00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:09.160
Father, I pray for the leaders you have placed in positions of influence, both in my country

2
00:00:09.160 --> 00:00:12.360
and in my community and around the world.

3
00:00:12.360 --> 00:00:17.920
Whether in government, business, education, or ministry, I ask that you give them wisdom,

4
00:00:17.920 --> 00:00:20.360
discernment, and humility.

5
00:00:20.360 --> 00:00:25.840
Let them seek truth and justice, making decisions that serve people well rather than furthering

6
00:00:25.840 --> 00:00:27.800
personal gain.

7
00:00:27.800 --> 00:00:32.960
Separate them from pride, greed, and corruption, and surround them with wise advisors who will

8
00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:35.020
encourage integrity.

9
00:00:35.020 --> 00:00:39.800
Give them strength for the burdens they carry, and open their hearts to listen to the needs

10
00:00:39.800 --> 00:00:41.960
of those they lead.

11
00:00:41.960 --> 00:00:46.120
When they feel overwhelmed, let them turn to you for guidance.

12
00:00:46.120 --> 00:00:52.040
No leader is perfect, but I trust that you will work through them to accomplish good.

13
00:00:52.040 --> 00:00:57.200
Help me to remember to pray for them often, knowing that leadership is not easy.

14
00:00:57.200 --> 00:01:00.280
Thank you for being the ultimate source of wisdom.

15
00:01:00.280 --> 00:01:02.400
In Jesus' name, Amen.
