Let us come together in prayer, seeking God's will for our nation and its leaders. We are instructed in 1 Timothy 2:1-2 (WEB) to pray "for kings and all who are in high places, that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence."
Firstly, we must clarify that our hope and trust are not placed in any human leader, but in God alone. Psalm 118:8-9 (WEB) reminds us, "It is better to take refuge in Yahweh, than to put confidence in man. It is better to take refuge in Yahweh, than to put confidence in princes."
While we can pray for Vice President Kamala Harris, we must remember that God's will is sovereign, and He appoints leaders according to His purpose. Romans 13:1 (WEB) states, "Let every soul be in subjection to the higher authorities, for there is no authority except from God, and those who exist are ordained by God."
Instead of focusing on a specific candidate, let us pray that God's will be done in the upcoming elections. We pray for a leader who will honor God, uphold biblical principles, and promote righteousness. Proverbs 29:2 (WEB) tells us, "When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; but when the wicked rule, the people groan."
Let us pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, lifting up our nation and its leaders. We pray for Vice President Kamala Harris, that she may seek Your face and be guided by Your wisdom. We ask that You raise up a godly leader who will honor You and govern according to Your principles. We trust in Your sovereignty and pray that Your will be done in the upcoming elections.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, we must address that while this request mentions "in Jesus' name," it is crucial to ensure that our prayers align with God's will and not our own desires. Our ultimate goal should be to seek God's kingdom first and His righteousness, as instructed in the scriptures.
