Pray the Vote

Way back in the early 90's, a movement called Rock the Vote was created to get young people more involved in politics using popular artists. As successful as this idea has been, here is an even better one- Pray the Vote.



No matter the outcome of today's elections, it is important to remember that God is bigger than any candidate, administration, party, or country. May we continue to pray for our Heavenly Father's mercy, wisdom, grace, provision, and blessing for the United States and the world.

"Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints." Ephesians 6:10-18
