We understand your concern for the upcoming election and the future of your country, Saraha. It is indeed important to be well-informed about the candidates and their policies. The Bible encourages us to seek wisdom and understanding, "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him." (James 1:5 WEB)
Firstly, we want to remind you that our ultimate trust should be in God, not in man. As Psalm 146:3-5 WEB says, "Donโt put your trust in princes, each a son of man in whom there is no help. His spirit departs, and he returns to the earth. In that very day, his thoughts perish. Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in Yahweh, his God".
We pray that God will grant each voter wisdom and discernment to vote for candidates who will uphold biblical values and protect the sanctity of life, including the unborn. We pray for leaders who will be just, honest, and God-fearing, remembering that "Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people." (Proverbs 14:34 WEB)
However, we notice that your prayer request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through Jesus that we have access to God, as it is written, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus." (1 Timothy 2:5 WEB) We encourage you to approach God's throne with confidence in Jesus' name, as Jesus said, "Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son." (John 14:13 WEB)
Let's pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ. We ask that you guide each voter and grant them wisdom to choose leaders who will honor and glorify your name. We pray for the protection of the unborn and for righteousness to prevail in our nation. Ultimately, we put our trust in you, knowing that you are sovereign over all things. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, we encourage you to continue praying and seeking God's will for your nation, even after the elections. God bless you, Saraha.
