LORD JESUS, Touch our state, Tennessee, with a mighty wind of revival. Give us wisdom to follow Your instructions in 2 Chronicles 7:14. Thank You for giving us a Governor that is that loves You and Tennessee! Amen.
Prayer is our most effective defense against the evils of our world today. I pray for unity in our nation in our political parties and our citizens that we may once again be the UNITED States of America. Amen!
My God ,I thank you for our God fearing leaders in Tennessee. It makes me glad to know that You and Your established word is not just a process or falling on deaf ears, but allowing Christian values to be seen , heard , and felt . Bless Bill Lee and all leaders ,help them to stand strong and to do Your will , overcoming the evils in our world . May God bless our Leaders and our great state of Tennessee. Amen .
Praying for our Governor, his wife and family. We are praying that he makes righteous decisions for our state. We trust that He prays and believes the Lord when He says, “I will instruct you and teach you the way to go with My eye upon you.”
I our Governor in his call on September 30. TO Go be the glory! AMEN.
Please also be in prayer for our team “COVER TN IN PRAYER” as we go pray and declare across the state next week from cities east to west and north to south, and I border states.
My prayer is many other governers will follow your leading.
I am daring to believe this for California. I pray California will someday lead this nation in righteousness, that God’s kingdom will come and His will be done HERE, that we will have no other King over our state but JESUS CHRIST!
This is beautiful, truly. As they humble themselves before Him, may God richly bless Gov. Bill Lee, his family, his colleagues, and his constituents. May this day be a “birthday” for Tennessee. I ask this in the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen
God bless Tennesse, its people and its government. May the spirit of God grant them wisdom and discernment to conduct the Tennesse’s people’s life according to Father God purposes and for the glory of His name. May this be a ligth to follow for the other states and countries, the mighty name of Jesus we pray for Tennesse peoples and government, Amen.
Fantastic!! Way to go Gov Lee! May God Bless Tennessee!
