Praying for Leaders

“I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; 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” (1 Timothy 2:1-3).

When was the last time you prayed for the President, Prime Minister, or leader of your country by name? Are you praying daily for the salvation of those in power over you? Scripture is very clear that we need to be specific in prayer. We tend to be very general sometimes and with one sentence cover everyone from pole to pole. God wants us to pray for individuals, by name. Let’s pray this way in connection with world leaders, and see what power there is in specific prayer.

If Christians would spend more time and energy praying for those in power, it would have a greater effect than trying to lobby against them.
