Day 5 - Prayer for America

9. Pray for the leaders, churches, and Christians of Connecticut and Delaware.

10. Pray for those who serve as police officers, prosecutors, defenders, judges, and Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court, that they would be vigilant in service and wise in judgement.


My Prayer:

Oh Father God,

You are the light and salt of the earth. Your salt...it makes us thirsty and makes us want MORE of what You can give...it adds flavor to an otherwise dull life...it keeps us coming back for more of You. Your light...it shines and guides...the beacon in the ultimate darkness, God. Thank You for these wonderful and amazing gifts. God, I pray that You be with the leaders of Connecticut and Delaware. As election time gets closer, every state leader must be convicted to do what is right, not only for the state, but for Your glory. Give each state leader discernment to do what is loving and right in Your eyes, Heavenly Father. Help the churches and Christians to reach out to those who may doubt You or Your existence...let them be the beacon...the light of Your love shining through them to guide and attract...let them be the salt that makes everyone crave to be more like You.

Protect our law enforcement...help them to do what is right and avoid what is wrong. Give them strength and guidance. Keep them safe, Lord. Use them in whatever way You would have them be used to help, not harm. Give the prosecutors, defenders and judges the proper discernment to do what is right and help make this country a righteous place.

In your name I pray.
