 40 Days to Save America

Day 9

Holy Father, we praise You for the blessings we share as citizens of the United States. Thank You for providing us with all that we need and more.

We pray for our leaders. We ask that You give them wisdom and understanding. May the deliberations and decisions of government reflect what is holy and good in Your sight.

L-rd, we ask for wisdom and guidance as we vote to select our leaders in the upcoming election. We take the stewardship responsibilities You've given to us seriously. We seek to vote for leaders who will be Your agents on earth and will conduct the affairs of state in a manner that gives glory to You.

Thank You for Your love and support. May all that we do and say be a blessing to You and our nation. In Yeshua' name, Amen.
