Day 1

We are going to send out a prayer reminder for each day during our 40 Days of Prayer and Fasting. May this be helpful to you as you seek God's presence today.

Thursday – May 2 – Pray for our leaders in local, state, and federal governments. May they be servant leaders of integrity and godly character. May they seek to bring God’s “Kingdom come to earth as it is in heaven.” May we obey them as people sent by God to lead our governments.

"Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin condemns any people." - Proverbs 14:34
"When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; when the wicked rule, the people groan." - Proverbs 29:2

"Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave—just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” - Matthew 20:26-28
"Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God." - Romans 13:1
