Day 15 to pray for elections, 25 to go

praying7May Your love flow through and around us.

“And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;  That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ”, Philippians 1:9-10.

O’ Dear Lord in heaven, hallowed be thy name.  You are the mighty King.  You are the master of everything.  We praise you God almighty!  We love you dear Lord.

Father, forgive us.  We have lost our way.  We have strayed from your loving arms.  Bring us back to you.  Father, we bow our heads before You and we confess that we have too often forgotten that we are Yours.  We have carried on our lives as if there was no God or some other god and we fall short of being a credible witness for You.  For these things we ask your forgiveness and we also ask for your strength.

We thank you Lord for Your everlasting love which you show regardless of our infirmities. We thank you for your blessings.

Lord today we pray for our fellow man. Father please help us all to be of strong and clear mind as we approach the election decisions.  Please help our people to recognize the right choice for our entire nation and not choose based on selfish and self-centered desires.  Allow us to see that the enemy lies just beneath the shine and polish.  We pray our people will not vote based on who looks the part, who has the most show or who is the most camera friendly.  Help us to grasp, dear Lord, that looks can be deceiving. Help our people to seek the answers dear Lord and work to understand who they are voting for. Help them to know the person and to know your desire.  Help the sheep to not go astray, O’ Great Shepherd.  Father, we all need your help in this important issue.

Lord, help us to draw on your love.  May Your love flow through and around us.  Give us clear minds and open hearts so we may witness to You in our world.  Remind us to be who You would have us to be regardless of what we are doing or who we are with. Hold us to You and build our relationship with You and with those You have given us.  Speak to our hearts and open our minds that we may see You and the light of Your glory.  Send your Holy Spirit, Father.  Cleanse us, O’Lord, that we may stand before You without blemish.  Help us as a nation to be a discerning people with moral voices to bring glory and honor to You, O’God.

We ask all these things through our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.

 

Day 13 of prayer, 27 days to election

praying-handsAnd He shall hear my voice.

Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice. (Psalm 55:17)

Father, we praise you this day. We exalt our praises and our adoration toward you Lord.  You are the graceful and merciful God Almighty.  You are the Creator of all and you are our Creator.  We give you our devotion, Lord and we give you our prayers.  We listen attentively Lord for your answers.

Lord, please forgive us for not always listening and forgive us for not giving you our consistent devotion.  Father, we are sorry that we as a nation have forgotten you.  We thank you Lord for not forgetting us.  Your love is amazing.  Your love is great.  Thank you for Your blessings on each of us and thank you for blessing our nation.  Please restore us O’ God and fill us with your spirit.  Help us in our time of need.

Dear God please direct each of our leaders as they govern our nation.  Please protect us and guide the outcome of this presidential election in November.  You are the only one to protect us, Father.  We pray for your divine intervention.

We pray this day for each of our government leaders both local and national.  We pray this day for our people.  We pray that minds would be attentive to the things of importance for our land and for the good of all mankind.  We pray for minds that would protect our heritage and our constitution.  Lord, give our nation the ability to see the splendor of Your holiness. Heal our land, O’God!  Give us all ears that will hear the majesty of Your voice.  Lead us all, and lead our nation to holy and righteous living.

In Jesus name we pray, Amen.
