Today is Election Day, and we want to thank everyone who has joined our prayer calls and supported us in praying for our nation. As we focus on getting out the vote, I encourage everyone to make sure they vote, even if there are long lines—be persistent. Most importantly, volunteer to help others vote. Call your friends, family, and even your kids or grandkids to ensure they’ve cast their vote. Every voice matters at this crucial time. We will recap tomorrow and continue praying for the outcome, knowing that God has a plan for whichever leader emerges. Thank you for your faithfulness, and we’ll see you tomorrow.

 

Election Day: Get Out the Vote and Stay Persistent!

By Chris Byberg | Director, National House of Prayer


It’s the Big Day: Let’s Finish Strong

Speaking from Ottawa on Election Day, Chris Byberg shares a final encouragement for Canadians: today is the day to act. After weeks of prayer calls, gatherings in Ottawa and Toronto, and countless moments of intercession, the focus now shifts to getting out the vote.

Chris thanks everyone who has been faithfully praying and pressing in for Canada, emphasizing how crucial it is to show up and exercise your democratic voice.

“If you haven’t voted yet, go and vote. Stay in line if you have to. Be persistent.”


Practical Tips for Today

Chris gives simple but vital instructions:

  • Vote yourself if you haven’t already.

  • Volunteer to help others get to the polls.

  • Call your family and friends—make sure your kids, grandkids, and neighbors have voted too.

Every single vote matters. And every citizen has a voice that needs to be heard, especially in times like these.


Faithfulness Beyond Results

Chris also looks ahead, reminding viewers that regardless of today’s outcome—whether it’s “a boy” (an inside joke he shares warmly) or otherwise—the Church’s call remains the same:

“We will be faithful in whatever assignment the Lord gives us.”

Tomorrow, the NHOP team will release a recap video. But no matter who becomes Prime Minister, one truth stands firm: our mission to pray, intercede, and seek God’s will for Canada continues.

Daily Election Prayer Points

Pray that all eligible voters, especially believers, would feel a sense of responsibility and urgency to cast their votes.

Pray for God to remove any apathy, confusion, or distractions that might prevent people from voting.

Pray that voters would be bold and persistent, even in the face of long lines or challenges at polling stations.

Pray for discernment for those who will oversee counting and reporting the results.

Pray for accuracy and quickness in the process so the results are known without unnecessary delays.

Pray for those volunteering to help get out the vote. Pray for energy, wisdom, and protection for those working at the polls and assisting others in the process.

Pray for the Lord to heal any divisions and help the people of Canada come together regardless of the outcome.

Pray for the Lord to help the Body of Christ remain faithful to their prayer assignments, continuing to pray for the nation beyond Election Day.

Pray for wisdom and grace for the next Prime Minister, and that they would lead with humility, righteousness, and wisdom.

Pray that God’s Kingdom would continue to advance in Canada, no matter who is in leadership.

“For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.”

 Habakkuk 2:14
