Prayer for Honorable Voting

Holy God,

We know the weight of importance of this election, and we know that each vote is a piece of the final result. So, we pray that each legal voter who desires to cast a vote would be able to access a ballot, whether by absentee or in person. We pray that each legal vote would be safely returned on time and counted accurately. We pray that you would stop anyone who is not a legal voter from casting a vote and that there would be no snags in the postal service or any other stage of the return of those ballots. You said you desire integrity in our hearts. We pray that you would cause the election officials at every level of government of this nation to do their jobs with utmost integrity. From each township, to each county, to each state, to the national level, may there be no attempts at fraud, voter intimidation or harrassment, or lost, destroyed, or counterfeit ballots, In the name of Jesus we pray you would stop any election official that in any way interferes with legal voters casting legal votes or with the truthful counting of those votes. Cause anyone who tries to tamper with the election results to be exposed and convicted even before the election. In this day when so many are distrustful of the government and the voting system, we pray that this election would be without any corruption or fraud. We pray that, because of the integrity of the election officials and the election process, we may trust in a fair count of legal ballots and this election process. May your will be done and your Kingdom come, in Jesus’s name. Amen.

“An honest witness tells the truth, but a false witness tells lies.” (Proverbs 12:17)

“People with integrity walk safely, but those who follow crooked paths will be exposed.” (Proverbs 10:9)

“When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command locusts to devour the land or send a plague among my people, if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place. I have chosen and consecrated this temple so that my Name may be there forever. My eyes and my heart will always be there.” (2 Chronicles 7:13-16 NIV)
