Day 9: Government

Read 1 Timothy 2:1–4

Scripture calls believers to pray for those in authority, recognizing God’s sovereignty over all leadership. Whether we agree with our political leaders, Scripture is clear - Pray for them. Trusting God over political outcomes frees us from anxiety and positions us as instruments of peace, justice, and gospel influence. Even one faithful prayer can shift our perspective and encourage God’s purposes in society.

 

Prayer:
Pray now for leaders to govern with wisdom and humility under God’s authority.

 

Application Point:
Pray by name for one leader or governing body today.
