"Lord,

Thank You for this opportunity to come together as Your servants. We pray for our President, our Governor, members of legislative bodies and members of the judiciary ­ all of our governing authorities and ask that they would be guided by Your wisdom and governed by Your Spirit for the benefit of Your people. Also, we pray for protection for our troops in harm's way.

In our legislative duties, we, at times, miss the mark and so we ask Your forgiveness for our shortcomings. Help us also forgive others, out of gratitude for the grace and mercy You have shown us.

I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen."
