Dear precious friends, The election is upon us. As goes the election, so goes the USA. Please pray each day on here until it is a done deal. DEAR SOVEREIGN LORD, I lift up the election to you and all about it. I place in simply, in Your Hands. Lord, let Your will be done, in the USA as it is in heaven. Jesus, whisper in our ears. Show us the Truth, Holy Spirit. All truth, as Jesus promised. Lead us and guide us, and all of our fellow citizens. Let us not be naive. Let us value what YOU, alone, value. Be our guide. Be our conscience. Be our focus. Show us our vote, and our heart, and our path in this election. Let us not be weary of the fight, as I often feel these days. Help us register, and PRAY, and vote. In Jesus name, I do pray. Love to all who pray with me for this, and all those times you pray with me. pw nan

Father, Thank you that we can come to you for guidance and direction. Please guide each voter and help each voter to yield to you and to vote as you see best. Please provide a President that will help this country, a President that will yield to you instead of pushing his own agenda. Protect voters as they go to the polls and cause the election process to go smoothly. We pray this in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Father, I am growing weary of the constant accusations back and forth, and now we hear about voter fraud. There is so much in the political world that turns my stomach, and yet we are told in Your Word to pray for our leaders. Therefore, in faith, I am asking that Your will be done in this election. I pray that men and women elected to office will get on their knees in prayer to You FIRST before doing a press conference. I pray that they will speak to You in the night hours. I pray that they will seek to do Your will at all times instead of checking the polls to see what is politically expedient. Lord, America is at a crossroad. It cannot continue as it is. I pray that our leaders will turn back to You as their guiding light and will remember that the founding fathers based their judgments on Your Word. I am afraid that You will soon remove your hand of protection from our land, and I ask that you delay that removal. Oh, Lord, I earnestly pray that this election will be turning point for America. Help us all to get on our knees to pray and seek Your face and turn from our wicked ways. Help us to cleanse our nation of all of those things that are an abomination to You. Forgive us for our sins. Forgive ME for my sins. Heal America. Father, please, help us remain a "nation under God". In Jesus name I ask all these things, Amen.

Yes Lord. I pray for our leaders that they will turn from their wicked ways and seek your face. Continue to expose those that are greedy and corrupt. Turn their hearts to you. Let them be concerned about the needs of the people and what's best for the country. Lord remove any selfishness or pride they may have. Lord let Your perfect will be done in earth as it is in heaven. In Jesus Name, Amen.

Lord, we fall before acknowledging what a selfish and sinful nation we have been. We beg for Your mercy, that You will give us what we need in office, not what we deserve. There is no politican or campaign that is more powerful than You. Help us to reveiw all ascepts of the election and under that Your standards don't change at election time or any other time. Help us as Christians to realize that our first alleigance should belong to You, regardless of our denomination, race, financial status, if we put You first, all other things will be handled as they should be. Help us to realize the responsibility of every American is to vote. Help us to know that the politicans are in contol, the poll makers are not in control, the media is not in control but rather YOU are in control and we are to put our faith and trust in YOU! We thank You for the grace You have shown our country so far and pray that You will continue to extend grace and mercy. We thank You for all You do, in Jesus name. Amen

Think of abortion alone, partial birth abortion, no help for poor babies that accidentally survive. All according to Obama's plan. How Horrible!!!! For me, there is only one choice, because I love God and follow Him, hook line and sinker. You can't follow God part way, or have part faith. It is all or nothing, and so must what we stand for be.

I don't think we know how far we have spiraled down in America in 200+ short years. We are no different than Israel, and God took away their blessings time and time again. We are NOT immune. We are NOT self-made. Dear God, PLEASE bless this election in spite of our horrible new trends of sin and I have to say it, pure ugliness and lack of morality. Oh God, save your people and your remnant in America. H E L P, God. Thank you JESUS. H E L P in this election.

