🌎🌍🌏 God Rules Nations, Restrains Evil, Dan 10:13, Guides Leaders, 1 Tim 2:1-2, Salvation, 1 Tim 2:3-4...

[Nochaeld]

Father, Restrain Evil, We Pray FOR ALL in Authority, 1 Tim 2:1-2, SALVATION in Jesus' Name, 3, 4... Father -- You are Sovereign, "having made from one man all the nations of the earth, determining BOTH their APPOINTED TIMES and EXACT BOUNDARIES of their habitation, Acts 17:26. "Surely the nations are as a drop in a bucket, regarded as the small dust of a balance," Isa 40:15.

Lifting this burden to YOU asking YOU to restrain the evil one over Several Unruly Countries at present, asking You intercept evil plans, sovereignly, as Elisha heard the king of Syria and related it to Israel, in 2 Kings 6:12, and how David knew evil had been intended against him by Saul, 1 Sam 20:3, 9, 27-28, 29-30, 31-32, 33-34, 35-36, 37-38, 39-40, 41-42.

Bind the spirit of retaliation over these countries, Dan 10:12-13, 14. Please back the evil one off of their leaders and strategists, even using praise and worship, 1 Sam 16:23, Ps 149, Ps 149, Ps 150, et cetera, "From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the NAME of The LORD shall be praised," Ps 113:3.

Lead us, our country and our leaders not into temptation, but rather deliver them from evil, Mt 6:13, for we are not ignorant of the devil's schemes, 2 Cor 2:11, a murderer from the beginning and a liar by nature, Jn 8:44.

May the Church ACTUALLY be Your Helpmeet, Gen 2:18, imitating God, Eph 5:1, SINCE YOU EVER LIVE TO MAKE INTERCESSION, Heb 7:25, Jesus Christ, the visible image of the invisible God, Col 1:15, John 14:9. "We heard of Jesus of Nazareth, how He went about doing GOOD and HEALING -- ALL -- who were oppressed by the devil, for You were with Him," Acts 10:38-39, 40, 41, said Peter, who was strictly prohibited to bear false witness, as were all the apostles, Ex 20:16, and as we are too called to be a Holy Nation, and Royal Priesthood, 1 Pet 2:9. We also shall do the works He did, Mt 21:21, Mk 11:23-24, Jn 14:12, in prayer and whatever else He shows us, Jn 15:7.

Spoil the evil one's plans and tactics until they only conform to Your exact will -- and since these things are beyond our limitations, we at least make them the subject of our prayers, confessing our sins and the sins of our nation, Dan 9:20, 1 Tim 2:1-2, 3, 4. Restrain the evil one with a great chain even now in part, Dan 20:2, knowing the fullness will one day be a sight to behold, Luke 10:18, nevertheless thank You for authority, Lk 10:19, but since the devil is temporary, we more gladly rejoice in the things that accompany salvation, Lk 10:20. Thank You in Jesus' Name.

We come before the throne of grace with hearts burdened for the nations, lifting up this cry for divine intervention in the affairs of the world. Heavenly Father, You alone rule over the kingdoms of men, setting up kings and removing them according to Your perfect will. You have declared, *"The Most High rules in the kingdom of men, and gives it to whomever He will"* (Daniel 4:17). We acknowledge that the nations are but a drop in the bucket to You, yet You care deeply for every soul within them.

We stand in the gap, pleading for Your sovereign hand to restrain the evil one and his schemes in the unruly nations of our time. Just as You revealed the plans of the king of Syria to Elisha, we ask You to intercept and expose every wicked plot against Your people and the innocent. *"For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places"* (Ephesians 6:12). Bind the spirit of retaliation that fuels cycles of violence, and let Your peace reign where chaos seeks to dominate.

Father, we pray for the leaders of these nations, that You would turn their hearts toward righteousness. *"I exhort therefore, that first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men; for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth"* (1 Timothy 2:1-4). May they seek Your wisdom rather than the counsel of the wicked, and may Your Spirit convict them of sin, righteousness, and judgment.

We also lift up the Church, calling her to rise as Your true helpmeet, a holy nation and royal priesthood. Too often, we have been silent or distracted, failing to imitate Christ in word and deed. Forgive us, Lord, and stir within us a passion for prayer, worship, and action. As You ever live to make intercession, empower us to do the works You did—healing the sick, setting captives free, and proclaiming the good news of salvation. *"Most assuredly I tell you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to My Father"* (John 14:12).

We confess that we are not ignorant of the devil’s devices, for he is a liar and a murderer from the beginning. Yet we take heart, for You have given us authority over all the power of the enemy. *"Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you"* (Luke 10:19). Even now, we ask You to spoil his plans, turning his tactics into opportunities for Your glory. May the praise of Your people rise like a fragrant offering, driving back the darkness and inviting Your presence to dwell among us.

We rejoice in the salvation You have provided through Jesus Christ, the visible image of the invisible God. There is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). We pray for the lost in these nations, that their eyes would be opened to the truth of the gospel. May they turn from idols and false gods to serve the living God, who alone can satisfy their souls.

Finally, Lord, we thank You for the promise that one day, the evil one will be cast into the lake of fire, and every knee will bow before You. Until then, we will stand firm in faith, praying without ceasing, and trusting in Your unfailing love. *"The Lord is not slow concerning His promise, as some count slowness; but is patient toward you, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance"* (2 Peter 3:9). Strengthen us to be faithful ambassadors of Your kingdom, shining Your light in the darkness.

In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
