Our prayer today, Our Father, is for President-Elect Barack Obama. [Please add your prayers as well.]
Our prayers include:
That You, the infinite font of wisdom, might grant him wisdom daily.
That You, the loving God of all, might grant him love for you and for others, including our enemies.
That You, the holy and righteous God of justice, might empower him to do what is right in all that he does.
That You, the Lord, might grant him the charisma of insight to lead in this turbulent world and time.
That You, the Healer, might grant him the grace of reconciling damaged relations in this country and in the world about us.
That You, the God of Life, might grant him a commitment to act for all -- the unborn and born, the young and old, the civilian and the soldier -- to preserve life and honor that each of us is fashioned in the image of God.
That You, the Father, might grant him the time and wisdom to father his two young daughters and love Michelle, his wife.
And that You, the God of all comfort, might grace him and his family as they mourn the loss of his grandmother.
Lord, hear our prayer.
Through Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.

Now how shall we pray that our President follow God's plan for the United States of America?
Pro 21:1 The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.
Dan 4:27 Wherefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable unto thee, and break off thy sins by righteousness, and thine iniquities by shewing mercy to the poor; if it may be a lengthening of thy tranquillity.
Dan 4:25 That they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and they shall wet thee with the dew of heaven, and seven times shall pass over thee, till thou know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he
will.
Dan 4:29 At the end of twelve months he walked in the palace of the kingdom of Babylon.
Dan 4:30 The king spake, and said, Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house of the kingdom by the might of my power, and for the honour of my majesty?
Dan 4:31 While the word was in the king's mouth, there fell a voice from heaven, saying, O king Nebuchadnezzar, to thee it is spoken; The kingdom is departed from thee.
We shall see the end of it.
I add my prayers to all of the above.
Never before has a President of the United States been in a more difficult situation and I feel his very life is in danger.
I am also deeply dismayed to see a discourse of hate coming from so many who profess to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ, Lord of Love. Let us hope and pray also that this discourse does not fuel action.
Mr. President
May you stay focused on the path seeking divine guidance, wisdom, and right action. With resolve toward the transformation and transcendence, holding fast to highest purpose and principles. May you and your family be surrounded by light and protection. Namaste, OM. Shanti. Amen.

Heavenly Father,
I do not question your reasoning for our president. I do Pray that you assign him and his family a staff of angels for protection against the evilness in this world. We live in a nation where skin color can determine life or death; where people have so much hatred in their hearts that they will kill over something as simple as refusing to share a slice of bread.
I Pray for a country which has turned your precious earth into their garbage dump and continues to poison and destroy all that you've given us. I Pray for the salvation of man.
