Several Christian organizations, including the National Day of Prayer
Task Force and Focus on the Family, are calling for a “National Day of
Prayer” on Sunday to ask for divine help in Tuesday’s historic election.
“‘PRAY … FOR ELECTION DAY!’ will encourage millions of Christians
to seriously consider and act upon their spiritual and moral obligations
in the upcoming elections. The ministries are targeting pastors,
ministry leaders, and their constituencies to mark Nov. 5 as a day to
pray, fast, and exhort others to vote,” says the
Family.org
website of Dr. James Dobson’s popular family-values organization, Focus on the Family.
Tuesday’s presidential election is the closest race — and, according to many political and cultural leaders, the most important American election — in decades. In addition, all 435 congressional representatives, one third of the Senate, innumerable governors and other state and local officials and ballot measures will be decided.
“This is a watershed moment for our country,” says Shirley Dobson, who chairs the National Day of Prayer Task Force. “As a nation, we’ve lost our tradition of right and wrong, common decency and kindness. Only God — along with the commitment and courage exercised by people of faith — can restore truth and morality to our land.”
She added, “Our civic duty to vote and exhort others to participate in the electoral process is a tremendous privilege and responsibility.”
