Lord, You said that we Your people must pray for our governmental leaders that we may lead a quiet and peaceful life in full observance of our way of life in God. I bring before Gov. McMaster, all the representatives, our two state senators Tim Scott and Lindsay Graham. Father, may they hear Your voice saying "go this way." Protect them and their families. Strengthen each one to stand for righteousness and justice. May they not be coerced to take a bribe, but rather rely in and trust You for every provision. Bless and keep them this day and through the week. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

Thank you Jesus for teaching us to pray, using your name…so I ask Father God in the name of Jesus that your will be done in my State of South Carolina, that you compel men and women to run for local, state, and federal office of all kinds. I pray that our current leaders gain wisdom and discernment from You Lord Jesus to carry out your laws first. I pray for our local elections here that the persons of your choosing Father God be elected and move us forward to bring heaven and heaven’s purposes down, so we can be a safe place to vacation and so evil must flee from our city in Jesus name! To God be the glory, Amen

Lord, please guide our leaders to your wisdom in leading and guiding us. It is your wisdom that never fails. Help all understand we are all your children. Help each of us be better citizens and better disciples for our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. In His name we pray. Amen

Father God, King of the Universe, lifter of our heads, thank you for the righteous men and women who have taken on the yoke of leadership to establish wisdom in the governing bodies of NC and in other states. You are raising up leaders who seek your direction, and You are pulling down men and women who stand to fight against You and your Kingdom purposes. Thank you for judges who are hearing you; help them walk in lock step with Your Holy Spirit. Deny entrance to leadership of those who enter into lies and deceptions in order to gain power to manipulate the citizens of this state and every state, and subvert the Constitution of the United States of America. Thank you for all you do we can't see, but believe by faith, that those things You do are answered prayers. You are God and there is no other. Keep all citizens of NC safe from unjust and evil laws that are designed to destroy our homeland and our liberties. Put a hedge about us, arise to defeat the enemies of USA from without and from within. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen

"Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the Everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and His understanding no one can fathom." (Isaiah 40:28) Father God, Sovereign Lord, Great and Awesome God, and Our Shield, we praise You for Your great faithfulness to Israel, and we plead Your wisdom, provision, favor, blessings and protection for Israel and Israeli leadership as the country responds to the Palestinian attacks. We pray for USA leadership, Palestinian leadership, and the world's leadership in their relations with Israel. --from Dr. David Jeremiah, Why American Christians Should Pray for Israel. "The psalmist tells us to 'pray for the peace of Jerusalem.' So I pray for peace for Your chosen people, Israel, and their beloved city today. You have planned for Israel, provided for Israel, and protected Israel for thousands of years. But as in days of old, there are those today who seek to harm, even destroy, Your people. So I ask You to keep Israel in Your loving care. Put a spiritual hedge of protection around Your people and their land. Watch over this nation as a Good Shepherd watches over His flock, and may Your Chosen People find their ultimate safety and security in You. While You watch over Your people, may Your Spirit awaken in them a hunger to embrace their Messiah—the One who died for them—until they see Him face-to-face. We pray this in His name, Amen.

How many South Carolinians are on this site? I just moved here. Praying for our nation to turn around and return to God.

No weapon that has formed against us will prosper. Every tongue that arises against us will be condemned. This is our heritage as servants of the Lord. The warrior bride is rising, passionate about partnering with God to accomplish His will on earth and to establish His kingdom on earth. The sons of God are ready to be revealed, ruling and reigning on this earth. Strengthen our hands, Lord.

Praying for our state leaders and their continued efforts to fight abortion legislation.
Mark Johnson, Belton, SC March 24, 2021, 7:45 am
Father, in Jesus Name we ask that you lead those who lead this State. We ask the the seed of freedom that you planted in SC would again come forth and bring birth to release from long term poverty in some sections and people in SC. We ask for new growth and businesses in these areas. We pray for a government climate that allows people to flourish and not be repressed by ideas that keep them captive. In the Name of Jesus we will not yield to an overarching power that desires to simply keep us in our place! Release revival in this State in the Name of Jesus!

Yes, our next step is to have a Zoom prayer time by state, and to provide more specific communication opportunities between intercessors in your state to pray, share info, post prayer events, etc. We are rolling that out as we get it complete. Any helpful input along the way is welcome!

Father God I thank you for calling us and allowing us to come BOLDLY before Your throne of grace and receive mercy in our time of need. Father I pray for those who have been seated in pace of governance over South Carolina, for those in my home city of M.B., Lord that they would seek You first in all of their decisions that You would grasp their hearts Lord and turn them toward you. Father, you birthed this nation to be a light on a hill and that others would see that we “are one nation under God, indivisible with justice and Liberty for all”. We have come so far from Your original intent for us Father. Please forgive us and lead us back to YOUR VISION. Father we lift our leaders to you, and as Your children we stand in the gap for those who have yet to come to know You and Jesus as their redeemer. Without this knowledge, we are waging a war we can never win. Your Word tells us the the government is upon Jesus’ shoulders. We pray YOUR WILL be done in our cities and our states, May You touch each home with revelation knowledge of Who you are and who you have called us to be. We ask these things in the name that is above EVERY name. Jesus, be glorified
