Now is the time for all men and women of goodwill to commit to praying for the president elect. God is still in control. Maybe he has humbled us. Maybe he has decided that we are too proud, too selfish, too...whatever.
Yes, it's going to be hard, but this is a good test of our character. Will we respond with hatred, bitterness, and despair, or with the eternal hope that our God is in control?
We have a choice. If you don't think that God can use a man like Obama, then your God is much too small. Remember - God's timetable, not ours.
I hope to see prayers for Obama's safety. His children don't deserve to lose their father.
May God bless us all, and GOD BLESS AMERICA.
I don’t support Muslims either.
Amen.
May the Lord bless Obama and grant him wisdom, lift the scales from his eyes on abortion.
I will pray he governs from the Center and that he will restrain the most radical of the Democrats.
I will pray that he exercises sound judgment in every decision he makes, domestic and foreign.
I will also pray that our nation's soil will be kept safe under his watch.
...But...I will also pray for GOP victory in 2010 and 2012.
There is no God. If there was, there never would have been an election between a socialist hell bent on destroying America and a Rino, hell bent on destroying the REpublican Party.
Or if there is a God, he just made the decision that man kind should go the way of the dinosaur.
God is always in control. And I still can hate Obama. We are to abhor evil. Obama is an evil man. we can pray that he changes, and if he does not, that God removes him. I will pray that he changes, or that God removes him.
You are so right. Thank you for being the first to say it.
I will pray for my family and our military. I will not pray for a man who hates America.
I will never pray for that (expletive).
He has resorted to the devil’s play, and a part of him belongs to a religion that goes against mine. I will pray for the United States of America but not that POS.
Yes, we can and should pray for Obama, that he comes to a genuine saving, personal relationship with Jesus Christ; that he seek God’s wisdom only and always; that he learn the true meaning of compassion; and that God will remove him from office in favor of a ministry somewhere else. Kenya, perhaps.
You’re absolutely right. My prayers are with him, as scared as I am. But perhaps it’s selfish of me; praying for him makes me feel less afraid.
Pray for All Men
1 Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, 2 for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.
We may not like it but we are commanded by God. If you don't agree you can take it up with Him at a later date.
What, that he bought himself an election? He's not the first to do that.
You have so many reasons to oppose his presidency, and you choose to write that?
Obama may be black, but I fear that your soul is black. May God help you.
I will pray for Obama - that God will judge between us, and treat him as he deserves.
If Obama believed in God, he wouldn’t like that prayer...
“Please Lord help Hussein guide America in your direction. And if he doesn’t, please give me the strength to oppose him.”
Well said......
No I will pray that he is utterly embarassed in November 2012.
Yeah, fine, I’ll pray for Obama, just because I know he’d hate it.
Bite me TS.
You have been bashing Palin for days now.
I don’t need you tell me to pray for Obama.
How about pray for the rest of us and what Obama is going to us.
The only prayer I will say for him is that God changes his heart. But to pray for him would be to imply I am praying for his policies and views to become law of this land. And that I will never do. I do not pray harm upon the man. But I will not pray for a man who has made war against the preborn one of his top priorities. God would never forgive me that.
