Praying for Governing Authorities Subscribe to comments to this posting

Romans 13, 1 Peter 2, and 1 Timothy 2 are quite clear. We are to support, submit, and pray for our governing authorities. As far as I can tell, we are not called to tell jokes about them, run them down, or engage in controversial debates about them. We are about something so much more than politics. Revival will take place in our country, only when we who call ourselves followers of Christ, beging to pray for those we disagree with and ask God to change them. True change will not take place in a cabinet meeting, but in a prayer meeting. Renewal won't be initiated from the White House, but from the church house. When God's people care deeply enough to really pray and seek His face, then and only then lasting change will occur.
