Mark Hammond (R)

God of all wisdom and knowledge, provide Mr. Hammond with Your wisdom and knowledge for all his work for the people of South Carolina. Give him ears to hear, eyes to see, and the ability to make decisions that are for the good of all the people according to Your will and Your ways. Lord, if he doesn't know you personally, then draw him to Yourself. Protect him from evil. Help him to stand for justice and righteousness, for these are the foundation of Your throne. Amen.

Father, grant Sec. of State Hammond rest and refreshment during this holiday season. Lord, draw him near to Yourself and renew his faith, his commitment to You. Grant him peace in this season. Give him fresh vigor for the work ahead. Lord, help him to have the courage and conviction to stand up for Biblical values in every area of government. Provide wise counsel, wisdom, knowledge, and light upon his path. Thank You, Father, for using him for Your purposes in our government. Work through him so that our state will be a sanctuary state, a Biblical sheep state. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

Father, thank You for Sec. of State Hammond and his work for our state and her people. Lord, he needs fresh strength, insight, wisdom, and a renewed Biblical view for accomplishing his work. Cause him to be a Joshua and a Caleb. There are mountains he wants to take. Grant him courage. Grant him Your words anointed with power to pull down strongholds and to raise up righteousness and justice, integrity and good will. Protect him. Grant him peace. Grant him rest during the Christmas holidays. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. 13 And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are open and laid bare to the eyes of Him with whom we have to do. Lord, cause Sec. of State. Hammond to look to You in all he thinks, intends and decides. Grant him wisdom, strength, courage and uprightness of heart. Help him to do what You want him to do. Show him the right way to go. Protect him from evil. In Jesus' name. Amen.

Father, I pray that Sec. of State Hammond would hear Your voice saying, "Go this way." Grant him courage and boldness to stand for righteousness, justice, and to uphold state and national constitutions. Give him a keen eye to see what the needs of his state and this nation are. Protect him from any sort of pressure by corporations and special interest groups. Grant him wisdom from above. Protect him and his family in their going out and their coming in. Give him a servant heart. For Your glory, Father. Amen.

Lord, You are the God of all wisdom, all knowledge, all might and power. You light our paths. Father, Sec. of State Hammond needs Your wisdom, knowledge, might and power to serve this state. Open his eyes to see what You would have him say and do in this time. May he uphold his vows to defend and protect. May he know which way to turn when the path is not clear. Grant courage for him to stand up for what is right and good for all the people, including the preborn. Show him which principles are the ones you want upheld. Protect his family and loved ones. Protect him in his coming and his going. Holy Spirit, fall upon him. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
