… that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; to the end that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be strengthened to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and height and depth, and to know Christ’s love which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

Ephesians 3:17-19 World English Bible

Reflection

Decision-making in government often becomes driven by theory, partisan platforms, or political philosophy. When elected officials encounter the living presence of God, their motivation shifts from abstract ideology to genuine care for those they serve. Experiencing divine love firsthand transforms how decision-makers view their responsibilities, inspiring humility, compassion, and true integrity. We ask that those who hold authority experience this personal encounter, gaining wisdom that transcends policy debate and leading with a heart shaped by heavenly grace.

Prayer

Pray for a Revelation of God’s Love - That they would come to know God personally, not just ideologically, and lead with His perspective in mind. (Ephesians 3:17–19)
