Powers of darkness have been unleashed as never before in an effort to subdue America in this season, but if the Church fasts and prays God has promised to intervene.
2 Chron. 7:14
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.
Almighty God,
We need You now more than ever before. We are weak, and we can do nothing without You. Our nation has turned away from your precepts. We are no longer a nation UNDER GOD. We are wicked and have accepted evil and called it good. Surely, we are in the last days. How can You continue to strive with a nation that murders babies and changes the laws to honor homosexual marriage and where pornography has leached its way into so many homes and lives.
Lord, I wouldn't blame you if you spit us out of Your mouth and turned Your back on us. But Your Word says that if Your people will humble themselves and pray and confess our sin and TURN FROM OUR WICKED WAYS, You will hear our prayer and heal our land.
I pray that You will touch every person's heart and call them to You and help them to understand that Christians can change the outcome of this election. Remove the scales from the eyes of the unsaved so that even as they move into the voting booth, they will vote for Your choice and turn to you for salvation.
I pray the great delusion that has fallen over even some of Your own children will be removed. Please Father, do not turn us over to our wicked delusions. Bring clarity to us and help us follow Your Perfect Will.
Help us to admit our sins against You, Mighty King, and ask for cleansing.
Help us to admit our failures in not carrying out Your mission.
Help us to turn to You and only You for our answers.
Help us to seek Your face constantly and to pray ceaselessly.
I confess MY sins and MY failures in not following Your will. Cleanse me and create in me a desire for YOU that surpasses all else.
Father, have mercy on this nation and on us, Your children.
Hear our prayer.
Forgive us our sins.
Heal our land.
As always I ask these things in the name of your Son, my Savior, Jesus Christ,
Amen.

Lord, first of all let us each recognize that we have sinned and we must repent of our sin before asking Your blessings on this land. Let the power of conviction fall on our hearts and may we be reminded of where You have brought us from.
God we beg for Your mercy on our land, awaken Christians and others in this country to the true fight between wrong and right that is at war here. Help us to know Your will and quit listening to all the clamoring around us. Confusion is not from You, we claim calmness and understanding in Jesus name. Amen

Amen! Joining you in prayer concerning this.
I know several who have been blinded.
Even so, Come Quickly Lord Jesus!
Mark 13:7-10 “For nation will rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; there will be earthquakes in various places; there will also be famines. These things are merely the beginning of birth pangs. But be on your guard; for they will deliver you to the courts, and you will be flogged in the synagogues, and you will stand before governors and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them. The gospel must first be preached to all the nations.”

There is a clash between two kingdoms occurring at this time. We are instructed to “Stand in the evil day” (Ephesians 6:13).
Demonic voices will arise to deceive us and lead us into captivity. It is time to stand strong.
Ephesians 6:12
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
1 Corinthians 15:57
But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Father,
We already have victory through Jesus and I thank you for that.
But we on this earth still have to fight the battle even knowing the ultimate outcome.
There is a great deception covering our land which seeks to bring satan's minions into power during this election.
So many people, even Christians, have become blinded so that they cannot see Your truth or hear Your voice.
Lord, lead each one of us to get on our knees before you to confess our sins and ask for forgiveness.
Help Your people who are called by Your name to turn from their wicked ways.
Help ME to turn from MY sins and be cleansed by your grace and mercy. Forgive me, O Lord, for all of my failures.
Then, Father, please hear our prayer and heal our land and give us victory over satan during this election season.
I stand before the Throne of Grace and plead the blood of Jesus,
And it is in His Holy and Precious name I pray,
Amen.

Lord, I pray, too, for this great nation. How long must we struggle with an unjust war that was merely for greed and profit? How long must we face the adversity of people being held in check by fear, while evil men run our nation like swine and bathe in their own filth? Lord, how long before we are again allowed to prosper? How long before your people are no longer deceived by people who will lie about issues and keep us in the dark, while we are pillaged? How long before people who say that they are for "life" stop promoting the deaths of others, all while failing to protect the very lives that they supposedly wish to save? How long before we see clearly and are given a true, Christian leader who will work for the betterment of America, rather than just for small factions with special interests? How long before someone fights to heal our nation, rather than continue to allow two sides to blindly pull us apart at the seems?
God, I pray to you... allow the appointment of the better man for handling the real tasks at hand, be that John McCain or Barack Obama. Let them be guided by your hand to restore peace, liberty, freedom, financial stability, and unity to this great nation of our's.
Let the voters not be swayed by men who put their party first and preach from a pulpit into radio microphones or television cameras for their own financial gain and mislead others with lies and falsehoods. Instead, let us be swayed by our hearts, and let our hearts be influenced by you. With that in mind, and once the voting is done, whoever is elected, please let the healing of this nation begin so that all may live in peace and unity under you. I pray this in the name of Jesus Christ, Our Faithful Lord and Savior.
Amen.
