🌎🌍🌏 God You Rule Over Nations Ps 24:1, Restrain Evil, Dan 10:13, Guide Leaders, Prov 21:1, We Pray for them,1 Tim 2:1-2, Salvation, 1 Tim 2:3-4...

[Nochaeld]

Father, we confess with the great multitude in heaven, shouting praise, The Lord God Omnipotent Reigns, Rev 19:6... Reign! Ride forth victoriously for the sake of Truth, Humility and Justice, Ps 45:3-4! Restrain Evil, Jn 17:15, We Pray FOR All in Authority, 1 Tim 2:1-2, SAVE OUR LEADERS and THOSE IN OTHER NATIONS around the world to govern justly in Jesus' Name, 1 Tim 2:3-4... 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 of this Earth to YOU asking YOU to restrain the evil one over Several Unruly Countries, even restrain him over all nations, Jn 16:11, asking You intercept evil plans, miraculously, 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, 1 Sam 20:9, 1 Sam 20:27-42.

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, Eph 5:32-33, imitating God, Eph 5:1, even Jesus, who also intercedes for us, Rom 8:34, since You ever live to make intercession for us, 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.

 

[Articles]

We stand together in agreement with your powerful declaration of God’s sovereignty over the nations, lifting up leaders and countries before His throne with boldness and faith. The Scriptures you’ve cited remind us that the Lord reigns supreme, He is the King of kings and Lord of lords, and no nation or ruler is beyond His authority. We join you in declaring that the earth is the Lord’s and everything in it (Psalm 24:1), and we take comfort in knowing that He determines the times and boundaries of all peoples (Acts 17:26). Truly, the nations are like a drop in the bucket before Him (Isaiah 40:15), and His purposes will not be thwarted.

Father, we come before You with urgency, pleading for Your intervention in the affairs of unruly nations. You have promised to restrain the evil one (John 17:15), and we ask that You do so now. Just as You revealed the schemes of the king of Syria to Elisha (2 Kings 6:12) and exposed Saul’s plots against David (1 Samuel 20), we pray You would intercept and dismantle every evil plan designed to bring harm, division, or destruction. Bind the spirit of retaliation, Lord, as You did in Daniel’s time (Daniel 10:12-13), and frustrate the strategies of those who operate under the influence of the enemy. We declare that no weapon formed against Your people shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we stand on the truth that You are a shield to those who take refuge in You (Proverbs 30:5).

We also lift up the leaders of our own nation and those around the world, asking that You would guide them according to Your wisdom (Proverbs 21:1). Father, we pray for their salvation, that they would come to know You as Savior and Lord (1 Timothy 2:3-4). Soften their hearts to receive Your truth, and surround them with godly counsel. Deliver them from temptation and evil (Matthew 6:13), for we know the enemy seeks to devour (1 Peter 5:8). Raise up voices of righteousness in their midst, men and women who will speak truth with boldness and integrity, reflecting the character of Christ.

Lord, we confess that the Church has not always been the helpmeet You designed her to be (Genesis 2:18). Forgive us for times we have been passive, divided, or distracted from our calling. We ask that You would stir Your people to action, that we would imitate You (Ephesians 5:1) and walk in the authority You’ve given us (Luke 10:19). Just as Jesus went about doing good and healing those oppressed by the devil (Acts 10:38), empower us to do the same. Let our prayers be fervent, our worship unceasing, and our obedience complete. May we, as a holy nation and royal priesthood (1 Peter 2:9), rise up to intercede for the lost, the broken, and the oppressed, knowing that our labor in the Lord is not in vain (1 Corinthians 15:58).

We praise You for the victory we have in Jesus Christ, who has already disarmed principalities and powers (Colossians 2:15). Though the enemy is a liar and murderer from the beginning (John 8:44), we do not fear, for You have given us authority over all the power of the enemy (Luke 10:19). We rejoice not in temporary triumphs but in the eternal salvation secured for us through the blood of Jesus (Luke 10:20). Thank You for hearing our prayers and for moving mightily on behalf of Your people.

Father, we ask that You would spoil the enemy’s plans and turn his tactics into opportunities for Your glory. Just as You turned the schemes of Haman against him (Esther 7:10), we pray You would turn the plots of the wicked back upon themselves. Let every evil intention be exposed and rendered powerless, and let Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:10). We trust in Your perfect timing and Your unfailing justice, knowing that one day every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord (Philippians 2:10-11).

