Our Father in Heaven,

     I praise You for Your greatness and for the many things You do for me each day.  I ask that You forgive me for my sins and reveal to me the sins I do not see yet.  As our country steps into a new Presidency, I ask that You would guide our new President in Your paths and that he would do your will both in his life and for this nation.  Allow him to be filled with Your Spirit as he steps into office.  Protect him and his family with Your protection.  Keep them under Your wings.  He will be faced with many difficulties and trials and I pray that Your hand would rest powerfully upon his life and that the world would once again see that we are “one nation under God”.  I know that all things work together for them that love You and that this is Your will for us at this time and I thank You for it.

     I feel an overwhelming desire to Praise the Lord today.  With all that is going on we, as Christians, need to remember to Praise the Lord today and every day.  Although president elect Obama was not my personal choice I will practice what I wrote on Sunday and give him honor and respect because he would not be in office had not God so ordained.  Also, whether we agree or disagree, we are duty bound by God to pray for him and this country.  Nothing is immune to the power of prayer.  I just have a couple of scriptures to leave you with.

Psalm 150

1 Praise the LORD.
Praise God in his sanctuary;
praise him in his mighty heavens.

2 Praise him for his acts of power;
praise him for his surpassing greatness.

3 Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet,
praise him with the harp and lyre,

4 praise him with tambourine and dancing,
praise him with the strings and flute,

5 praise him with the clash of cymbals,
praise him with resounding cymbals.

6 Let everything that has breath praise the LORD.
Praise the LORD.

President Elect Obama, I for one will be praying for God to guide you in all you do.  May the Lord be with you and our country as you begin your duties today.
