Bible Reading: 1 Tim. 2:1-2
“1 Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, 2 for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.”
INTERCEDE FOR OUR LEADERS
Leadership is ordained by God. It’s a mantle of responsibility which can’t be achieved without the help of God. Leaders are meant to carryout the plan of God over their subjects. They have the authority to do whatever they desire at any point in time. Still, leaders are human. They have advisers who can miss lead or guide them aright. They all need our intercession daily.
Apostle Paul said, we need to intercede for them in order to live a peaceful live. King Solomon said,
“1 The king’s heart is in the hand of the LORD, Like the rivers of water; He turns it wherever He wishes.” Prov.21:1
This can only happen through intercession. The Lord will not just turn the heart of leaders without intersession. We need to intercede for them to work in our favour, to carry out the plans of God and not of their own desire
Nigeria leaders needs intercession. We need to intercede in our individual homes and not lay curses on them. We need to hand them over to God to turn their heart the way He, God, wants.
Father, we handover our leaders to you. You know about their reigns. You knew how they become and what they are doing. We intercede for every leader in Nigeria, that you will touch their heart, turn their heart to you and change their desires to be in line with your own desire, in Jesus Mighty Name we pray, Amen.
