“Lord Jesus, we first come before You to give You thanks for our nation and for the blessings You have poured out over us. Blessings of freedom, family, faith, and much more. You are a gracious and loving God Who has poured out Your mercies time and time again and we thank You.

We lift up our state leaders today. Give them Godly wisdom to decipher what is right in Your eyes. Grant them favor, draw them close to You and impart Your wisdom on them. Provide Your peace and blessing on each person here, may they find rest in You as they work diligently for the people of this state. Bless each of them as they walk through life and encourage them by letting them remember that each one of them is being prayed for, their names being called out to the Almighty.

We are facing challenges today of division, political unrest, financial hardship and we need to be reminded that You are greater than each of them. Give the representatives and leaders here today insight into how to best lead and govern.

God, we recognize that every leader is pulled in a variety of ways, and so we ask that You keep their hearts pure. May Your voice God be louder than any other voice that they hear. We pray for our leaders to protect our freedoms so that we might live out our faith freely.

Lord, let our state government be a beacon of hope, serving to promote peace and justice. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
