And National Prayer Day Chairman Anne Graham Lotz shared with CBN News about her prayer for the president, and about this year's theme: "For Your Great Name's Sake! Hear us, Forgive us, Heal us!"

"So I just took Daniel chapter 9 verse 19, and the theme is for the glory of His great name that He would hear our prayer, that He would forgive our sin, that He would heal our land," she said.

Anne Graham Lotz is a leading American Christian evangelist and the daughter of evangelist Billy Graham.

She sat down with CBN to talk about the biggest issues facing our nation that we need to focus prayers on.

"I think the greatest issue is the moral and spiritual bankruptcy in our nation. The abandonment of godly principles, the abandonment of God's Word—that's the most distressing," said Graham Lotz.

She even had a message for America's Commander in Chief.

"I pray that President Trump would turn to God, that in his heart he would look to God in prayer," said Graham Lotz.

Conservative leaders have been invited to the White House Thursday, where reports indicate President Trump will sign a religious freedom executive order.

"For people who have troubled hearts there is hope for the future and it's found in Jesus Christ," said Graham Lotz.

The National Day of Prayer was created in 1952 by a joint resolution by Congress and signed into law by President Harry S. Truman. The mission of the National Day of Prayer Task Force is to "mobilize prayer in America and to encourage personal repentance and righteousness in the culture."
