As the dust settles in the UK after one of the closest general elections in decades, the new coalition government is facing big decisions about how best to govern and to work together. This month, join us in praying for our political leaders in all parties.
- In 1 Timothy 2:1-3, we read that we are to pray “for kings and all others who are in authority.” Please pray for our new Prime Minister and Cabinet. Pray that they will make decisions for the good of the people and that they will govern wisely in accordance with God’s will.
- In the wake of last year’s expenses scandal, many MPs stood down at the general election. With over two hundred new faces in Parliament, pray that this new beginning will help to restore trust and confidence in our political system.
- Please pray for all Christians serving in parliament as they seek to put God first in the way they serve both their country and their constituencies. Pray that in the unique and challenging environment of the political arena, they will remain committed to living in and living out of the Bible’s life words.
