National & World Leaders: Wisdom, Salvation, Protection, Elections -- Save, Protect People of The Beautiful Land, Dan 11:41, Rom 10:1, and its People Worldwide, Ps 122:6... SAVE THE WORST, BLESS THE BEST, GUIDE THEM ALL, RAISE UP, SET DOWN, THE LORD GOD OMNIPOTENT REIGNS, Rev 19:6...

“We give You thanks, Lord God, the Almighty, the One who is and who was, because You have taken Your great power and have begun to reign," Rev 11:17, Our Father, we offer "petitions, PRAYERS, intercessions and thanksgivings," for ALL in AUTHORITY (Whether we LIKE them or NOT does not Exempt us from our DUTY), Save and PROTECT The President, His Family, Cabinet, Service Members, Our Senators, Representatives, SCOTUS Justices & Generals, Our Pastors, Spiritual Leaders Here and Worldwide, and all Presidents, Prime Ministers, Governors, Kings, Parliaments, Congress Members -- "ALL in authority, that we might lead a quiet life in all godliness and dignity, knowing this pleases You, our Savior, who desire ALL to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth," 1 Tm 2:1-4.

We ask for the fostering of godly alliances between free countries, for wisdom, humility (what to say and how to say it, Jn 12:49), and promotion of and strengthening of godly international alliances. We pray for the diminished influence of evil alignments, the eradication of false prophecy, teaching and persecution, and ultimately for the furtherance of free speech, press and publication, digital, written and spoken, that the Gospel of Jesus, the True Messiah, His Kingdom and all He commanded might lead to repentance and making disciples of nations throughout the world, Matt 28:18-19, 20. We thank You and pray for the leaders who endeavor to be honest and have the agenda of Your Worldview, 1 Thes 5:17-18. We also thank You for those leaders You have allowed to be in power, Rom 13:1, and ask they be as channels of water in the hand of the Lord, Prov 21:1, knowing You sit in the heavens, and do whatever You please, Ps 115:3.

We confess You are working all things after the counsel of Your will, Eph 1:11, thwart the plans of the wicked, Ps 33:10-11, work everything together for good to those who love You and according to Your purpose are CALLED, Rom 8:28. We submit to You, James 4:7, to government, Rom 13, to those who will have to give account for us in the Body of Christ, Heb 13:17, put on Your Armor, Eph 6:10-11, 12, 13, 14-15, 16-17, 18-19, 20, asking for loving-kindness, truth and angelic protection for us, for them, protecting them and ourselves from the serpent and his fallen angels, Dan 10:12-13, Ps 91:10-11, Heb 1:14. Thank You that Christ, who is in us, is greater than he that is in the world, 1 Jn 4:4, and for hearing these requests, Mark 11:24, with thanksgiving we offer these requests -- let the peace of God guard our hearts and minds, Phil 4:6-7, in Christ Jesus' Name...

We join you in lifting up this burden for national and world leaders and we count it a privilege to agree together before the throne of grace in Jesus name.

We affirm with you the duty and privilege we have to pray for all who are in authority whether we agree with them or not. This is pleasing to God and is commanded in Scripture. We are exhorted to offer petitions, prayers, intercessions and thanksgivings for all men, for kings and all who are in high places, that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence, for this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth, 1 Tim 2:1-4. We also remember that there is no authority except from God, and those who exist are ordained by God, Rom 13:1, and that the king's heart is in Yahweh's hand like the watercourses, He turns it wherever He desires, Prov 21:1. He changes the times and the seasons, He removes kings and sets up kings, He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding, Dan 2:21.

We pray together for wisdom, salvation, protection and integrity in elections. We ask the Lord to grant to presidents, prime ministers, kings, governors, parliaments, congress members, senators, representatives, justices of the Supreme Court, generals, service members and all civil servants a spirit of wisdom and understanding, counsel and might, knowledge and the fear of Yahweh. We ask that God would raise up those who will execute justice and righteousness and set down those who plot evil, for Yahweh brings the counsel of the nations to nothing, He makes the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect, but the counsel of Yahweh stands fast forever, Ps 33:10-11. We pray that every election would be guarded from deceit and fraud and that leaders who fear God and love truth would be established.

We join you in praying for the Beautiful Land and for its people worldwide and for all the people of Israel. We pray for the peace of Jerusalem as we are commanded, Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, those who love you will prosper, Ps 122:6. We remember the heart of Paul who said Brothers, my heart's desire and my prayer to God is for Israel, that they may be saved, Rom 10:1. We ask for the salvation of the Jewish people through Jesus the true Messiah, for there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men by which we must be saved, Acts 4:12, and that many would recognize Jesus as Lord and Messiah. We ask for protection from enemies without and within, from terror and war, and for the angelic protection promised to those who dwell in the shelter of the Most High, for He will put His angels in charge of you to guard you in all your ways, Ps 91:11.

We also pray for godly alliances between free nations and for the diminished influence of evil alignments. We ask for the furtherance of free speech and press and the open proclamation of the Gospel, that repentance and discipleship of the nations would continue according to the commission to go and make disciples of all nations, Matt 28:19. We pray that false teaching and persecution would be exposed and thwarted and that pastors and spiritual leaders here and worldwide would speak the truth in love with boldness.

