Prayer 25: For Our Government Leaders

1 Timothy, Intercession: Life and Leadership

Gracious Father, we kneel before you, our Great King and Glorious Lord. May the name of Jesus be raised high above all as we navigate our life journey. 

We urgently wish to bring petitions, prayers, intercession, and thanksgiving as we pray for all people. We particularly pray for our nation. We pray for our President along with our other federal, state, and local government authorities, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. We know this is good, and pleases Christ our Savior, who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. We know that there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, and we are so thankful he gave himself as a ransom for all people. This has now been witnessed to at the proper time.

Father, your foundation is solid, and our calling is clear. Keep our eyes on the prize found in Christ alone, and may we reflect hope revealed through His glory, honor, love, and power. 

In Christ, 

Blessings!

I Timothy 2:1-6
1 I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people 2 for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. 3 This is good, and pleases God our Savior, 4 who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. 5 For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, 6 who gave himself as a ransom for all people. This has now been witnessed to at the proper time. 

The Holy Spirit assured that the disciples would never be out of Christ’s sight, never distant to His wisdom and protective hand, and never away from His love and companionship. (Pg. 94- Mistaken Identity)