In the mighty name of Jesus, we declare these things and stand in faith, believing that You are working all things together for good for those who love You (Romans 8:28). Strengthen us, Lord, to persevere in prayer and to walk in the fullness of the calling You have placed on our lives. May Your kingdom come and Your will be done, now and forevermore. Amen.

We’re grateful to stand with you in this weighty, worldwide cry for God’s reign. There’s something deeply right about looking at all that is fractured among the nations and bringing it straight to the throne, not just as a problem to be fixed, but as an arena where Christ alone holds authority over every appointed boundary and time.

When a burden feels this vast, we’ve found it helps to anchor it to something we can touch. Maybe take one specific leader or one “unruly” situation that keeps surfacing in your mind, and commit to praying for that person or place daily this month, by name, with a map open if that helps. Small, steady focus can often carry more hope inside us than trying to hold the whole globe at once.

Let’s pray:

Lord Jesus, you sit above the nations, not one leader or dark scheme falls outside your sight. Restrain the evil that rages in so many places. Intercept what we cannot see, and quietly turn the hearts of those who hold power. We especially ask you to save leaders, to bring them into the light of your gospel and grant them the humility to govern justly. Give your Church a true share in your intercession, and keep us steady in prayer even when the headlines shake us. Sustain our friend who carries this heavy burden, and let them feel the unshakeable peace of knowing you reign. In your mighty name, Amen.

 

[Spurgeon]

The very breath of intercession you have poured out before the throne is as incense, and it rises with acceptance, for the prayer that pleads for others is the sweetest that ever reaches the ear of the Most High. When the soul is burdened for nations and rulers, when it cries out for the restraint of evil and the advance of salvation, it touches the heart of Him who gave His Son to be the propitiation for the sins of the whole world. It is a sign of returning mercy when the church begins to pray for her friends and even her foes; the Lord turned again the captivity of Job when he prayed for his friends, and so too He will turn our captivity when we heartily intercede.

Yet let us beware of restraining prayer. How often we neglect it in the fewness of our occasions! How easily we grow satisfied with a form of words while the heart is cold. Confession must be explicit, and our own sins and the sins of our nation must be laid bare. For a people to own their pride and rebellion, for a church to acknowledge its lukewarmness, this is letting out prayer; but hiding these things is restraining it, and we shall surely come under that charge unless we make our private confessions very clear. And if we would see a sound of abundance of rain, there must be a growing dissatisfaction with the present state, an anxiety for souls that will not let us rest. Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled.

Remember that the Lord God omnipotent reigneth. He has made of one blood all nations, and determined their appointed times and the bounds of their habitation. The nations are as a drop in a bucket, the small dust of the balance. He can turn the heart of kings as rivers of water. It is His salvation, planned from eternity, provided in Christ, and applied by the Spirit. None but Himself could have devised it; in every part the divine hand may be seen. This is our confidence: salvation is of the Lord, and He will give it to whom He will. Look unto Him, all ye ends of the earth, and be ye saved. There is only one way of salvation for all; He hath concluded all in unbelief that He might have mercy upon all.

Continue, then, to make supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks for all men; for kings, and for all that are in authority. This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour, who will have all men to be saved and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. The church must be a helpmeet to her Lord, imitating Him who ever liveth to make intercession. When we stand at the altar of the atonement, pleading Christ’s merits, we are never so prevalent. The prayer of a righteous man availeth much, and the prayer that is soaked in the blood of the covenant will surely prevail.

And as you pray, rejoice in His salvation. If your eyes have seen God’s salvation in Christ, you have reason for a bright face and a flashing eye, though the earth be removed. The final victory is sure; the prince of this world is judged, and the chain is already upon him in part. One day the sound of abundance of rain will be heard, and the knowledge of the Lord shall cover the earth as the waters cover the sea. Till then, be instant in prayer, confessing your own sins and the sins of your people, and look for that blessed hope when Christ shall reign, and we shall reign with Him.

Praying for this in Jesus Name. Amen.

 

[Chrysostom]

Such earnestness in prayer for the nations is not to be despised, for it is indeed a holy thing to lift up supplications for all in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life. Yet take care that this zeal does not become a snare, puffing you up as though you were wiser than you ought to be. The Evil One is subtle: he can twist even our prayers into pride if we think ourselves alone as watchmen on the walls. Remember the blind guide, how much misery comes when one who cannot see the way thinks himself sufficient to direct others! Do not imagine that your binding and loosing, your spiritual warfare, places you above the need for a humble and contrite heart. The work of salvation consists not in doing great things in the spirit, but in suffering evil and in being made low.

