PRAYER GUIDE FOR

ELECTION INTEGRITY

Many Americans are rightly concerned about fairness and honesty in the ongoing vote counts in the 2020 election. As irregularities are being

investigated, we must pray that disputed races will be settled with righteousness and justice. The right to vote, and the expectation that our vote will be properly registered and counted, is sacrosanct in this free nation and must be preserved.

The path forward for America requires integrity, honesty, and God’s light. We must pray for transparency, for vigilance and caution on the part of election officials, for peace to reign throughout America, and above all—the Lord’s provision for our great nation.

“And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us.”

1 John 5:14
