1 Thessalonians 4:15-18
For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
2 Timothy 4:7-8
For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing .

He thanked everyone for attending and the organizers—specifically American Family Association head Don Wildom—for putting on the rally, which they estimate drew 30,000 people to the stadium and 100,000 to The Response site to watch online.
“This is a day that people are going to discuss for years to come,” the governor said. “My hope is that it will begin the renewal of our nation. I sincerely pray that our willingness to stand in the public square to acknowledge the God who made us will inspire others to open their minds and their hearts.”
“As we go out of this place, I hope you continue to pray for our nation and our leaders… that God will pour out his wisdom to them,” Perry said. “I want to take a special moment and ask you to pray for our military and our familily, especially and specifically the loved ones and the warrior brothers of those special forces lost in Afghanistan yesterday. Lift them up in our prayers.”
In closing, he said, “God bless you and through you,
may God continue to bless this great nation that we love.”
