Charles Stanley's Week 11 Prayer: Deliver from Corruption

Thank you for joining with us in 140 Days of Prayer. Let's pray.

Father, thank You for loving and protecting Your people. We pray for those who serve as leaders in our government--that they would seek You and submit themselves to You. We know that there are those who would lead us away from Your best for our land. Father, You know them by name and love them. Shed light on any who would lead us astray so that they realize their sinfulness and repent of their wrong choices. We ask that You would draw them to Yourself, convict them of their sins, and bring them to salvation. Contend with their plans, Lord--do not allow those who seek to confuse or control people to prosper. Thank You for being our righteous Judge and King. We praise You for hearing our prayers and bringing hidden things to light. In Jesus' name, Amen. (See Isaiah 3:12-13.)
