Tensions are high, and all eyes are on the November elections. What will the results mean for our nation? It is a critical time in history for both America and our world.

While leaders determine a nation’s course, God is sovereign and can be trusted. Let’s humbly seek His Presence and His intervention on behalf of America. In a posture of unity, let’s agree that He is the only one who can turn the tide in our nation.

Our battle is not against flesh and blood but principalities, powers, and spiritual wickedness in high places, and the battle belongs to the Lord. He has permitted us to come boldly to His throne for mercy and grace in our time of need; this is a time of great need. Intercessors must lift our voices with one heart and mind and stand in the gap for America.

Day 11: Pray for the Media

And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free. (John 8:32 ESV)

Blatant misinformation and censorship of media outlets that report the truth have created anxiety and confusion, and have sown division among family, friends, and neighbors. It is now well known that many of the means of disseminating information are biased, corrupt, or compromised. The truth is more powerful than any lie because the truth has the power to set people free.

• Pray for integrity and truth in media and for corrupt media outlets to either reform or go out of business (see Ephesians 4:25).
• Pray for wisdom and balanced, unbiased coverage in the conviction to report the facts in a truthful manner (see James 3:17).
