Today is the ‘National Day of Prayer.’ Today is a day to pray for our country and leaders.
I want to encourage you to take some time to pray for your government leaders. I honestly think that if Christian Americans would pray for as much as they criticize their leaders, we would be better off. I have included below a list of the names of the government officials for Faith Baptist Church property. Would you just take a few minutes and pray for each. If you feel led, copy and past this list somewhere so you can pray at other times. As you humbly come before the Lord and seek His face, please pray that these men and women will be granted divine wisdom, guidance, and strength to fulfill their important roles.
