Canada's Federal Election is just days away on October 19, 2015.
I have spent the better part of today praying over this from my hotel room in Louisiana. Even as I prepare for the services here, Canada weighs heavy on my heart and in the spirit there is a push to pray.
This year for the first time my speaking schedule fell into place that I just so happened to be speaking in 3 Canadian provinces and visited 4 in just the last 3 months consecutively.
While there ministering it rose up in me each time that this nation is at a critical tipping point. There was and is a sense of urgency that things could go one way or the other that will have a long reaching effect - not just for Canada but will impact us here in the U.S. and the rest of the world.
Today I have been praying this Prayer Strategy for these Canadian Elections found
in the last 5 verses of Psalms 84.
A Strategy To Pray For Canada. What I hear the Holy Spirit saying ...
Verse 8 - O Lord hear our prayer
(This prayer that proceeds in these verses has some same verbiage that is used in the National Anthem of Canada ...) It is as if an invitation, a doorway to God is hidden/placed within the song of the nation which grants Him access.
Verse 9 - Behold, Look - O God our shield and look upon The face of thine Anointed.
( Declaring God is and continue to be the true shield of the Nation, not any man made systems)
Verse 10 - For the Lord God, a sun and shield: The Lord will give GRACE AND GLORY, no good will He withhold from them that walk up rightly. ( Declaring Grace and Glory On and For Canada)
Verse 11 - For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand (elsewhere)
( More can be accomplished in 1 day in the high court of heaven than a thousand in the earthy courts of a nation and so the Church Arises and conducts spiritual business on behalf of the nation.)
Verse 12 - O Lord of hosts (angel armies that assist us) Blessed is the man (Nation) that trusts in Thee.
The churches in Canada I have had the honor of being in are strong and they are praying.
Let's join them and declare that ...
1.) This election will serve God’s purposes for Canada.
2.) That Canada will be a country whose elected leaders are individuals of character, and integrity.
3.) That these elected officials will be a friend to Israel in their policies and in their diplomatic maneuvers.
Lyrics of National Anthem
O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!
From far and wide,
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee
I Call You Blessed,
Jen Tringale
