A Note From Pastor Alan

Pray for Our Country Letter Board on a Vintage American Flag

Pray for Our New President

We now have a new president - Joe Biden. Many are happy with the change and many are not, but as Christians we need to pray for our new president. Remembering that our highest allegiance is always to the Lordship of Jesus Christ and then to the words He gives us in the Bible regarding how to live.


Therefore, how then should we pray for our new President, Joe Biden, and our new Vice President, Kamala Harris? We need to pray daily for them and the other elected officials. Here's some guidance.


1 Timothy 2:1-2, "First of all, then, I urge that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for everyone, for kings and all those who are in authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity."


1.   Acknowledge to God that He has placed them in these positions of authority. Daniel 2:21 says that God changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and establishes kings.

2.   Ask God to protect President Biden and his wife, as well as Vice President Harris and her husband, from the forces of evil that may desire to do them harm.

3.   Appeal to God that He will provide His wisdom to President Biden and Vice President Harris so they will see what God desires and be influenced by those around them who will give them the right counsel.

4.   Ask God to empower them to make decisions that will protect our nation at all times, leading us to be able to live tranquil and quiet lives in all godliness and dignity.

5.   Appeal to God earnestly that President Biden and Vice President Harris and all of their administration will find ways to work with both houses of Congress, bringing resolution to the most pressing needs facing America today.


America needs our prayers more than ever! We are facing a multitude of crises with the greatest being spiritual. Our spiritual crises is the foundational cause of most, it not all, of the others. Remember Proverbs 13:24 says, "Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people."


Keep praying !

See you Sunday!

Onward and Upward!
