God and Country

“Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. For 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. For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time, for which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle—I am speaking the truth in Christ and not lying—a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.” 1 Timothy 2:1-7

What every country needs is leadership by those who do pray–and that would also be leadership by those who follow what the Bible has to say. The beginning of wisdom, it states, comes by the fear of the Lord; therefore, leaders of any country should desire that He be on board.

So, as we pray for the U.S.A., we intercede for God’s protection, from our enemies and from legislation that wouldn’t be of His direction. We pray that the light of Christ will shine into every person’s heart–especially those in leadership roles, so that our liberties won’t depart.

P. A. Oltrogge

“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; A good understanding have all those who do His commandments.  His praise endures forever.”  Psalm 111:10 NKJV; also Proverbs 1:7 and Proverbs 9:10

“Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.”
2 Corinthians 3:17 NKJV
