Campaign 2008, Closing Comments

Tomorrow we will all be going to cast our votes for the best possible choice for President of the United States. It doesn't really matter that we will never all agree on who that is. In a recent column (Vote to ensure representative government) Ken Connor lets us know that it's being informed and casting the vote that counts. "The Founders' belief in republican democracy turned out to be well-founded. More than two centuries later, we continue to live in the freest country in the world. But that freedom is only secured by our continued right to vote, and we have a duty to exercise that right, lest we allow the tyranny of the few to hold sway over the many. As John Quincy Adams said, "Where annual elections end, there slavery begins." Elections by the populace are the surest succor for freedom."

Election of Godly Leaders

Father, I desire to vote intelligently in all elections. I pray that You will bring to light the things I need to know so I may vote in line with Your plan, will and purpose.

May things not only come to light for the Christian community, but may things be made clear to the unbelieving community as well. I pray that what is right would be so clear that even unbelievers would vote using wisdom and demanding honesty and uprightness from their politicians.

Dear Father, in the name of Jesus, may the citizens of our nation become so weary of sin and degradation in our nation's leaders that they will begin to seek out godly leaders to represent them on every level of government. Give such leaders favor with the public and the media.

Father, make our nation a fragrance in the earth, a force to be reckoned with, a hand extended to those in need.

Amen

I've heard some folks say voting is not just a right, it is our duty.Every time we vote I feel we should go to the polls thinking this is the most important vote we will ever cast.

God Bless America, God Save The Republic.

Thanks go to:
Renew America

Pray for Our Nation
