Pray For Our Leaders
This is a presidential election year. A crucial time in our nation that happens every four years. Choosing a president for the next 4 years is not a task that should be taken lightly, especially in the times we are living in. There are key issues to be considered, at home and abroad. We in Maryland go to the polls this Tuesday to vote in the primary. Others around the nation have already been or will soon go. Make the effort to vote, both in the primary and general election on November 4th.
Scripture tells us in I Timothy, chapter 2, verses 1 & 2, to pray for our leaders. “First of all, then, I admonish and urge that petitions, prayer, and intercessions, and thanksgivings be offered on behalf of all men, for kings and all who are in positions of authority or high responsibility…” I Timothy 2:1-2 the Everyday Life Bible.
If we are to enjoy the blessings of good government, we must commit to pray for our government officials at all levels.
A Prayer for Presidential Selection: Father, we thank you for the freedom to worship You in this great nation You have allowed us to live in. We pray that You will continue to bless the United States of America. As we go through the process of freedom to vote for a new president of our nation, we pray that the person selected will be a person of strong character, constantly seeking Your truth and guidance, always displaying courage and integrity, a person of insight and discernment who adores wisdom and understanding. We thank You for granting this our request that we pray in Jesus name. Amen.
God Grant us wisdom and understanding!
