Fresh Mannaby Pastor Tim BurtA Prayer for Our Nation, the Nations, and the Electionsby Tim Burt
This morning, would you bow with me and join this prayer as you read? Heavenly Father, we come before you in prayer and intercession today, lifting up the United States of America and the nations. Dear Lord, your word teaches us that every person should submit themselves to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which you have established. We thank you for leading and guiding America's forefathers in establishing the Constitution of the United States and the laws of our land. We thank you for the right to vote for those who we elect to lead our nation. We also understand that this right is a God-given privilege that should be prayed over and guided by your Spirit. So guide us, dear Lord!
Dear Lord, not everyone believes in you. Not everyone knows you. Many will make choices for this election guided by their own heart and minds with no regard for you. We know that when Christians do not pray and seek you for guidance and help in their daily life, they can become as carnal as the world that does not know you. This was never the plan for those you call your own. Without repentance and your mercy and grace, our nation could become just like any other pagan nation. Please forgive us for our sins. Please turn us from wickedness, lawlessness, and corruption. Please deliver us from those that surround us with wickedness. Please help us elect leaders who give place to your gospel and support living our lives according to your Word. Please help each one of us to live wholeheartedly for you.Dear Lord, for the sake of all believers living in the United States of America and your gospel reaching the world, we pray that you will raise up godly and righteous men and women who have faith and who will help lead our nation in the path you created for it, and to bless Israel and this world. We pray that the prosperity of America and the influence of Christianity will ripple and flow into all the nations of the world. We pray that you will deliver this nation from wicked and evil men and women who do not have faith and who hinder the gospel of Jesus Christ. We pray that you would surround all leaders in our nation with those who do know you and walk in your godly wisdom and insight. We pray that those who don't know you will embrace and walk in the counsel and help that comes from those who do know and love you and walk in your ways.We also pray for all the Christians who know you but have neglected to pray for this country in the past. We pray that you would move in their hearts and instruct and strengthen their heart to participate in this election through voting and lead them as they do.Lord, we pray that the slandering and division that has overtaken our land will end following this election. We pray that all people will be treated equally under necessary law and order and that justice will be adjudicated with the mercy of God. We bind the chaos that comes from lawlessness and pray for strong laws that are enforced and help people live in greater peace and unity. We pray for a thriving body of Christ and a thriving economy that provides work and jobs for all people so that they may provide for their families and contribute to our society's workforce, welfare, and peace.Lord, You said, "Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord." We pray that the United States of America, along with many nations throughout the world, pray and put you on the throne of their hearts! We pray for a revival amongst the people of this nation and all nations. We pray that your Word will tear down all forms of ungodliness in the hearts of those who love you and reach those who don't. We pray that revival would turn the hearts of the fathers to their children and the hearts of the children to their fathers. We pray that your word will be learned, known, lived, and taught by parents to their children and to their children's children.Finally, Lord, we pray that you would bless, give wisdom and guidance, and strengthen the military of the United States of America and the governing bodies that enforce the laws of our land so that they would succeed in protecting our nation under your divine protection!Have mercy on us, dear Lord, we pray!
