                                 PRAYER

  Rev. Sharon Daugherty, Victory Christian Center, Tulsa, Oklahoma, 
offered the following prayer:
  Father God, we humble ourselves before You as we pray for our Nation 
and our government. You said, ``Blessed is the Nation whose God is the 
Lord.'' We pray for You to be Lord over the United States of America. 
Thank You for our forefathers who established this government upon 
biblical principles. We ask for President Obama and for our Congress to 
be guided by the moral and just standard of Your Word in their law-
making. We pray that the fear of the Lord would be the standard of 
judgment and wisdom among all who govern. Help them to hear from You as 
the authority over this universe.
  Holy Spirit, move upon the hearts of Americans in this hour and 
divinely intervene in our Nation's behalf. We repent where we have been 
wrong. Help us to do what is right. We put our trust in You alone, in 
Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
