Let’s pray for wisdom for Senator Cruz, Representative Roy, and all others who are working to address non-citizen voting, which is unconstitutional.

From The Daily Wire. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) introduced a bill this week to stop non-citizens from voting in local elections in Washington, D.C.

Let the IFA community know how to pray for you.

 

The legislation comes in response to a newly passed law in the nation’s capital that gives non-citizens, including illegal immigrants, the right to vote in municipal races.

“Allowing non-citizens, including aliens occupying our nation illegally, to exercise a right reserved for American citizens not only violates the constitutional principles our nation was founded upon, but also naively invites foreign meddling in our elections,” Cruz said in a press release.

“Voting is a privilege and the tool by which American citizens exercise their say in who leads our country, how we spend our tax dollars, and what policies should be instituted. I am vehemently against unconstitutionally cheapening the votes of American citizens and ignoring the rule of law in this nation,” he added. …

This legislation is being led in the House of Representatives by Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX).

The Washington, D.C., City Council voted in October to pass the Local Resident Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2022 in a 12-1 vote. Democratic Mayor Muriel Bowser allowed the bill to pass without her signature, as she refused to veto the legislation.

The U.S. Congress has legislative authority over the District of Columbia. The city council transmitted the bill to Congress on January 11, with the House Oversight Committee seeking to block it the next day. …

Father,
We pray that our Constitution would be upheld, that righteous leaders would prevail in protecting our nation from criminals, and all illegal aliens would be removed from our nation. We are a nation of native born, former immigrants and refugees that were either born as citizens or legally become citizens. We pray that only US citizens continue to have the right to vote. And those imprisoned would have their right to vote withheld until they serve their time. Stop the communists traitors from destroying our nation through an invasion of illegal aliens. Stop them from making unlawful laws. Hold these traitors all accountable for their crimes. We pray in Jesus’ name. Amen!

Father we ask you to open eyes to see the truth in this area. Continue to give those like Sen. Cruz who see this correctly the right words and situations to help others not be deceived by those who are either following “the Party” or thinking with their emotions seeing the photos of people in terrible situations and wanting a better way to live. You love them and can direct them if they will seek your will. You can bring a revival among the refugees so they can fulfill your purposes for them, perhaps in their native land.

LORD, we ask that you would grant our leadership the courage and discernment to respect the basic human needs of persons who have evaded our immigration laws while not extending to them the rights or privileges our Constitution extends to legal citizens, including voting. Give us the perseverance to pray and work towards this end and bless and protect Senator Cruz and other legislators leading in this effort.

Ezra 7:26
Whoever will not observe the law of your God and the law of the king, let judgment be executed upon him strictly, whether for death or for banishment or for confiscation of goods or for imprisonment.”

Lord, according to the word that you gave your prophet of old that still applies to us today. You Lord see all these laws that are being passed that is not according to your laws which are righteous. Lord I pray that such laws that go against what you have inspired our forefather’s to establish for this land that they may be banish or as your word says may they be imprisoned for being betrayers of this nation and your statutes. We pray Lord that they may repent and may they seek righteousness. We want your ways Lord for your ways are perfect and good. Where your righteousness abound evil is removed. We want you Lord first in everything that we do! In Jesus name I pray.