FROM DUTCH SHEETS, a wonderful GODLY world known prayer intercessor: >October 20, 2008 > >Dear Praying Friend, > >In 2000, I wrote the 2nd most important letter of my life-a call to prayer for the elections of that year. I'm now writing what may be my most important letter. I knew the importance of those elections in 2000 was beyond any in my life up to that point and that the spiritual warfare surrounding them would be unlike anything any of us had ever seen. That letter was read by millions of people and I believe millions of them responded by praying. I also believe the prayers turned the tide. > >You may question whether President Bush was the right choice; obviously, he has made some blunders in his tenure as president. But two of his decisions alone left no doubt he was God's choice: Roberts and Alito. These two Supreme Court Justices have proven critical in the process of breaking the hold of humanism, death and anti-God agendas that have ruled the Court for 50 years. I assure you that more devastation-the shedding of innocent blood, immorality, decay of the family and an erosion of our godly heritage-has flowed into our nation through that institution than any other door in America. The poison allowed into America through their decisions is beyond any of our abilities to articulate. > >The reality in America is that you don't need to control Congress or the White Hose to rule the nation. You only need 5 people - 5 out of 9 on the Supreme Court. And for decades those who disagree with just about everything you and I stand for have been in control! > >In Bush's two terms, the process of turning this around began with the appointments of Roberts and Alito. Now, we win some cases 5-4 and lose some 4-5. (We barely outlawed partial birth abortion. The vote of one judge saved thousands of babies from this horror.) We need one more conservative Justice for a consistent majority, then more to build a strong major majority. > >In Obama's own words, "the next president will appoint at least one, perhaps two or more Supreme Court Justices." He's right. Almost certainly two or more older, liberal Justices are waiting until after the elections to retire, in hopes of Obama winning and appointing more liberals to replace them. And he certainly would. He voted against the confirmation of Roberts and Alito. So did Biden. And Biden led the fight against Justice Thomas several years back, another of the 4 solid conservatives. Make no mistake about it, the two of them do have a litmus test for Supreme Court Justices, and a major part of that test is Roe vs. Wade. McCain and Palin, on the other hand, both have very strong pro-life positions. This alone makes the choice for President simple. To vote for the 2nd and 3rd most liberal senators (Obama and Biden), both of whom are firmly and blatantly pro- abortion, would be unconscionable. Obama has actually said that if he wins, he would like his first action as president to be the signing of the Freedom of Choice Act, which would eliminate every other law against any aspect of abortion (partial birth abortion, parental notification, etc., etc.). And with a democratic majority in the House and Senate, pretty much any legislation he and Biden want to pass will be a slam-dunk. There are many other unrighteous positions they hold but this position alone makes the choice easy. If they win this election, it will set America back decades in the cause of life and the restoration we seek. > >Just as many of you do, I too, want to see a first black President, but not Senator Obama. To allow that noble and godly desire, the economy or one's position on the war to trump this issue of life and death for the innocent unborn is simply wrong. The scriptures teach that if we choose first to exalt righteousness and turn from evil, God promises to heal our land (see Proverbs 14:34; 2 Chronicles 7:14). It is righteousness that exalts a nation, not wealth, prosperity or armies. If we will finish the process of removing the curses of death and anti-God laws off of America by electing a president that will continue to shift the Court, God will grace us with breakthrough in other areas such as the economy, the war against terrorism, etc. My faith is not in a person, and certainly not a political party, for the healing of America, but I know God's word and His ways well enough to know that our decisions do move Him to action or inaction. > >Now to the heart of my reason for writing this letter (I realize I am "preaching to the choir"-most of you who know or listen to me are conservative enough to vote for McCain and Palin.) I have not written any appeals for prayer concerning this election because: > > 1.. Others have, and > 1.. I believe our movement has matured to the point that the prayer base of the Church is already praying. >But I now feel the need to raise my voice. I am appealing to you to pray for these elections the next two weeks like you've never prayed for any in the past. Faithfully. Passionately. Boldly. Ask God for His mercy and grace. We deserve His judgment for removing His influence and authority from our government, schools, homes and businesses; for the killing of 50 million babies; for leading the world in the consumption and exporting of pornography; for passing laws to reject His; etc. But mercy triumphs over judgment and in His wrath He remembers mercy. In 2000 we actually lost the popular vote and won the election-talk about grace! Please pray for this grace to be released again. > >But I am also asking you for something more than normal prayer. For those of you who understand spiritual warfare, I am asking you to also include this aspect of prayer. There is no doubt that we have entered a Daniel 10 moment in time: "Then he said to me, 'Do not be afraid, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart on understanding this and on humbling yourself before your God, your words were heard, I have come in response to your words. But the prince of the kingdom of Persia was withstanding me for twenty-one days; then behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left there with the kings of Persia'" (Daniel 10: 12-13 NAS). The spiritual warfare in this election is incredibly fierce, and just as it was in Daniel's day, is all about the restoration of a nation. And also like Daniel, we must keep praying until we win the battle in the heavens. > >In August of this year I predicted that September would mark a shift in momentum for these elections. This happened with the appointment of Sarah Palin as the Vice Presidential nominee (who is a true Esther in our generation), but when the economy began its meltdown and the media ramped up their unprecedented attacks on Palin, that momentum wasn't sustained. But we can see it turn again if we approach this battle as the spiritual warfare it truly is and bind the evil forces involved (see Matthew 16:18-19). The reality is that this election can be the breakthrough we need to fully shift the Court (and ultimately our nation) or it will be an immeasurable setback that could take many years to reverse-if ever. > >Please understand what I am saying: if we engage in this battle and do what I am asking-in mass-we will win; if we do not, we will lose. I, for one, don't intend to allow the latter. I am in Washington, D.C. now (October 20-22) with Lou Engle and a team of prayer leaders from around the nation > >to war for this election. Join us! Lose some sleep, miss some meals- pray! Pray like never before for these elections. And as you do, involve yourself not only in petitioning prayer but also in spiritual warfare. Use your God-given authority over the plans and strategies of satan's kingdom. Bind all witchcraft that is working to control the outcome, including occultic powers that are suppressing truth. Release Christ's Kingdom rule in every way the Holy Spirit leads you. > >Don't be deceived and don't lose hope (if you have to, turn off the TV.) It is not too late to turn these elections. God is plenty powerful enough to do so. The real question is will we rise to the level of prayer and spiritual warfare necessary to release that power. And remember, we don't need a majority of Christians who are willing and able to do this-only a praying remnant. We can do it! > >Here are some practical suggestions to consider: > > 1.. Fast (a meal a day; a day a week; a Daniel fast; 3 days; 10 days; TV; etc.) and spend the time praying. > 2.. 2) Agree in prayer with someone everyday for God's will to be done. > 3.. 3) Form/participate in prayer groups regularly. Churches could pray everyday. > 4.. 4) Take time in every gathering to pray. (Take 15 minutes in every service to pray for the elections. Turn an entire service to harp and bowl style intercession-worship and prayer combined.) > 5.. 5) Join 2 or more on a conference call and pray for 15, 20, or 30 minutes. > 6.. 6) Pray on the way to work (and on the way home). > 7.. 7) Pray before you go to sleep. > 8.. 8) Pray before church services. > 9.. 9) Ask God to give you His strategy-He will! >In His grip, > >Dutch Sheets
