They say there are no atheists in foxholes and prayer - no matter what the Supreme Court says - is common in public schools come test times, but it appears the prayer focus of the 2012 election is going to make those other situations look like secular events. Pictured: Anne Graham Lotz

An organization called "If My People 2012″ is coordinating dozens of prominent Christian leaders and dozens of topics of prayer for an intense campaign aimed at America's current state in the 40 days leading up to the 2012 election.
It's the second major program with a similar focus, as officials with "40 Days to Save America" not only are organizing local churches to pray for the nation, but also are coordinating fasting and action from Sept. 28 through Nov. 6.
Anne Graham Lotz is one of the key leaders behind the "If My People" campaign, and says the signs of trouble are everywhere: economic turbulence, natural disasters and a breakdown in the social fabric of the nation.
"God is trying to get our attention, and this is the time for God's people to pray," she said. "Let's see what God will do."
Other key leaders include Tony Perkins, Joel Rosenberg, Dave Butts, Kirk Cameron and Gov. Mike Huckabee.

Spokesman Greg Downey said in a report to participants and others, "We have asked 40 national leaders to take a prayer topic which will be captured on video and released on YouTube, Facebook, our mobile app, media outlets and our website to remind and encourage people to pray for that specific topic throughout the day.
"In addition to the 40 Days, we are working to provide users with easy web and mobile access to voting guides from each of the 50 states, so you really know who you are voting for on Nov. 6th," he said.
He said it obviously will require "more than a few newly elected officials to turn our country around."
But he said, "As Israel did on so many occasions and received God's blessing and forgiveness, we need to do the same as a nation. This initiative is based around God's promise found in 2 Chronicles 7:14 which states: 'If My people, who are called by My name, will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.'"
