Pastor Craig Rees, Lead Pastor of Central Wesleyan Church in Holland, offered the following invocation:

“Almighty God,

You are the Governor of the nations and the Judge of all the earth. As the Psalmist declares, ‘Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne; steadfast love and faithfulness go before You.’

We come before You today as generations of American leaders have done—from statehouses to the Continental Congress—recognizing that our freedoms are preserved not only by policy, but by Providence. In the words of President Lincoln, may we ‘do right as God gives us to see the right,’ and govern with integrity and courage.

We pray now for this House, for its Representatives, and for all who labor here.

Grant them wisdom beyond partisanship, vision beyond election cycles, and a deep sense of responsibility for the people of Michigan—those they represent and those without a voice. Let every debate be shaped by truth, every decision weighed with humility, and every law formed for the common good.

In a time of cultural division, may these leaders model unity that is not the absence of conviction, but the presence of character. Let their disagreements be honorable, their deliberations thoughtful, and their decisions anchored in what serves the long-term good of all Michiganders.

As they face complex decisions—on education that shapes our children, on infrastructure that connects our communities, on the economy that sustains our families, on justice that upholds our dignity, and on public health that protects our future—may they do so with wisdom from above.

Grant them the courage to do what is right, not just what is easy; and may their leadership invite Your favor and earn the enduring trust of the people they serve.

Bless this House with clarity in vision, civility in speech, and courage in action.

In Jesus’s name we pray. Amen.”
