"I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people - for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of truth." (1 Tim. 2:1-4)
Father God,
You command us to pray with thanksgiving for those in authority. So, Lord, I thank You for Pres. Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and Donald Trump. I pray that You bless them and bless their families.
I ask that You drawn these men and this woman unto Yourself, fill them with the knowledge of truth and Your will, and empower them to walk in a manner worthy of You. In Proverbs 21:1, You say the king's heart is in Your hand to channel as You will. Please turn their hearts toward You. I pray that they cleanse themselves from all unrighteousness and grow as vessels of honor, sanctified, and meet for Your use.
I pray they will call to You and You will answer them and show them great and mighty things they do not know. I pray Obama, Clinton, and Trump will love You, obey Your voice, and hold fast to You.
I pray Your will be done on this earth as it is in heaven. Please help Your people who are called by Your name to glorify you in our thoughts, in our words, and in our actions.
I ask these things in Jesus' name, Amen and Amen.
So, beloved, are you grumbling or petitioning? "The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much." (James 5:16b)
