On Earth

On Earth

Good morning, Lord. Election day…this is the day You have made for us. We are in Your hands. Let us rejoice in You, O God. Let us be glad…for Your plans are trustworthy for our nation. Your ways are true. You are Sovereign over all nations, dear Lord. Kings and Presidents and all leaders are appointed for a season on earth. But You are eternal, and your faithful love endures forever. As this election unfolds today, I pray that Your will is being accomplished on earth, for our ultimate good, no matter the outcome.

For I KNOW the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” (Jeremiah 29:11)

You know the hearts of everyone, God. You know it all – every player, every component, every plan of man. You see it all, El Roi, our God who sees all things without time…the end from the beginning, and everything in between…at a single glance. Help us to see Your will in the outcome.

Have mercy on our nation, Lord. Guide us to seek You and Your righteousness. Heal our nation, O God. Bind up the wounds of division that the enemy has planted on earth. Turn our hearts away from our selfish ways and draw our hearts to You. I pray Your will explodes in wisdom within the hearts and minds of every citizen who votes today. And that in it, You will be honored and glorified on earth.

Give thanks to the LORD because he is good – because his faithful love lasts forever.

The LORD is for me – I won’t be afraid.

The LORD is for me – as my helper.

It is far better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust any human.

It is far better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust any human leader.

Open the gates of righteousness for me so I can come in and give thanks to the LORD!

This is the LORD’s gate; those who are righteous enter through it.

The stone rejected by the builders is now the main foundation stone!

This has happened because of the LORD;

It is astounding in our sight!

This is the day the LORD acted; we will rejoice and celebrate it!

You are my God – I will give thanks to you!

You are my God – I will lift you up high!

Give thanks to the LORD because he is good, because his faithful love lasts forever.

(Psalm 118)

We are in Your hands, Father. May Your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. I pray in the Name of Jesus, our Cornerstone, who was and who is and who is to come. Amen.
