NTEB SUNDAY SERVICE: There Is A Very Good Reason Why Christians Are Commanded To Pray For Our Leaders, And It’s So Simple You Just May Miss It
God tells us in the scriptures that we are to pray for our rulers and leaders for a very good reason, and the apostle Paul tells us exactly what that reason is.
All through the New Testament, the scripture is surprisingly deferential to kings, rules and all people who are in governmental leadership positions. Those First Century Christians lived during a time of tremendous persecution, so one might understand a ‘call to arms’ against wicked and evil rulers like the Caesars of the Roman empire. Yet we see just the opposite, we see God calling believers to not only not revolt, but to pray for those whose authority they are under. The reason why this is so very simple and obvious, yet it seems to have escaped the grasp of most Christians in our day.
“I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.” 1 Timothy 2:1-4 (KJB)
In our Sunday Service this morning, I made the case that, regardless of who you voted for, you’re going to wind up in the same end place as the people on the “other side” will. The ride may be different, longer or shorter, but the end result will be the same. We are living in tremendous times, a time where prophecy is literally jumping off the pages of your King James Bible. Kamala or Trump? Set your sites a little higher, OK, a lot higher, and get the ‘heavenly vision’ that God is trying to show you.

When people write in and say how much they would like gospel tracts but cannot afford them, we send them a box at no cost to them for either the tracts or the shipping, no matter where they are in the world. We have a Gospel Billboard program. We are now broadcasting Bible studies, Podcasts and a Sunday Service 5 times a week, thanks to your generous donations. All this is possible because YOU pray for us, YOU support us, and YOU give so we can continue growing.
But whatever you do, don’t do nothing. Time is short and we need your help right now. The Lord has given us an open door with a tremendous ‘course’ for us to fulfill that will create an excellent experience at the Judgement Seat of Christ. Please pray for our efforts, and if the Lord leads you to donate, be as generous as possible. The war is REAL, the battle HOT and the time is SHORT…TO THE FIGHT!!!