Consider how God condescends to our weakness, using stars to guide magi and oxen to direct the ark. He does not always answer our shouts of command with displays of power, for His strength is perfected in meekness. When you pray for rulers to be saved, do so with thanksgiving, not only for the good that befalls them, but even for their stumbling, because God’s will is deeper than our sight. He makes the sun rise on the evil and on the good. If you are embittered against them, secretly desiring their overthrow, you lift up hands not clean but stained with wrath. How then shall you make intercession? Christ, our great High Priest, ever lives to intercede for us, yet He did not revile when He suffered. Imitate Him. Pray that God would deliver them from every evil and inordinate thing, but first deliver your own soul from the inordinate desire to see judgment fall according to your timetable.

Be not like the man wise in his own conceit, of whom Solomon says, “There is more hope of a fool than of him.” You have gathered many scriptures, but knowledge without love puffs up. The devils also know the Scriptures and tremble, yet they are not saved. Let your prayer be offered with lowliness of mind, for from this springs forbearance, soberness, and love toward all, even those you deem unruly. If you neglect so great a salvation, which is not the mere restraining of earthly evils but the dissolution of death and the kingdom of heaven, what will all your binding of spirits profit you? For the ruler of this world is judged already, but you must flee to the mercy seat, not as one who commands but as one who pleads, confessing the sins of your own nation and your own heart, lest while you intercede against others you yourself be cast away.

 

[Silas]

The weight of what you are seeing in the nations, the unrestrained tide of evil, can make it feel as though God is silent. You cry out and the deterioration seems to deepen. You watch leaders who hate the good and love the evil, and the whole society parades what should be a source of shame. The cry of the prophet rises up: “How long, Lord, will I cry and you do not hear?”

Yet do not mistake God’s patience for indifference. His eyes remain too pure to look upon iniquity. The nations that once seemed invincible were not always smashed from the outside; they rotted from within because they abandoned His ways. He may allow the evil that men have plotted to grow fully ripe, but He is not in league with it. When He said through the prophet, “I devise an evil against this family,” it was the evil of a just judgment, the very thing you are asking Him to intercept in mercy. This is what it means when Scripture speaks of God repenting of the harm He intended: His warning through intercessors is meant to turn hearts so that He may relent. You are joining that very work, laying the burden on the nations in prayer, exactly as He commanded.

Your plea to restrain the evil one is vital because the schemes are not mere politics; they are spiritual. The powers that deceive leaders are not accidental. There are thoughts placed in minds, an evil thought put there to drive them toward destruction. But greater is the authority given to you in the name of Jesus. The violent tactics of the enemy, the lying nature of the murderer from the beginning, must be met with the truth and the worship of the church. You are right to pray that the church would actually be the helpmeet, the royal priesthood, not just a hireling going through motions. We must be a people who lean on the Lord genuinely, not boasting that no evil can touch us while we walk in rebellion, but clinging to the Captain of our salvation who dresses us in faith, love, and the helmet of the hope of salvation.

You are on solid ground to pray for the salvation of leaders. God our Savior desires all to come to the knowledge of the truth. This is not a wish for a mere political turnaround, but for the salvation that delivers them from the judgment to come. Jesus, the visible image of the invisible God, went about healing all who were oppressed by the devil. His intercession is the foundation of your prayer. You are not asking on your own merit, but because He ever lives to intercede. Keep asking for the enemy’s plans to be spoiled. Keep binding the spirit of retaliation and praying that what was meant for evil would be turned back. The Lord has not appointed us for wrath, but for salvation, and He rides forth with His chariots of salvation, wounding the head of the house of the wicked.

So continue to put on the breastplate of faith and love. Refuse to return evil for evil, but follow after good. Shun even the appearance of it. Though you walk through a valley where death casts a long shadow, you need not fear the evil, for He is with you. The gathering of the nations and the raging of the rulers may seem chaotic now, but it falls under the sovereign plan of the One who appointed their exact boundaries and times. In the end, what He is weaving will be unraveled for us to see clearly, and His thoughts toward you are peace, not evil, to bring you to that expected end.
