God of all Governments

You have instructed us to pray for our governing officials, and I come to you in obedience today.

I pray for my state government…its executive, legislative, and judicial servants. May they serve the people and govern in a manner that protects liberty and virtue. I also pray for public servants in my local government. May they all heed your mandate to be God’s servants and use their influence for the good of the public.

They govern in difficult times. May they receive wisdom from You, and may Your grace be poured out on them.

Protect us from oppressive authority and help us to value and preserve freedom, which You have provided. Help me to show the respect due our elected leaders while having the courage to speak truth to power.

AMEN

Creator of all Knowledge

To fill the emptiness at the center of our existence, America has turned to science to answer the essential questions of life.

But, science is limited to the observable. If truth is beyond natural law…if it is supernatural…then science can do no more than stand in awe of that great beyond. Science has no answer for “Why do I exist?” …a roll of the dice is insufficient. Science has no answer for the origins of the universe…the big bang is unsatisfactory. Science has no answer for the existence of a “moral law” that separates us from the animals. The answer for the emptiness in the soul of America…and all the other questions science cannot resolve is found in a single word: GOD.

Thank You for filling my empty center and providing the answer to what lies beyond science.

AMEN
