Dear Editor,
PRAY FOR THE VOTE
October 24, 2016 marks the beginning of Early Voting. November 8, 2016 is the traditional date for voting. I am asking the Pastors of all churches to remind their congregations to exercise their right and freedom to vote. I am also asking them to begin praying for that vote. This is not a matter of Republican, Democrat, or Independent but simply praying that the best person will win the election regardless of what they are running for or whom they are running against.
We are told in the Bible to honor the government that God sets before us unless and until that government does something against God’s Will. It beckons us to pray that we know God’s Will and vote accordingly.
