Voting Information for State and Federal Offices up for Grabs in this 2018 Elections Cycle (Links, Candidates, Etc.)
I am praying that Gods people will get serious about praying for and getting involved in this very important election cycle. Praying for victory for those candidates that will benefit the Church and the US. Praying the Lord will raise up an army of praying Christians that will get informed about the candidates that are within their sphere of influence, both in regards to praying and also getting involved locally. Not just praying that“Gods will be done.” Although that is of course important, I am speaking of praying for specifics. There is place for generalized prayers as well as for specific prayers. They are both taught and demonstrated in Gods Word.
State Executive Offices
