Presidential Prayers

I Timothy 2:1-4 - "First of all, then, I urge that entreaties and prayers, petitions and thanksgivings, be made on behalf of all men, for kings and all who are in authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity. This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth."

It matters not who we believe should be the president of the United States. It matters not if we believe Mahmoud Abbas should not be president of Palestine or whether Putin should rule over Russia. God still rules supreme over the universe and expects us to align with His choices to rule upon this earth. God uses all things to work together for His purposes.

We must never disallow His sovereignty to work through less than desirable leaders. However, we must continue to pray that these would come to the Lord. Nonetheless, whether they come or not, the ways of leaders are in the hands of the Almighty (Proverbs 21:1). He will have His way with them, beloved of God. However, we must continue to pray so we will be at peace with His conclusions.
