Pray for our Leaders

Lord, we know that you call us to pray for all of those in authority. Help us to honor and respect those serving our nation even if we do not agree with their policies. We know that all authority was established by you and they are in their position because you allowed it. Make our nation great and let its leaders honor you in all they do.

Help them to turn their ear to wisdom and apply their hearts to understanding. We know that you will give it to them. Surround our leaders with godly counsel and direct them to lead us through the immense challenges we face both locally and nationally.

Help them to put aside their political agendas and work together for the good of the people who live in this great country. Grant them the divine wisdom to do what is right and to balance justice and mercy and, if they won’t, raise up people who will glorify you and serve you.
