We Come Together as a Nation to Pray
, in the Name of our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ. We pray for our family members. Wepray for our neighbors. We pray for our soldiers, and we pray for ourleaders. We pray for our Congressman & Congresswomen & for ourPresident, and for all other Representatives of our Cities, States, &Countries.
We ask, Lord, that you will give them the wisdom they need tomake the right decisions for us as a nation
. We pray that Your will mayultimately be done.And we
 pray for those less fortunate than ourselves
. Give us thegenerosity, God, to share with them.
Give us the humility, Jesus, to walk as You did,
amongst the poor, the oppressed, the afflicted, and thedowntrodden. We pray that we may share Your love, compassion, andmercy with others, Lord--in a way that reaches their true needs.

 He has shown you, O man,what is good; And what does the LORD require of you But to do justly,To love mercy, And to walk humbly with your God 
?

We pray for wisdom individually and collectively
, as a nation and a world,to make the right decisions in regards to so many social issues. We pray forwisdom about the rights of the unborn child. Hear our prayer Oh Lord.We pray for discernment about the use of nuclear power. Hear our prayer,Oh Lord. We pray for prudence in the sentencing of prisoners. Help us tobe truly just, Jesus, as You would be. Help us to know with certaintywhether or not we should use Capital Punishment.
 Help us to see clearly
.And God give us the capacity mentally and physically and emotionally toknow when and where to speak out about social issues. Give us the courageto become involved according to Your will and also give us the wisdom toknow when not to get involved.
 Help us maintain a Spiritual Balance
according to Your Will, and not ours. Help us not to fool ourselves andfalsely "rationalize" our way out of doing what You called us to do.
 Be of good courage ,And  He shall strengthenyour heart  ,All you who hope
