Pray for wisdom and fairness in government leadership
Pray for Government
God, give the king your justice; your righteousness to the royal son. He will judge your people with righteousness, and your poor with justice.
Psalm 72:1-2 World English Bible
Reflection
Those who advise elected officials and execute policy carry immense responsibility behind the scenes. When decisions affect community life, righteous governance requires both personal integrity and sound counsel. Asking God to guide leaders and staff fosters choices rooted in fairness and truth. Seek divine favour and discernment, asking that honesty and justice mark every policy crafted.
Prayer
Pray for government leaders and helpers to make wise and fair choices and to always do what is right.
