Did you know that under NYC's new mayor, Zohran Mamdani—the city's first Muslim leader—the 5x daily Adhan (Muslim call to prayer) is now authorized to echo through the streets of New York? This expands on previous policies, allowing broadcasts every day, from dawn to night.
What started as Friday-only under Adams is now a full daily ritual, voted in by the majority of New Yorkers who backed this administration.
But here's a thought: If public expressions of faith are the new norm in one of America's most diverse cities, why not balance the scales? I challenge Christians and Jews—especially in areas where Islamic influence is strong—to organize our own daily public prayer vigils. Let's unite in prayer to the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—the same God Christians know as Jesus Christ. Push back against division and reclaim the light in our shared spaces.
This isn't about confrontation; it's about equality and spiritual resilience. The gauntlet is down—will we pick it up? Let's make it happen peacefully, powerfully, and publicly. Who's with me?

Greetings 👋
God is on the move in prayer groups across America. Let revival and unity of purpose unite and empower us.
“I will praise the Lord at all times. I will constantly speak his praises.
I will boast only in the Lord; let all who are helpless take heart.
Come, let us tell of the Lord’s greatness; let us exalt his name together.
I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me. He freed me from all my fears.
Those who look to him for help will be radiant with joy; no shadow of shame will darken their faces.
In my desperation I prayed, and the Lord listened; he saved me from all my troubles.
For the angel of the Lord is a guard;
he surrounds and defends all who fear him.”
Psalm 34: 1-7 (NLT).

Here’s my prayer for today.
“Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in your law.”
Psalm 119: 18 (NIV).
‼️Below are the verses the Lord gave me today.
What can you glean from these verses ? Do they speak to your heart or situation?
“Hear me, my God, as I voice my complaint; protect my life from the threat of the enemy.
Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, from the plots of evildoers.
They sharpen their tongues like swords and aim cruel words like deadly arrows.
They shoot from ambush at the innocent; they shoot suddenly, without fear.
They encourage each other in evil plans, they talk about hiding their snares; they say, “Who will see it?”
They plot injustice and say, “We have devised a perfect plan!” Surely the human mind and heart are cunning.
But God will shoot them with his arrows; they will suddenly be struck down.
He will turn their own tongues against them and bring them to ruin; all who see them will shake their heads in scorn.
All people will fear; they will proclaim the works of God and ponder what he has done.
The righteous will rejoice in the Lord and take refuge...
