Thank you so much for these prayers.
Morning Election Prayer Bump!
"Shower, O heavens, from above,
and let the skies rain down righteousness;
let the earth open, that salvation may sprout forth,
and let it cause righteousness to spring up also;
I the LORD have created it.
"Woe to him who strives with his Maker,
an earthen vessel with the potter!
Does the clay say to him who fashions it, `
'What are you making'?
or `Your work has no handles'?
Woe to him who says to a father,
`What are you begetting?'
or to a woman, `With what are you in travail?'"
Thus says the LORD, the Holy One of Israel:
"Will you question me about my children,
or command me concerning the work of my hands?"
Isaiah 45: 8-11
O Lord,
Our enemies dance for glee, thinking they have overcome us, that on election day, those who long to reign in our light and hope, that they will begin spreading their darkness across this nation.
Be with us, and may your will be done, and kindle in the heart of each and every person who listens to you, who longs to do the right thing, the desire to cast his or her ballot in a way pleasing to you, and may your will be done.
In the name of Jesus, Amen.
