Yahweh, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy hill? He who walks blamelessly does what is right, and speaks truth in his heart; …

Reflection
Elections shape the character of governance for years to come. When women and men of unyielding honesty step into office, public trust is strengthened and governance reflects truth. Decisions made in legislative chambers and council halls require leaders who value honour above ambition and justice above convenience. Asking God to raise up candidates with steadfast moral grounding protects democratic institutions from corruption. May voters recognize leaders whose lives demonstrate personal truth, wisdom, and genuine care for those they serve.
Prayer
Pray that those with integrity, who uphold truth and righteousness, be the ones to win these positions.
