National Gathering for Prayer and Repentance
Museum of the Bible, Washington, DC, February 5, 2025
This year the NGPR has two parts, that is, two complete separate events, in different venues, one after the other.
- Part 1: Prayer Time with Congressional Leaders – 7am – 6th floor Museum of the Bible: “The Gathering”
- Part 2: Israel Update – 10am – 5th floor Museum of the Bible: The World Stage Theatre
PART 1: 7:00 AM - Prayer Time with Congressional Leaders – 6th floor, “The Gathering”
“In November of 2022, I called Tony Perkins, and Congressman Mike Johnson, so see what their thoughts were about calling government and faith leaders together to pray for repentance. The National Gathering for Prayer and Repentance is not a prayer breakfast. This is a 'no-breakfast prayer.' The prayers are about repentance. For personal sins. For sin in the church. For America’s sins. We focus on the vertical, that is, God. We don’t applaud for people. We only applaud for God…at the end. We don’t have speeches or sermons, except designated persons to call us to serious repentance. We don’t even introduce people. The spotlight is on God. People lead in prayer. To Him. For one minute. Sincere heartfelt prayer. Intense prayer. As if the nation depends on it. Because it does.”
- Dr. Jim Garlow, Well Versed,
Co-founder of the National Gathering for Prayer and Repentance
“Our nation needs God. Now. Our Founding Fathers understood that our strength and unity were found in our commitment to Him and to His righteousness. We think America is strong, yet a long train of events reveals weakness on every front and historic level of division. We assume America will always be. It will not. 'Under God’ must become more than a part of our Pledge of Allegiance. 'In God we trust’ must be more than our national motto on our currency. America needs God. While some may refuse to accept that reality, we readily acknowledge that America truly does need God. It is for that reason that we come together at the National Gathering for Prayer and Repentance to repent of sin. We invite you to join us on February 5 in the spirit of humility, brokenness, contriteness, and repentance.”

PART 2: 10:00 AM - Israel Updates on the Red Heifer, the Third Temple,
the War and the Hostages, and the Remarkable Megiddo Mosaic
– 5th floor, World Stage Theatre
After a short intermission after the 7am-9:30am prayer time, we will move from “The Gathering” on the 6th floor to the “World Stage Theatre” on the 5th floor to focus on Israel, beginning @ 10am.
- Byron Stinson and Ytshak Mamo will give us an update on the Red Heifer, the potential of gold from Papua New Guinea for Israel’s Third Temple, and other updates.
- Aaron Lipkin will give us a stunning report about the discovery of Joshua’s Altar and the “Gilgals” (if he is able to be excused from his reservist duty in the Israeli Defense Forces).
- A Member of the Knesset may give us an update on the war and on the condition of the hostages.
- We will enjoy the premier showing of the documentary, “Megiddo Mosaic.” Some have called this “the most important discovery since the Dead Sea Scrolls.” This mosaic floor is from the oldest church ever found, from around 245 AD, only 200 years after the time of Jesus.

WHY DO WE INVITE GOVERNMENT LEADERS TO PRAY PUBLICALLY?
The prayers of the leaders of a nation are very important to God, and they will have an impact on a nation:
CAUTION: THIS IS A SOLEMN ASSEMBLY
But when prayers of leaders attempt to manipulate God (like king Balak attempted to do through the pagan prophet Balaam), then God’s judgment is deserved (Numbers 22-24).
God will not be mocked (Galatians 6:6-7); trifling with Him will not end well.
All persons – elected and otherwise – are invited. However, to the best of our ability, the only elected officials who are allowed to lead in prayer, on a mic on the platform at the National Gathering for Prayer and Repentance during Part 1 (Prayers for Repentance), are those who have come to a point when they have fully yielded their lives to God, and – and this is vital – that they vote according to the Bible. A follower of Jesus cannot (at least long term) vote for dismembering babies in the womb and for so-called same sex “marriage.” Both are totally violations of God’s sacred Word.
We ask every person who will be on the platform to prepare themselves spiritually for being in the Presence of a Holy, Righteous and Just God.

- Hezekiah prayed for delivery from Assyria and it miraculously happened (2 Kings 19:19),
- Moses interceded when the Israelites sinned against God and deserved His wrath and the Lord was merciful (Exodus 32:11-14),
- David prayed for God’s blessing on Israel and his son Solomon and the Lord did so (1 Chronicles 29:10-22), and
- Solomon prayed for wisdom to govern a great nation so that it will continue to be blessed (1 Kings 3:3-14).

I want to thank you for the Prayer and Repentance Gathering that took place in Washington, D.C. prior to the National Prayer Breakfast. I had experienced many prayer meetings in my life, but this one was exceptional. The flow of prayers, worship, and encouraging words was powerful; there was no empty spot and it was fluent the whole time. I want to thank you for putting the emphasis on repentance. I see this as a very important act in these times. We need more divine presence of the Lord in all our actions. We face challenges that cannot be overcome with our own strength. I see conflicts we cannot bring to an end because they are so complicated and generational. In these cases, only repentance and reconciliation can bring us forward. Therefore, I see repentance prayers as a prophetic and very necessary act. Thank you for your efforts.
God bless you.
