As Election Day draws near, Willow Creek Community Church in South Barrington, IL is on a mission to encourage the next President of the United States.

It’s all part of a teaching series called “Prayers for the Next President,” and includes a letter-writing campaign with congregants writing prayers in the form of letters to whoever is elected president on Nov. 5.

Author and Teaching Pastor Megan Fate Marshman is heading up the series.

“I remember when the idea was pitched,” Marshman told CBN News. “We found ourselves thinking about what God’s Word leads us to do, which I’ll tell you where this came from, 1 Timothy chapter 2: ‘I urge you then first of all that petitions, prayers, intercession, thanksgiving be made for all’ – here it is – ‘all people.’ Not just those you agree with.”

She added, “‘For kings’ – and it gets specific – ‘and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful’ – that’s the external –  ‘and quiet’ – that’s the internal – ‘lives in all godliness and holiness.’ And so, we thought if our goal is to reach the world, and our government does that, then that should be one of the foremost places that we pray.”

“The powerfulness of prayer is not just useful for us to want to see God move. I think it’s also useful for what God does when we consider someone, in God’s presence. Because obviously God loves that person,” said Marshman.

“Having someone in that position, holding that type of pressure and having half the world hate you. Man, they’re gonna need prayer to hold the mantle to which, here’s the big surprise, God has entrusted for them to carry,” Marshman explained.
