prayer

I want to share what God is saying to me about the election. It's so amazing how it fits in with Pastor's preaching, isn't it? We do have an amazing God!
On election day, I voted at 10:30 in the morning. I voted for John McCain, knowing that he was not who was going to become president. It is the right, priveledge and responsibility of the people to vote. It was a busy day and I didn't check to see who actually won the election. The next morning was early morning prayer at church, I still didn't check or know the outcome, but I knew, and was very excited about it. In prayer, God said, pray for the nation.
In intercession, the Spirit showed me a mulitude of people crying out for a king. Many of these peoples were being led by racial motivation only. God gave them their king. There was still a great excitement with this. Because God was saying "If My people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray, and turn from their ways, then I will heal their land. The excitment is in the greatness of our God and those things that look impossible are the very things that are possible with Him! It would not be seen as a miracle from God if the election went the other way. God is ALWAYS in control. Then, that night at church Pastor Randy preaches on Barak Obama being like King Cyrus. And God having his hand on him. This is so good! So exciting! What an exciting time in history! In this culture of honor, I honor this man. He is very intellegent, and we are in for a totally cool ride. But again, I want to stress that the people of God, those called by His name, must turn from their own ideas, ways and thoughts on this whole thing and pray!! God will hear our prayers and heal our land!!! He hears our voice and we are living under an open heaven in this place! God forgive us for being prayerless. Forgive us for doing our own thing, we want your will and your ways for this country. For all of the peoples. For generations to come. Use this man, Barak Obama, to carry out Your plans for Your kingdom. Transform his heart before our very eyes. Heal our land on earth as it is in heaven!! God, let President Bush finish his tasks well and go out of office with honor.... And bless our new President. May you bless him and keep him, and may your face shine on him... Your will be done, Your Kingdom come, here on earth as it is in heaven! amen. I encourage you to keep praying for our nation!! Love you guys!
