Prayer For Barack Obama

Lord, please be with Barack Obama as he sworn in as our President today. Please let your Holy Spirit guide and protect him in making sound decisions as he leads this country. Also, Lord Jesus, help the First Family as they settle into their new roles in the White House.

In Jesus’ Name I pray,
Amen…

When Barack Obama is sworn in today, we all need to say a prayer, lift him up in God’s name as he takes the reins in the leadership of our country.

I hope everybody has a nice Inauguration Day.
