Adopt A Leader
How to sign up
We have heard from elected officials they desire our prayer support because they recognize the challenge before them. In response, we launched 'Adopt a Leader in Prayer' in partnership with National Day of Prayer in December 2006. Prayer for our leaders shapes the destiny of our nation.

When you sign up for 'Adopt a Leader' you will receive a free resource packet with information on praying for your leaders. The resource packet includes a magnet with the name of your State Senator, U.S. Representatives and the Nebraska Supreme Court Justice appointed from your region, 30 Ways to Pray for a Leader and a Lifting Leaders to the Throne of God prayer card.
Adopt a Leader in Prayer, is an outreach of National Day of Prayer. We know our Leaders by the responsibility they bear. We must never forget that these influential people are also moms and dads, husbands and wives, friends and neighbors. They face the same pressures we do in trying to keep our lives in balance. Their public role also means their decisions affect many other lives in addition to their own. What would happen if all 49 senators had a person praying for them on a regular basis? 1 Timothy 2:1-2 carries a promise that if we pray for those in authority we will live in peace and godliness. Did you know that each Senator represents 35,000 people? Nebraska has 49 senators and we desire for all 49 senators to have a consistent prayer covering during the legislative session. As you hold up your leader in prayer we suggest you pray for their family, staff, safety and protection, wise mentors to assist them in office, wisdom in making decisions, courage to face adversity and their personal integrity. If God is leading you to pray for your leaders, we will send you a free resource packet.
