<p>Do you feel a sense of victory after this last election? If so, for many, the temptation is to sit back, rest, and cease from our contending. But, I encourage you today not to rest from your prayers, but rather to redouble your efforts.</p>

<h2>Although the American people won many victories for the cause of righteousness in this election, the enemy would love to stop our newly elected leaders from taking office.</h2>
<p>That is why we must continue to pray. Only God—the One who brought us the victories we are standing on today—can&nbsp;<em>preserve</em>&nbsp;those victories and bring people into office. In order to see that happen, we must pray.&nbsp; &nbsp;<a href="https://ifapray.org/blog/prayer-for-the-peaceful-transition-of-government/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">continue &gt;&gt;&gt;</a></p>
