Habakkuk 2:2&3 Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald
may run with it. For the revelation awaits an appointed time, it speaks of the end and will
not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay.

Prayer
Upon unanimous consent request of Representative Miller (Doug), the prayer of Reverend Merck was ordered printed in full as follows:
“Almighty Father God, Creator of heaven and earth and all that is therein.
In your mercies and faithfulness that are forever with us, we pray that Your hand of goodness will govern in Oklahoma and America.
May righteousness, truth, and justice prevail, be victorious, in every decision of the counsel and law that this honorable and wise assembly considers. May their will and vote be Your will and vote, O Lord. May they act wisely knowing that righteousness exalts and prospers a state and a nation.
Father-God, if the foundations of law and order collapse, what can the righteous do? Therefore, may Oklahoma and these honorable and wise leaders have a strong and sure foundation principle in executing law and order.
As these honorable leaders whom You have chosen lead this state, may they commit everything they do to You, and trust You knowing You will help them, and with Your help Oklahoma will do mighty things.
O Lord, may Oklahoma be delivered from destruction and famine and poverty and plagues. Bring this state to great abundance.
May the government of Oklahoma rest upon Messiah’s shoulders. Lord, be honored in and by Oklahoma. Thy Kingdom come and Thy will be done. For Yours, O Lord, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty.
In Jesus’ Name we pray. Amen.”
