God Rules Nations, Restrains Evil Dan 10:13, Save, Guide, Appoint, Remove Leaders, Ps 75:7, Free Speech & Press Promotes Gospel, 1 Tim 2:1-4... Father -- Thank You for being 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, especially sharing the gospel and making disciples, teaching obedience to ALL You commanded, Matt 28:18-20, Mark 16:15-16, Luke 24:46-48, John 20:21, Acts 1:8.

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 heavy for the nations, yet anchored in the unshakable truth of God’s sovereignty. You, O Lord, have indeed established the boundaries of the earth and the times appointed for all peoples (Acts 17:26). The nations are but a drop in the bucket before You (Isaiah 40:15), yet in Your mercy, You hear the cries of Your people and intervene in the affairs of men. We stand on the promise that You rule over the kingdoms of this world, setting up kings and removing them according to Your perfect will (Daniel 2:21, Psalm 75:7).

Father, we lift up the unruly nations before You, asking that You restrain the evil one and his schemes. Just as You revealed the plans of the king of Syria to Elisha (2 Kings 6:12) and exposed Saul’s intentions to David (1 Samuel 20), we ask that You intercept and frustrate every evil plot against Your people and Your purposes. Bind the spirit of retaliation that fuels cycles of violence and hatred (Daniel 10:12-13), and let the light of Your truth pierce the darkness of deception. We declare that no weapon formed against Your people shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we ask that You turn the counsel of the wicked into foolishness (Psalm 33:10).

Lord, we pray for the leaders of these nations, that You would back the evil one away from them. As David’s harp drove away the distressing spirit from Saul (1 Samuel 16:23), we ask that the power of praise and worship would break every chain of darkness over their minds and hearts. Let the name of Jesus be exalted from the rising of the sun to its setting (Psalm 113:3), and may Your glory displace every lying spirit that seeks to control the affairs of men. We plead the blood of Jesus over these leaders, that they would be delivered from the snares of the enemy and led into the paths of righteousness for Your name’s sake.

We also recognize the role of the Church in this hour. You have called us to be Your helpmeet (Genesis 2:18), a holy nation and royal priesthood (1 Peter 2:9), imitating Christ in all things (Ephesians 5:1). You ever live to make intercession for us (Hebrews 7:25), and we take up that mantle in prayer, standing in the gap for the nations. Just as Jesus went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil (Acts 10:38), we ask that You would empower Your Church to do the same—through prayer, through proclamation of the gospel, and through acts of love and justice. May we be a people who walk in the authority You have given us (Luke 10:19), yet always remembering that our greatest joy is not in the temporary victory over evil, but in the eternal salvation found in Christ alone (Luke 10:20).

Father, we confess our own sins and the sins of our nations before You. We have not always sought Your face or walked in Your ways. Forgive us, and cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). We pray for our leaders, that You would grant them wisdom, humility, and a heart to seek You (1 Timothy 2:1-4). May they govern with justice and righteousness, and may the gospel of Your kingdom advance unhindered through free speech and a free press, as men and women are given the opportunity to hear and respond to the truth.

We ask that You spoil the plans of the evil one, turning his tactics into opportunities for Your glory. Where there is division, bring unity in Christ. Where there is hatred, pour out Your love. Where there is deception, let Your truth prevail. And where there is oppression, raise up deliverers who will stand in the gap. We trust in Your sovereignty, knowing that even the wrath of man will praise You, and the remainder of wrath You will restrain (Psalm 76:10).

We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone has the name above every name (Philippians 2:9-11). There is no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12), and it is only through Him that we have access to You, our Heavenly Father. May Your kingdom come, and Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Amen.

We join our hearts in agreement with your prayer, dear brother/sister. Indeed, our God reigns over the nations, and His sovereignty is our refuge and strength. As You have determined the boundaries and appointed times for all peoples, we trust in Your wisdom and goodness.

We echo your cry for the restraining of the evil one and his schemes. Like a mighty warrior, we ask that You would bind the spirit of retaliation and turn the hearts of our leaders towards righteousness. May Your truth and light pierce the darkness and deception that seeks to blind the minds of those in authority.

We also lift up the Church, Your Bride, asking that You would empower us to be Your hands and feet in the earth. May we be a people who walk in love, humility, and unity, shining the light of the Gospel in a dark world. Help us to be Your witnesses, making disciples and teaching them to obey all that You have commanded.

Father, we confess our own sins and the sins of our nations before You. Forgive us, cleanse us, and help us to walk in a manner worthy of our calling. We pray for our leaders, that You would grant them wisdom, humility, and a heart to seek You. May they govern with justice and righteousness, and may the Gospel of Your kingdom advance unhindered.

In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
