Dutch Ruppersberger (D)

Lord Jesus Christ our legislators desperately need Your help, they need Your intervention and protection from the enemy, they need Your wisdom Your holiness and Your righteousness in all they do.

Father God, again a person I do not know how to pray for; I do not know this man or his heart and soul condition, but PTL You do. I commit Representative Dutch Ruppersberger to the working of Your Holy Spirit, for the outcome of his eternal soul and his life, that he might be redeemed and that he might make a positive impact on other lives he encounters. Lord, draw him unto yourself and Your purpose for his life. Open his heart, his mind. Oh Lord, In the Name and by the power of Jesus Christ and the Spirit he gives us, we pray for this man that You would do a work in his life, in his heart that he might see Your Will and discern your direction for his life and his purpose and mission in Government. May he open his heart and mind to see You and Your guidance and not be prey to the whims and weaknesses of society, of harmful, misdirected ideologies and evil influences, that he might be discerning and wise to bad policies that are not strong or good for America and for the people. May your spirit do a powerful work throughout the halls and seats of congress. Thank you o' God for hearing our pleas and for Your blessing over America; do not withdraw it, but sweep the nation with Your Spirit.

Father, I praise You for the service of Representative Ruppersberger to our country. I pray Lord that he will be God-fearing and recognize that he is accountable to You for every decision and action he takes (Proverbs 9:10). I pray that he be granted Your wisdom and knowledge and understanding (James 1:5). I pray that he be presented with the gospel if he does not know You and a loving Christian witness (Romans 10:14). I pray Lord that if he is unsaved, he will be drawn to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ and be encouraged and grow in his faith ( 1Timothy 2:24, Ephesians 1:17-23) I pray that he will recognize his own inadequacy and pray and seek Your will (Proverbs 3:5-8). Lord convict him of sin, transgression, and iniquity (Psalm 51:17) and help him to heed his conscience, confess his sin and repent (proverbs 28:13). I pray that you give him the desire to read the bible, attend prayer meetings, and bible studies (Psalm 119:11, Colossians 3:2), Lord I pray that he values and regard the 10 commandments and the teachings of Christ (John 8:31-32). Protect his heart and mind and fill him with your joy (Nehemiah 8:10). This I pray in Jesus' Name, Amen

Lord, I pray for Dutch Ruppersberger to have a reverential fear of You and to always put You first in all of his important decisions for this Country! In Jesus' Name, Amen!

Father God, during this Christmas season our hearts are turned to you and the miraculous gift of Jesus. We pray our hearts are ready to receive this precious gift. I pray for Representative Dutch Ruppersberger - that divine wisdom and grace would be given unto him. I pray that he would be surrounded by godly men and women who will provide godly counsel. If he does not know you, I pray he would come to know you and have a personal relationship with you. Pour out Your Spirit upon him. Shower him with your goodness and put a hedge of protection about him and his family. Protect him from the influence of the evil one and teach him to trust in you. Reveal to him by Your Spirit the marvelous truth of the Gospel. Give him discretion, foresight and understanding in making decisions. Grant him a heart of compassion toward those he leads and serves. Help him, like Jesus to love righteousness and hate lawlessness. Help him to have the courage to do the right thing even when urged to do the wrong thing. In Jesus name, Amen.

Father, in the name of Jesus, we take our place of intercession over the United States of America. We plead the blood of Jesus over this land, humbly repenting and beseeching You to shower blessings over us, by Your mercy and kindness. Father God I lift up prayer to each representative that if they have nor accepted Jesus as their personal savior that they will accept Him do that will have eternal life with our Father. God loves you and is waiting.
