Flag This PrayerLord, I pray for the leaders in the local and state levels to be transformed in Jesus' name. May the hearts of the leaders soften and be stirred for truth and justice as they serve in their capacity as leaders. Father, I lift up the state of West Virginia and ask you to send a sweeping wind of revival over West Virginia, in the homes of families, in the communities, in the churches, in the schools, in the courtrooms, in public places, over the whole state. Let revival come to the hearts of the people and let your purposes be fulfilled. Work in the hearts of believers and give them courage and boldness to speak truth and stand up for biblical values and may it spread like a wild fire across the state of West Virginia. I pray in the powerful name of Jesus! Amen!

Flag This PrayerLord God Almighty, we come boldly before the Throne and we ask that you place on the leaders from local and state and federal hearts to full fill your purpose. Your will, Lord be done not mans. Evil has corrupted the judicial systems, the local, state and federal levels of this land. Oh Lord, you govern all. Let these leaders be shaken with a mighty force that they get no peaceful rest until they open their hearts to your voice. Breathe on them Oh Lord and let them know that you, the Alpha and the Omega are sovereign. We pray for this country and we ask for your Mercy for the sins we have committed against you. We know that your protection for this country is the only shield we need. We pray for a 'great awakening of souls" seeking your forgiveness and grace. In Jesus name we pray, Amen

Flag This PrayerLook up into the heavens. Who created all the stars? He brings them out like an army, one after another, calling each by its name. Because of his great power and incomparable strength, not a single one is missing. Isaiah 40:26 NLT Lord, I ask that you would call forth righteousness like the stars, in our candidates running for office, that each vote would be a vote for righteousness. I lift up to you poll workers, mail carriers, ballot processing centers, and everyone involved to insure righteousness wins this election in very race. Restore confidence and unity to our nation so that it is known as One Nation Under God around the world. In the matchless Name of Jesus, amen!

Deliver them from bondage that leads to death and bring them into your light that gives them breath. Grace and Mercy... Truth and Justice be upon them. May West Virginia light up under your leadership. Expose the dark things that are robbing and destroying them. Call godly officials to take their place. Press upon Christians to vote their values. Protect every ballot to be processed and counted. Show them how important it is to protect pre-born babies. Help elect people that will lead this state as an example to the nation. May they find favor where ever they go.

Flag This PrayerFather in the name of your son JESUS, hear our prayers for the people of WEST VIRGINIA. We declare your word over WEST VIRGINIA. We declare your Kingdom come and your will be done in the people of WEST VIRGINIA. We declare for the people of WEST VIRGINIA that Your redeemer is coming! Restoration is coming! We decree that the spirits of darkness are defeated by the power of JESUS. We believe Lord, help our unbelief. You said your thoughts are nothing like our thoughts and your ways are far beyond anything we could imagine. Just as the heavens are higher than the earth, your ways are higher than our ways and your thoughts higher than our thoughts. You said the rain and snow comes down from heaven and stays on the ground to water the earth. The rain and snow cause the grain to grow and produce seed for the farmer and bread for the hungry. It is the same with Your word. You send it out, and it always produces fruit. You said it will accomplish all that you want it to accomplish and it will prosper everywhere you send it. (Isaiah 55:8-11)

Flag This PrayerI listen carefully to what God the Lord is saying, for he speaks peace to his faithful people. But let them not return to their foolish ways. Surely his salvation is near to those who fear him, so our land will be filled with his glory. Psalms 85:8-9 NLT https://bible.com/bible/116/psa.85.8-9.NLT May the hearts of the people be turned to the One True God!

Flag This PrayerFather God, thank you for the opportunity to pray for WEST VIRGINIA and its Senators, Representative, Governor and his administration. We pray that all these people in government to draw close to You God. To know You. Because Proverbs 9:10 said: "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding." Matthew 7:7 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you." In Jesus' Name, Father, if You will, please keep WEST VIRGINIA a red state with conservatives value whose allegiance is to God, put American (People) first then do the Constitution. So that Republican Party can do their job to protect the right of the people as it is intended when it was created in 1854. I pray that the Republican Party will be as united as the Democratic Party. Father God please raise up Christian men and women to be like Daniel who dare to stand for what is right, who will have no corruption in them because they are trustworthy, not corrupt, nor negligent. They will not bow before any the idol in the form of money, power, fear and influence. They will stand firm and speak the truth in love. They are the righteous whose allegiance only to KING JESUS. In Jesus' name, please clean up corruptions in every level of the government. Thank You Father for leading the election of 2016. We ask you again Father that You put Your hands in this 2020 election so that elections to be fair, honest and without corruption. Father, please mobilize the Body of Christ from every corner of WEST VIRGINIA to vote in person this Nov. 2020, to vote for President Trump so that he will be given a landslide winning and bless P Trump with all republicans conservatives administrations who will put You first and always pray for Your guidance to run this country to go back to the beginning when the founder of America made a covenant with You. I pray that the Body of Christ will exercise their right to be SALT and LIGHT of the world and be involve, more engage in government not only electing but working in the government to ignite America under God. The Body of Christ / The Church draw close to God, pray without ceasing, always wearing the Armor of God, always ready to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Body of Christ will live a family live that is desirable and envied by others so that they want to know more about Jesus. I pray that America will always respect the Bill of Right that was written by Thomas Jefferson on January 1, 1801 - a wall of separation from there being a state-church - This is what many whom fled from England experienced; where the church and state were one and the same. He was concerned that the government would fund religion as they did in England and that religious worship at a state-church would be deemed compulsory. As In his memoirs, he wanted to make sure that the state would not impose their own ideology or theology upon all churches. Father God, the Supreme Court Justices are NOT to be lifetime justices. They can be removed if their character, actions, etc. are deemed unmoral. They cannot be judicial activists. They are not to make laws as their responsibility is only to GIVE AN OPINION or TO INTERPRET THE LAW. Remove those from the bench who will refuse Christ and will always walk away from You and Your precepts. I pray for all the current justices to draw near to You so that they can do the jobs that they signed up to do. Please save this honorable court. Please restore the checks and balances on each branches’ power. As of late, the Legislative branch has abdicated its powers to both the executive branch and the judicial branch. We sorely need our true representation restored, since we are losing even the idea of ‘no legislation without representation’ and ‘no taxation without representation’. Father, restore just government to all branches, in Jesus name. May the grace of the LORD Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with us all from today onward. Hear our cry, O Lord, and attend unto our prayers as we pray for turnaround in America, ONE state at a time. In Jesus' name we thank You. Amen.
