We understand your concern for your country's government and the upcoming elections. We need to remember that God is sovereign over all nations and governments. As it says in Romans 13:1, "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."
Firstly, we must address that we should not pray for intervention against foreigners. The Bible is clear that we should show love and kindness to foreigners. As it is written in Leviticus 19:33-34, "If a stranger lives as a foreigner with you in your land, you shall not do him wrong. The stranger who lives as a foreigner with you shall be to you as the native-born among you, and you shall love him as yourself; for you lived as foreigners in the land of Egypt."
We should ask God for officials who will uphold righteousness, integrity, and the interests of all people. According to 1 Timothy 2:1-4, "I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks, be made for all men: for kings and all who are in high places; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior; who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth."
Let us pray together to God:
Almighty God, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, acknowledging that You are the Lord of all nations. We pray for the upcoming elections in this country, asking that You would raise up godly leaders who will govern with wisdom, righteousness, and compassion. We pray that these leaders will put away greed and corruption, and instead pursue the well-being of all people.
We ask, Lord, that You would watch over the citizens and protect them from unfair practices and abuse. We pray that You would guide the election process and that Your will would be done. Help us to remember that our ultimate citizenship is in heaven, and that our hope is in You, not in any earthly government.
We also pray for the foreigners in this country, that they would be treated with kindness and fairness. We ask that You would help us to love our neighbors as ourselves, no matter where they come from.
Finally Lord, we pray that you will send laborers into the harvest. The workplace and government will not change unless the hearts of individuals are changed by the gospel of Jesus Christ. We intercede on behalf of this country that you will send your Spirit to draw all men to Jesus.
We ask all this in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
