It came up in Sunday School yesterday that people should pray for our leaders, namely our President, to make wise choices in regards to health care and other issues - I whole-heartedly agree that as Christians we should pray for our leaders. I know personally I have trouble praying good things for some people sometimes - especially when they dog you in your Sunday school class about health care -jk-
If you truly want to pray good things for our President - here is my suggestion - Try praying for his pastors
Lieut. Carey Cash – Camp David – Obama’s Church Pastor - When Obama attends Church, this is who preaches.
Kirbyjon Caldwell and T.D. Jakes – Obama’s Personal Ministers - These men pray with Obama at least once per month
Otis Moss Jr., Joel Hunter, Vashti McKenzie – Obama’s Policy Advisers in regards to spiritual things - part of his cabinet - regular access to Obama.
Cash, Caldwell, Jakes and Moss Jr., all went to Southern Baptist Seminary Schools - Caldwell and Jakes are from Texas, Cash served in Iraq, where he reportedly baptised 60 Marines.
Do I think that this is a publicity stunt to encourage people to believe that Obama is now lockstep with the conservative Christians? Sure I do, but that doesn't change the fact that it sounds like he has allowed some Christian men into his life, even if it is a very small part of his life.
Pray that these men will be true to their faith, and will turn the heart of their leader towards God.