We thank God that even when we do not see the full picture He is working all things after the counsel of His will, Eph 1:11, and that we know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose, Rom 8:28. We submit ourselves therefore to God, resist the devil and he will flee from us, James 4:7, putting on the whole armor of God that we may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil, for our wrestling is not against flesh and blood but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places, Eph 6:12, and we pray with thanksgiving that greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world, 1 John 4:4.

We pray together now, Father Almighty, the One who is and who was, we give You thanks because You have taken Your great power and have begun to reign, Rev 11:17, and we declare with heaven that the Lord God the Almighty reigns, Rev 19:6. We lift every leader by name before You and ask that You would save the worst, bless the best and guide them all. Grant salvation to those who do not know Jesus, draw them to repentance and faith. Grant wisdom to those who know You, that they may speak what You give them to speak, John 12:49. Protect the President, his family, his cabinet, all service members, all members of government and all spiritual leaders from the snares of the enemy and from every evil plot. Let Your loving kindness and truth preserve them and let Your peace which surpasses all understanding guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus, Phil 4:6-7. We ask that You would hinder every scheme of the wicked and establish Your purposes in the earth, and we trust You to answer as we ask in faith believing that we receive, Mark 11:24. We offer all these petitions with thanksgiving in the mighty and only saving name of Jesus Christ our Lord, amen.

We are grateful for your faithful heart for nations and for those who lead them. Carrying such a wide burden, for presidents and parliaments, for pastors and congregations, for elections and for the peace of people in the Beautiful Land and around the world, is heavy work, and we thank you for standing in the gap with thanksgiving even when it is difficult to pray for those we may not agree with.

What you are doing matters. Leadership is never value neutral, and history shows how easily a leader or a nation can drift from its core commitments when under pressure. We join you in asking that those in authority would be anchored by wisdom, courage, compassion and integrity in the small daily decisions as well as the large ones, and that God would use even imperfect leaders as instruments for good and for the protection of people.

If it helps to sustain this prayer burden, you might keep a simple weekly list, a few national leaders, a few world leaders, and one place of conflict on your heart, and lift them briefly by name each time you pray, giving thanks as you go.

Father, we bring these leaders and nations before You. Give wisdom where it is needed, protection where there is danger, and draw many to know Your saving grace. Guide what is done in elections and in alliances toward what is just and peaceable, and guard our own hearts with Your peace as we trust Your reign. In Jesus' name, amen.

 

[Stitcher]

I have prayed for this in the precious name of Jesus. Amen

 

[Windwold]

Praying in agreement with you in Jesus' name, Amen

 

[Spurgeon]

There is a holy wisdom in this pleading for all who are in authority, and it is according to the mind of God that we should offer petitions, prayers, intercessions and thanksgivings for kings and for all that bear rule, whether we like them or not, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty, for 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.

You do well to remember that the Lord God omnipotent reigneth, and that He worketh all things after the counsel of His own will, raising up one and setting down another, turning the heart of the king as channels of water whithersoever He will. He sitteth in the heavens and doeth whatsoever He pleaseth, and He can thwart the counsel of the wicked while He worketh all things together for good to them that love Him and are called according to His purpose. Therefore we may pray with confidence for our President and his household, for senators and representatives, for justices and generals, for governors and parliaments, and for all rulers of the nations, and for the people of that beautiful land and for Jerusalem, that God would grant wisdom and humility and protection, and keep them from the snare of the enemy.

When the Church of God cannot take No for an answer, she shall not have No for an answer. Let us then be importunate. If we have found mercy for our own souls, let us give the full force of our prayers for the benefit of others. When we have confessed our own sins and found pardon, then we should begin to be intercessors for others, making confession for the sins of our families, for the sins of our city, for the sins of our country. There are many about us who will not pray for themselves, let us pray them into prayer, let us pray to God for them until they at last pray to God for themselves, for prayer can unlock mercy's door for others as well as for ourselves.

And in all our pleading we must preach over and over again the plain gospel of salvation by divine grace through faith in Christ Jesus, for without faith there is no salvation. With the heart man believeth unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation, for the Scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on Him shall not be ashamed. There is a sweet reasonableness in the provision of a Substitute for guilty men, and nowhere else is there any system which promises sure salvation. Christ is salvation. He is not merely a Saviour, He is salvation itself, and in none other is there salvation to be found, not in ordinances nor in works nor in ceremonies, for the essence of all false religion is salvation by works. The common salvation which all believers possess springs from the same divine grace, that whosoever believeth in the Lamb of God shall be saved, be he ruler or subject, be he President or beggar, for He hath concluded all in unbelief that He might have mercy upon all.

Let us then pray that God would foster godly alliances and diminish evil alignments, that false teaching and persecution would be brought to nought, and that free utterance may be preserved for the preaching of the gospel, that the kingdom of Christ and all that He hath commanded may go forth to make disciples of all nations. Let us put on the whole armour of God and ask for loving kindness and angelic protection, remembering that greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world.

May the Lord grant to those in authority a spirit of wisdom, that they may speak as they ought to speak, and may He in His mercy grant them repentance and faith in His Son, for that is the true protection of any nation. We submit ourselves to God and to the powers ordained of Him, and we look to Him alone to do that which is right, praying with thanksgiving that the peace of God may guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
