The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight

– Proverbs 9:10 ESV

Prayer: the fear of the Lord

Lord God – this presidential election cycle has exposed the deceit and corruption of our political system as never before.

+ Deliver us from evil, Lord.

Both parties, up and down the election ticket, have shamelessly conspired to rig the system for personal gain and power.

+ Deliver us from evil, Lord.

Our government has been weaponized against its own citizens in order to suppress dissent.

+ Deliver us from evil, Lord.

For all His faults, Donald Trump is the last man standing against this corrupt, rigged system.

+ Make him a God-fearing man, Lord.

Draw Donald Trump closer to you, as never before.

+ Make him a God-fearing man, Lord.

Implant in Donald Trump’s mind and heart the conviction that he is firstly accountable to you.

+ Make him a God-fearing man, Lord.

And for the remainder of this campaign, may he weigh each decision and action according to your standard of godliness.

+ Make him a God-fearing man, Lord.

+ In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit – one God forever. Amen.
