“Let us pray. Father God, thank you for the rich blessings you have lavished upon the United States of America. 

“We are so unworthy of your grace and your mercy. Today we pray for the men and women of the United States House of Representatives. 

“Give them great wisdom, protection, and steadfast resolve. 

“In their personal lives, we ask that you replace turmoil with peace, bitterness with joy, and doubt with encouragement. 

“For our country Father, we ask that you give us a renewed sense of gratitude, an unquenchable zeal for serving those who are in need, and unity toward the common purpose of liberty. 

“Above all else, Father, we honor you today. We humbly intercede on behalf of our country and her leaders. In Jesus’ name, amen.”
