Pray that:
All believers will seriously seek God in how they vote, not just follow political parties.
That believers would not allow their hopes to be in policies or parties but in God and God alone.
That voters would be able to discern the character and intentions of candidates.
For God's presence to be at our polling places, for His divine order, protection and guidance.
That God would give us godly leaders of integrity who will govern in wisdom and righteousness.
For God to have mercy upon us and stay His hand of judgement by turning our hearts back to Him.
For pastors to have wisdom and grace to guide their people through difficult, controversial public issues.
Again, I tell you that if two of you on earsth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven. Jesus to his disciples in Matthew 18:19
If my people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. God speaks to King Solomon in 2 Chronicles 7:14
I haven't seen anything like this posted re: praying for the upcoming election. I picked this up at a recent homeschooling get-together. It's worth printing out and posting on the fridge as well as passing along to others.

Thank you annie!
It is my most sincere hope that President Bush wins this election, but as we started to approach election day and the race tightend, I started frantically praying to God that he give President Bush a victory.
I am now not certain that this is how I should use God, but rather to ask him to consider my desire and regardless of what happens, accept His will.
I have come to the realization that I have more faith in Democracy and Capitalism than I do in God. As much as I value the former, I need to work on making my faith to Him as my superior value.
This is excellent. This humbles me, for I have a tendency to just pray, "Please, God, let Bush win! Let Bush win!" Thank you for reminding me of what I should have known and should have been doing.
Prayer is continuing! Praise the Lord!
Bingo. I have found myself praying for God's will, not my own. In every way President Bush is a far superior man and leader than Kerry has ever been, but the Bible says that God lifts up leaders and takes them down. If the President loses on Tuesday, I will cry and, actually, mourn, but whatever happens will be part of His greater plan.
ChocChipCookie- wonderful post for prayer ideas! I will print this out for easy access.
EdReform, thank you for the ping.
Blessings,

If you want on/off my prayer ping list, please let me know. All requests happily honored.
If President Bush loses on Tuesday for his stand on his faith or his view on abortion, he is still the winner. Always was, always will be. God bless him.
Very nice prayer P i t w
Their side would be asking God and or Satan to create mass accidents to keep us from the polls!
The thing is ? Us republicans will still go out and vote, even if we were in a accident, rain, snow.
I pray, that there will be a LOT OF RAIN IN OHIO , PENN, CALI , FLA , so that the DEMS will have a low voter turnout.
I believe ,, that BUSH WILL TAKE CALI , if we BELIEVE IT,, IT WILL HAPPEN, LET"S GET PRAYING ON IT. BUSH TAKES CALI.
Thanks for the ping!
This is exactly what I will do as well
God Bless
please forgive me, what does P i t w mean ?
I join in your prayer!
