Prayer for Those In Authority

1st Timothy 2

1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

Father, we take this moment to pray, intercede, and thank You for those who are in authority. 

God, please bless the spirit, soul, and body of Donald Trump, Mark Carney, and Claudia Sheinbaum. Bless them with life, health, wisdom, and strength. Bless them going in and going out; bless their families; bless their administration; bless them as they travel throughout their nation and throughout the world. Lord, we ask that Your blessings also be upon the administrative workers who work directly and indirectly with these leaders, in the name of Jesus.

Father, we acknowledge that we are living in the last days, and evil has increased in countless ways. Men are quick to kill, steal, and destroy; faithfulness in the home and churches is difficult to find; people are becoming lovers of their own will and desires rather than lovers of God's will and His desire; the love of money has provoked roots of evil in the heart of people around the globe, and false teachers rise to call evil good and good evil in order to remove the fear of the Lord from the conscious of many. Therefore, we ask You to give these leaders an understanding heart of wisdom to discern between good and bad. Give them knowledge to lead, reprove, exhort, and proclaim laws that will produce order and decency throughout the land, in Jesus' name.

Father, Your word says what does it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Dear Lord, we lift up Donald Trump apart from his riches and leadership; we lift up Mark Carney apart from his riches and leadership, and we lift up Claudia Sheinbaum apart from her riches and leadership. We ask that You penetrate any blindness from pride, riches, lust, or selfishness within them, and draw their soul to the light of Your salvation, for You are KING of kings and LORD of lords. King Solomon, the wisest earthly king, once said that all is vanity. Dear God, we pray that You will open the eyes of these leaders to see that all their accomplishments are vanity when they leave this earth, and that the conclusion of their life should be to fear God and call on the name of Jesus to save their soul. This we pray for these leaders, their families, and the people working under them, in Jesus' name. 

Father God, we also take a moment to pray for the soul of the rest of the leaders of the world. Father, we ask that You turn their heart in the direction that You will have them to go according to Your divine plan before the foundation of this earth was laid. Father, have mercy on their soul and bless them with the fear of the Lord that they might become wise leaders, for it is written that the people rejoice when the righteous is in authority, but they mourn when the wicked bear rule. Father, I am asking You to touch the heart of the leaders not for their own righteousness, but for the sake that Your people might live a quiet and peaceable life in godliness, in Jesus' name. Amen. 

Dear God, we pray for your mercy on the souls that are directly and indirectly in the midst of these wars.

Father, we ask that You release Your ministering angels to go forth and minister salvation, hope, life, and light to the souls in these countries.

God, we know that wars are a great opportunity for the devil to destroy souls, so we pray You will pour out Your spirit of mercy upon the souls in the midst of the attacks and the souls that will be in the midst of the retaliation.

Father God, be with Your children according to Your word which says that You will be with us even in the valley of the shadow of death.

As for those souls that do not believe that You are the Savior, we can only pray for mercy that their natural lives be spared and their time on earth be extended with the hope that they will come to knowledge of the truth that Jesus is Lord, King, Judge and Savior of the world.

This we ask and pray in Jesus' name, amen.

Father, in the name of Jesus,

We pray for the families of the soldiers that are in these wars.

No matter how strong, wise, brave or loyal these soldiers are, they are still somebody's -

Child - Spouse - Parent - Friend - and most importantly, each of them is A Living Soul.

Dear God, let Your peace which surpasses all understanding keep the hearts and minds of the families who are constantly wondering and hoping that these soldiers are alive and well.

Dear God, please be a shield for these families.

Shield them from stress, depression, trauma, and life changing news. 

Let the soldiers in this war be restored to their home in good health and mind in Jesus' name.
