could help. even if one doesn’t believe in God, it could cause someone attending to act and do something that could be a force for positive change. Christians would call it an act of God. Atheists may call it a positive change.

      i am tired of the bickering and atheists and other groups suing to limit religious freedom and expression and trampling over the 1st amendment. thank you for standing up and defending the 1st amendment.

      The Continental Congress issued a proclamation recommending “a day of public humiliation, fasting, and prayer” be observed on July 20, 1775. During the very first Presidential administration (George Washington’s), he issued the following: “The Honorable the Congress having recommended it to the United States to set apart Thursday the 6th of May next to be observed as a day of fasting, humiliation and prayer, to acknowledge the gracious interpositions of Providence; to deprecate [to pray or intreat that a present evil may be removed] deserved punishment for our Sins and Ingratitiude, to unitedly implore the Protection of Heaven; Success to our Arms and the Arms of our Ally: The Commander in Chief enjoins a religious observance of said day and directs the Chaplains to prepare discourses proper for the occasion; strictly forbidding all recreations and unnecessary labor.”

      Anyone who even thinks that such as thing is against the Constitution, or is somehow imposing one’s religion on another is mindless idiot. The framers of the Constitution made it clear that the government was not to have a specific religion, or “church”, as countries in Europe did at the time. There was therefore to be a separation of “church” and state (although not specifically stated that way in the Constitution). There wasn’t even the slightest notion in the minds of the founders that there should be a separation between God and state. Anyone who has even the slightest knowledge of hist

      As I was saying: Anyone with even the slightest knowledge of history is very well aware of that fact. Those who hate God and/or religion simply use the whole “separation of church and state” smoke screen to deceive people into thinking that belief in God, or mention of Him in a public place is not allowed by the Constitution. They know better. There was even a call for prayer and thanksgiving by the founders when the Constitution was completed.

      Those who pervert history to their own political advantage depend on the fact that many Americans just don’t think. They merely hold opinions; and those opinions have been given to them on television… ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN, etc… Places where the truth has long since been banned.

It is quite refreshing to have an admitted atheist state he/she is not afraid of my religious beliefs or my expressing them. While I disagree with your atheism, it is your right to believe or not believe – if life doesn’t convince you (and it should, proof is all around you), death will – your choice.

      My greatest fear is that we have become a society of crybabies When we are offended by someone or something or someone is so arrogant or ignorant of someone elses rights we immediately expect the government to create a law prohibiting or enforcing which is only in the end controlling! Nearly every ammendment (NOTICE I didn’t say every!) added to the Constitution was not added to benefit you or I it was added to give the government more authority over you and I. Obama and this progressive movement do not like the Constitution because it defends the people and protects their rights while at the same limiting the power of the government. They want the government to have more control over everything and evrybody while the framers wanted the people to govern themselves. Separation of church and state mandates that our federal government shall not impose a State religion on anyone and we as citizens are free to practice our faith without the government’s intrusion. Every (notice I said every this time!) state constitution recognizes a Creator and reliance on Divine Providence. Read them. God cannot be removed from the equation, somebody created the universe and all that is within. I choose to believe it was my God. You to choose something else. So be it. I will not shove anything down your throat (i leaves soul duty to my Father) and you do not shove it down mine. It works well that way. Peace to you all!

      As a Christian first and American second, when it comes to governing, my primary concern still is that the constitution is oberserved no matter who leads the government. Pawlenty releasing his “I’m a conservative Christian” video is off putting to me. You’re trying too hard. Sleave wearing religion, even if I’m in the same camp, strikes me as opportunistic or insincere even for Pawlenty who I feel is a decent and honorable man. With that said, I don’t have a problem with a leader promoting an event with religious underpinning that supports the general welfare. I wouldn’t be offended if an atheist called the populace to undertake voluntary initiatives to relieve social and economic problems. I wouldn’t be offended if a Jewish leader called the populace to a prayer and fasting event. IF there was a truly peaceful Islamic leader who called all faiths to the same things Gov. Perry is promoting in a day of prayer and fasting, I would participate and NOT be offended. Atheists and agnostics that are so thin skinned over people who choose to express their faith in the public square reveals intolerance and begs the question, “what are you worried about” which IMO contradicts the very essence of your belief system. I think you need to lighten up a bit and perhaps appreciate the well intention efforts of your fellow Americans, however futile you might feel they are.

Remember when Bill Clinton insisted that he was a Christian? Remeber when Bill Clinton was shown on the news carring a bible to prove he was a Christian? Perry has to appeal to us and how do you think he’s going to go about that. To LOOK like us. Check out this Bilderberg group, find out what its all about and then do the same to Rick Perry.

    Hey Texan Blazers,

    I am trying to give Gov. Perry a fair assessment but I keep coming back to one significant issue. And I am not even sure I have the facts straight on this so please help me out. A few years back I seem to recall Perry pushing a requirement for 7th grade girls to have a vaccination for HPV. As a Christian, I had a problem with making a requirement for all girls versus letting the parents decide. What came out later was that Perry was affiliated with the company (possibly even on the board) providing the vaccination. Does anyone have more information on that?

    Perry seems slick to me. I hope I’m wrong. Although, he would be better than Obama (heck, a monkey would……yeah, yeah, trolls, I’m sure that is a racist thing to say.)

      It is NOT racist to compare the Honorable Rick Perry with a monkey!

      But it does insult the primate (I meant primaRY) voters!

      LOL

      Sorry about my spelling and sentence structure I’m actually a little more educated than that (but not much more, LOL)

    Michele Bachmann really admires his “CHisss-Pooh,“ even though he means ”death” to her campaign.

    What a package Governor Rick Perry provides!

    Rick Perry is a masculine (and handsome too) replacement for Michelle and Sarah Combined!

    Except for womanly attributes (i.e., birth-giving and the intuitive sciences), Rick has it all!

    He has clearly done double the Governing experiences that both S&M have together and he has ZERO male or female sex scandals at any age! And he does not do his own Tweets!

      I and many many others have been praying daily to God,asking him to help this nation vote out Obama.and fire all of the people in his adm.Perry hasn’t been perfect but who is?,If Gov. Perry is the man that our Lord God wants in office then he will be and i will support him,This nation was not built on unbelief but rather a strong faith in God.Gov. Perry could be the answer to this nations problems

      Amen. It’s pleasing to see so many people of faith running or considering running. Plus it drives the lefties more nuts than usual. The more a candidate aligns with God the more likely that they will recieve my vote.

    For the people who oppose Perry on this issue, I propose Texas hold a special day for them…They can call it “Don’t wipe your *ss day”…so the atheists will feel they are with their own people.

      The left will probably win in stopping it, but then since Obama and the left don’t feel they have to obey the will of the people, then the prayer day should continue anyway. It will merely hasten the anarchy that is on the horizon. It is inevitable that history repeats itself.

      Rick Perry is fake and this is a just a stunt to gain faith based voters.

      Rick is part of Buildaberg. There is nothing good about Buildaberg or those who join them. 

      Beware of Rick Perry. You have been warned.
