I've been praying but now must overcome my own fears and lack of faith in God's will being done. (After all, worry is classic symptom of lack of faith.)

I saw Talent and Snow last night and told them I was praying for both of them. I told Tony Snow how grateful I was that his health was restored and thanked him for taking this tough job at the White House. He said, "The most important thing is that you're praying." When I said to Talent, "God bless you," he said, "He always does."

This thing is still winnable, but only through the power of prayer.

Father, Please touch the hearts that are hardened and lift the spirits of those who are discouraged. Help righteous voters realize that they can make the difference in seeing Your Will be done. Please give them the strength and courrage to be the best citizens they can be next Tuesday and vote for candidates who recognize You as the source of all that is good. Democracy is inspired by Your Greatness. May we honor You with our actions next Tuesday, and every day. In Jesus name, Amen.

A few years back I met President Bush. I could hear people encouraging him on as he quickly walked the rope lines. I told him I was praying for him. He stopped held both my hands, looked me square in the eyes and told me thank you, and that he and everyone in DC really needed prayers. He spoke with me for over a minute & and all I could remember he said was pray for us. I was a little overwhelmed with bright cameras around us and the mics they held above our head.(It was definitely not a private conversation. But, God made sure I remembered the purpose of being able to meet him in the first place. I was called to pray for him. We all are, but I felt like I got a personal invitation. You did too at a very crucial moment in time.

Father I lift us President Bush and all of our leaders down to the city level. Watch over and protect them. Give them all wisdom, knowledge, discernment & understand. Those who slander and lie about the innocent people, I pray You reveal to ALL their lies & close their mouths. Give President Bush words, Your words to move the hearts and minds of those who hear him to not just fear you, love you, but also to OBEY you. Keep him close to your word and heart.

Lord, I also lift up Jim Talent, George Allen, Michael Steele, Mike DeWine, Pete Ricketts, Bob Corker & all other pro-life, pro-family candidates. You are the God of miracles, and we ask for many now. Father, we know we have sinned in this country, but we ask for forgiveness and for favor. Please do not put people in leadership who will try to make sin into laws. Help us to fast and pray for this election and prepare us for the next.

We thank You that You hear our prayers and care.

In Jesus name we pray

Amen.
