Psalm 5:4-6, 11-12

“For you are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness, Nor shall evil dwell with You.  The boastful shall not stand in Your sight; You hate all workers of iniquity, You shall destroy those who speak falsehood; the Lord abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man…But let all those rejoice who put their trust in You.  For You, O Lord, will bless the righteous; with favor You will surround him as with a shield.”

Heavenly Father,

As we prepare to select new leaders for our country, contradiction and confusion abound.  Lies and deceit are rampant in our world.  Thank you, Lord, that we can rejoice in You.  Thank You that You are our righteousness.  Thank you that You grant us wisdom, mercy, and deliverance.  Thank You that You give us discernment and moral fiber.  We pray that deception and corruption will be revealed…that workers of iniquity will be exposed and that Godly honorable leaders will find favor with You and the electorate.  We pray that our nation will hunger after Your righteousness and return to You and Godly principles.  Help those who know You (and even those who don’t) vote for leaders who stand for Life and Liberty.  Grant favor and victory to those who honor Your principles.  We pray for those candidates who honor Your truth.  We pray especially for those voters in swing states to be strong and stand for righteous leaders.  Bless our nation and deliver us from evil.

In the holy name of Jesus Christ, Amen!
