I was doing search for prayer threads on the election. Let me add this personal request up top:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Please pray for the safety and well being of our friends and family members who are poll workers, elections boards, poll watchers -- especially in battleground states (and, personally, especially in Florida and Ohio...).

They are hard working, honest people. Yet they have fingers pointed in their faces, outsiders milling in the polling areas questioning every thing they do, EVERY provisional ballot, and legions of lawyers on hand -- all of which, I submit, is designed to intentionally creat chaos and confusion.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thank you so much for your prayers -- which in effect are prayers for the peace of mind for those of us who know and love the above folks .... and are in anguish over what we see happening in our own communities.

Heavenly Father, we return to give You praise that by the Power of the Holy Spirit, You have marked our hearts with knowledge that a spiritual battle rages over the soul of our beloved country. The forces of hell have gathered against our nation, and they plainly speak of their desire that our Godly President be defeated. We are the arms that lift him up at this time, O God ... we are the voice of supplication ... we are the righteous indignation that only lies come from the candidate's camp. May the heavens resound with the cries of Your children worldwide, as we seek the defeat of those who would enslave us. Give ear to our pleas, Merciful Father, and again raise up President Bush as Your under shepherd, for great is his love for You ... great is his desire that all mankind know You ... great is his love for each precious soul. Do not withdraw Your favor from us, O Lord, but restore unto us the joy of righteous leadership through George W. Bush. May it be thus, Sovereign Lord, may it be thus, in the Name of Jesus, I pray, Amen ...
