JohnpaulWe all know that our world is far from perfect. Every day, we see the news and we witness the problems that exist in our society. But what can we do to make a difference? One way is to pray for our leaders. Prayer is a powerful thing, and when we come together and lift up our leaders in prayer, we can make a real difference in the world.
Chronicles 7:14
As we pray for our nation, we must not forget our leaders. They need our prayers more than ever before.
The Bible tells us to pray for those in authority. In Chronicles 7:14, we read, “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
This is a powerful promise from God. When we pray for our leaders, He hears us and He will act on our behalf. He is faithful to His Word.
Prayer is one of the most powerful weapons we have against the enemy. It is a tool that we can use to change the course of history. As we intercede for our leaders, we are taking authority over the enemy’s plans and purposes for their lives.
We must not neglect to pray for our leaders. They need our prayers now more than ever before. Let us commit to praying for them daily, that God would give them wisdom, strength, and courage to lead our nation well.
1 Timothy 2:1-3
I urge, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people— for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.
Philippians 4:6-7
Paul tells us in Philippians 4:6-7 to not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present our requests to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
This is a powerful verse for us as we pray for our leaders. We can be confident that God hears our prayers and that He will give us the peace we need as we trust in Him.

Prayer for our Leaders
As we head into another political season, it’s important to remember to pray for our leaders. Whether you agree with their policies or not, they need our prayers. They have a lot of responsibility and weight on their shoulders.
Pray that they would have wisdom as they make decisions. Pray that they would be led by the Holy Spirit and have courage to stand up for what is right, even when it’s unpopular. Pray for their families, that they would be protected from the stress and scrutiny of public life.
Most of all, pray that our leaders would come to know Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. Only He can give them the strength and wisdom they need for the job.
