A PRAYER FOR THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT

A Prayer for the American Government...

Father, in Jesus Christ’s name, I give thanks for the United States of America and its government. I hold up in prayer before You the men and the women who are in positions of authority. I pray and intercede for the President, the representatives, the senators, the judges of America, the police, as well as the governors and mayors, and for all those who are in authority over them in any way. I pray that the Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon them all.

I believe that skilful and godly wisdom has entered into the heart of their President and knowledge is pleasant to him. Discretion watches over him; understanding keeps him and delivers him from the way of evil and from evil men.

Father; I ask that You compass the President about with men and women who make their hearts and ears attentive to godly counsel and do that which is right in Your sight. I believe You cause them to be men and women of wisdom and integrity who are obedient concerning the people of America that they may lead quiet and peaceable lives in all godliness and honesty. I pray that the upright shall dwell in their government – that men and women blameless and complete in Your sight, Father, shall remain in these positions of authority; but the wicked shall be cut off from their government and the treacherous shall be rooted out of it.

Your Word declares that “blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD” (Psalm 33:12).

I pray America receives Your blessing. Father, You are their Refuge and Stronghold in times of trouble. So I declare with my mouth that the people of America will dwell safely in their land, and prosper abundantly. They are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus!

It is written in Your Word that the heart of the king is in the hand of the LORD and that You turn it whichever way You desire. I believe that the heart of the leader of America is in Your hand and that his decisions are divinely directed of the LORD. I give you thanks LORD, that the “good news” of the Gospel is published in their land. The Word of the LORD prevails and grows mightily in the hearts and lives of the people of America. I give you thanks for this blessed land and all their leaders You have given unto them, in Jesus Christ of Nazareth’s awesome name.

Jesus is LORD over the United States of America!

AMEN.
