Read Lucado’s comments below:
It’s time to pray.
It’s time to pray for the leaders of our nation.
They need our prayers. The times are turbulent: economy in jeopardy, nations in conflict. How can leaders lead during a day of bail-outs and bombings? Only with God’s help.
So let’s request it. On January 20, 2009–inauguration day–set aside some minutes to pray for our incoming President. Ask God to inspire, direct and protect him. Pray for his wife and daughters. Use your worship time, family time and private time to ask God’s blessings on Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and all the men and women who serve and lead our country. It’s time to pray.
Let’s do just that.

Lucado was one of many Christian leaders who met with Obama during the presidential campaign.
Of course we should all pray for President-Elect Obama and his family. Does anybody disagree with that? Prayer works.
