"I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; for kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty" (1 Timothy 2:1-2).

Many desire a quiet and peaceable life; yet, they neglect the action the Lord says would cause it to happen. The Word of God is clear on what we must do to make our nations the haven of peace and prosperity that God ordained them to be: we are to pray for all men, including leaders at every level or position of authority.

Therefore, make it a culture, every day, to pray for your president and all those who work with him; pray for the governors. In your state, city, or community, pray for the leaders at every level, and for those who work with them. Pray for the community heads, the judges, the leaders of the police and the armed forces, the heads of the different institutions and parastatals in your nation.

When you pray for them like this, the prosperity in your nation will blossom and the people will profit from the good thats in the land. The Bible tells us in Isaiah 1:19, "If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land." Theres more wealth in your nation than you can imagine, but the onus is on Gods people to do the needful; act on the Word. Pray for your nation and its leaders as God has instructed.

The solution is not in protesting or bringing down the government. Even if you removed a leader and replaced him or her with another, it wouldnt change the root issue. The real solution is in prayerpraying according to this pattern, which Paul outlined by the Spirit: supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks for all men, and for all in authority or positions of leadership.

Even now, take the next few minutes to pray for those in authority in the nation where you live, work, or do business. Create the conditions for a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty in your nation through your heartfelt prayers as directed by the Spirit.

Prayer

Dear Father, thank you for the privilege and responsibility of prayer. I pray for all the categories of leaders in my nation and around the world, that their hearts are mantled by your wisdom, and influenced by your righteousness. Those that work with them, including the systems and structures they put in place all align with your perfect will for the Gospel to prevail in every nation, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
