One of the most powerful privileges we have is pursuing God. Prayer is one of primary ways we show God our worship.
As followers of Christ, we have direct access to the Lord. We can come before the throne of grace with boldness and confidence anytime we need to. We should also do this on behalf of others.
Paul encouraged Timothy to pray to the Lord on behalf of others.
”I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them. Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity.“
1 Timothy 2:1-2 NLT
One of the greatest things we can do for a someone else is pray for them. When we go before the Lord on behalf of someone else’s need, we are loving our neighbor as ourself.
Paul also encouraged Timothy to pray for “kings and all who are in authority.”
Pursue God for your national leaders as well. Pray and fast for all nations that God might bring forth a revival we so urgently need.
Pursue God on behalf of others. Jesus is worthy of the pursuit.
