Pray the Vote Experiment

From Bwtm

For 40 days prior to the 2006 Election the Presidential Prayer Team prayed:

Pray for all citizens to faithfully seek God’s will concerning candidates and issues…
Pray for godly leaders to be elected on November 7

So, did they get what they prayed for? Is this an example of: "Be careful what you pray for, you might just get it"? Are the Democrats who were elected godly leaders? Are the loosers ungodly?

THE PRESIDENTIAL PRAYER TEAM

"We've staked the whole future of American civilization not on the power of government, far from it. We have staked the future of all our political institutions upon the capacity of each and all of us . . . to Govern ourselves according to the commandments of God. The future and success of America is not in this Constitution, but in the laws of God upon which this Constitution is founded."

--President James Madison

ABOUT THE PRESIDENTIAL PRAYER TEAM

Many across America and Americans in other countries are heeding the call to pray for our President. In a short time since the September 11 terrorist attacks, well over a million people have registered their promise to pray daily for the President. That number is increasing by the thousands of new team members every month. News of The Presidential Prayer Team is spreading rapidly throughout America as people march to the tempo of an almost forgotten tune, "God Bless America."

The independent, nonprofit organization behind The Presidential Prayer Team, has a singular purpose: to encourage Americans to pray daily for the President.

There is no fee or obligation for joining. Members receive a handsome free window decal and prayer updates by email. Anyone choosing to remember the President in daily prayer is urged to sign up.

"At this moment, I have in my heart a prayer. I ask only to be a good and faithful servant of my Lord and my people."
--President Harry S. Truman

Michael W. Smith, Joni Eareckson Tada, Senator Jon Kyl, Bill McCartney, Thomas Kinkade, Jack Hayford, Jerry Colangelo, John Maxwell, Henry Blackaby, David Jeremiah, Paul Cedar and Ron Blue are among those putting their names behind The Presidential Prayer Team and its goal to encourage millions to pray daily for the President, the Cabinet and the nation.

"Truly in this time, for this generation, the call to prayer could not be more important. The young people of our nation are becoming involved in worship and prayer in a way they never have before. Now is the time to summon all of our energies for this important effort of prayer-so God's purposes may be served and His will may be done. I've been fortunate to spend time with several presidents personally, and my respect for these men is tremendous, because they have helped preserve the freedoms we enjoy. I urge you to continue to pray for the President and his advisors regarding the tough decisions that they will have to make in the coming weeks and months. The Presidential Prayer Team is one way we can help leave a legacy of freedom to our children. May the Lord continue to draw us all closer to Him in awesome ways, and as we seek Him, may God truly bless America."
--Michael W. Smith

Bill McCartney, president and founder of Promise Keepers, encourages others to pray and join this effort saying, "God's Word instructs us to honor and submit to our government's leadership. Prayer is the first and most powerful way to do this."

Jack Hayford, author, radio and television preacher and Senior Pastor of The Church on the Way in Van Nuys, California says, "In every storm there is a 'Peace! Be still' Christ will speak where prayer call invites Him. It is every believer's call to prayerfully hold up the arms of those who lead, that peace may keep and fill their souls, and that peace and peacemaking may issue through their leadership." (1 Timothy 2:1-3)

FROM OUR PRESIDENT/CEO: THANK YOU FOR PRAYING

John Lind, President/CEO
with renowned prayer author Evelyn Christenson

Tuesday was an exciting day as we watched Americans exercise the highest privilege of the democratic process. Millions went to the polls and voted, and Tuesday's results reveal great change and new winds blowing--one thing we all know for certain is that God is in control, and His purposes can and will continue to be achieved, both in Washington and in our country.

While it was good to watch the elections, I have to say the Monday was an even more thrilling day as more than 9,000 faithful intercessors joined hearts and minds in prayer during our Pray the Vote Online Prayer Rally.

For me personally, it was exciting to be a part of such a dynamic prayer effort. Praying with thousands for the elections gave me a sense of encouragement and strength as we all participated together in prayer for today's election.

This has been a great week in the life of our nation. Even though I have only one vote and one prayer, when my efforts combined with yours, together we make a powerful difference! Now that we know the results of the elections, we are invigorated to move forward with regular, daily prayer for all those in authority!

We'd love to hear about your experience as you prayed in the Online Prayer Rally.

PRAYER AND FAITH: IN THE NEWS
Christians bathed elections in prayer

In this week’s National Religious Broadcasters White House Conference Call, President Bush’s liaison to the religious community, Tim Goeglein, reminded Christians about the importance of voting to their citizenship. “The first duty of Christian citizenship is to vote. I cannot stress enough how important this is.” Speaking in with members of the religious media, including The Presidential Prayer Team, Goeglein also reminded members that values are crucial in the election process. “I urge Christians everywhere to vote their values, for this is crucial to their citizenship as well.”

PPT Editor Meagan Gillan reminded Goeglein that thousand of PPT members were praying on November 6 in PPT’s Pray the Vote Online Prayer Rally, asking what prayer efforts he was aware of in Washington or at the White House. “I have received so many calls, letters and emails from people telling me that they are praying for these elections. I can’t express enough how crucial it is that people pray for this country, that God’s will is done in this election.” Goeglein further reminded listeners on the call that we must remain non-partisan in our prayer efforts, while expressing gratitude on the part of his boss. “The President mentions often his gratitude for prayer. As the elections approach, the prayer efforts are too numerous to count, and he is so grateful.”
