(OPINION) CBN – Tomorrow is runoff election day in Georgia where more than three million people have already voted. Now comes the final push to get people to the polls. Over the weekend hundreds gathered at the Georgia statehouse to march and pray for biblical values to be exalted in the Senate runoff elections.

Organizers also encouraged participants to fast until polls close and do whatever they can to help voters understand what’s at stake. With hundreds hitting the streets, circling the capitol building in downtown Atlanta, prayer march organizers made sure people understood this was not a concert or a convention, but a prayer meeting.

“And we believe in miracles,” said attendee Lauren Voyles. “We believe He parted the Red Seas, we believe that the walls of Jericho fell because believers got together, took a stand, and prayed, fasted and repented. We have to do that again as a country or we’re lost.”
