Intercessors For America is an organization praying for America. The image is the Tytler Cycle.The Tytler Cycle was created by Alexander Tytler (d. 1813) who surmised that the average system of liberty, or democracy, lasts between 200 and 250 years. Last September we celebrated the 234th anniversary of the U.S. Constitution, and last July we celebrated the 245th year of the Declaration of Independence. If Tytler was correct, we are nearing the end of our cycle.
According to Tytler, all systems begin in bondage. But, from bondage, the people cry out to God. It's like the old saying goes, "There are no atheists in foxholes."
