Prayer
Heavenly Father, I come before You today with a heart full of gratitude for the leaders You have placed in my local community. I lift up the local politicians as they gather for their meetings today. Grant them wisdom that surpasses human understanding, and guide their decisions with Your divine insight. Lord, remind them that their authority comes from You, and with it, the responsibility to serve with integrity, justice, and compassion. May they seek not their own interests, but the welfare of all people they represent, in each district by which they are serving. Fill their hearts with a spirit of collaboration and unity, breaking down any walls of division and fostering a culture of respect and mutual understanding. In moments of challenge and disagreement, let Your peace reign. Give them the courage to stand for what is right, even when it is difficult, and the humility to listen and learn from one another. Surround them with wise counsel and protect them from the snares of pride and corruption. Above all, my great Lord, may Your will be done in our community. Let Your light shine through the leaders that are in authority, illuminating the path of righteousness and justice. I trust in Your sovereign plan and commit our leaders into Your loving hands. In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.
