A Prayer For Presidents, Prime Ministers, Pastors, Fathers

"He will bring justice to the poor of the people; he will save the children of the needy, and will break in pieces the oppressor." (Psalm 72:4)

I prayed this Psalm for President Trump today.  There is nothing in the commands to pray for governments which has an escape clause, e.g., "But if you don't like or care for him, forget it."

The Word for, "judgment," is from a Hebrew Word which means, "justice, discretion."  This is a great need of nations, and this Psalm is a powerful prayer, "for all who are in authority," by which to so govern.  Moreover, if you read all of Psalm 72, you will notice the recurring theme of, "peace," and, "righteousness," dealing with, "the oppressor," and, "abundance of grain," care for, "the poor," the disenfranchised.  Such qualities are of those who are "righteous" leaders, whether in governments, the Church, or the home.

There is an evil loose in Western Civilization which is the seed for its demise, and, it is increasing its expanse more and more rapidly.  We have been watching this concerning the Prime Minister of England, the gleeful reporting in the Western Media of her projected impending demise, as well as the same gleeful, cheer leading against President Trump.  Yesterday, someone even took to the gun in the attempt to destroy the only political party in America which even comes close to identity with Jesus Christ and His Words.  Only the prayers of Jesus' Words, the Bible have the power and authority to deal with such evil.  Yes, "Whatever you ask in My Name," Jesus tells us.  For me, it is asking what Jesus tells us He is doing in the earth. 

We vote, we write and call our representatives, yes.  But, "'If My People, who are called by My Name,' would start acting and living like, 'My People,' and stop quoting Biblical passages, but not do them, and along with their weekly, monthly, even yearly "prayer gatherings/emphasis" would take seriously day and night prayer, then I will deal with the Enemy of humanity, just as I have always done,"---------saith the Lord.

Father, in Jesus' Name, man has so many "days" of honoring various classifications of people and historic events.  I pray that Your Church will graduate beyond this, and honor and pray for all, "and never give up," and, "in His Law he meditates day and night." Amen.

One of the best articles which I have read in recent times concerning Western Civilization is on our Blog:  jhs58.blogspot.com

When Peter, an 18 year old Norwegian, "heard the call to evangelize China, on that day he not only emptied his wallet into the collection plate, but included a small note with the words, 'and my life.'"

Hebrews 12:2
