Pray for the Ministers of God’s Holy Word and Sacraments

Intercession 5.17 | KJV

For all the ministers of God’s holy word and sacraments, the masters of assemblies.

Teach thy ministers how they ought to behave themselves in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, 1 Timothy 3:15(KJV) that they may not preach themselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, 2 Corinthians 4:5(KJV) and may study to show themselves approved to God, workmen that need not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:15(KJV)

Make them mighty in the Scriptures, Acts 18:24(KJV) that from thence they may be thoroughly furnished for every good work, 2 Timothy 3:17(KJV) in doctrine showing uncorruptness, gravity and sincerity, and sound speech, which cannot be condemned. Titus 2:7-8(KJV)

Enable them to give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine, 1 Timothy 4:13(KJV) to meditate upon these things; 1 Timothy 4:15(KJV) to give themselves to prayer and to the ministry of the word, Acts 6:4(KJV) to give themselves wholly to them; and to continue in them, that they may both save themselves and those that hear them. 1 Timothy 4:15-16(KJV)

Let utterance be given to them, that they may open their mouths boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, that thereof they may speak as they ought to speak, Ephesians 6:19-20(KJV) as able ministers of the New Testament, not of the letter but of the Spirit; 2 Corinthians 3:6(KJV) and let them obtain mercy of the Lord to be faithful. 1 Corinthians 7:25(KJV)

Let the arms of their hands be made strong by the hands of the mighty God of Jacob; Genesis 49:24(KJV) and let them be full of power by the Spirit of the Lord of hosts, Micah 3:8(KJV) to show thy people their transgressions and the house of Jacob their sins. Isaiah 58:1(KJV)

Make them sound in the faith, Titus 1:13(KJV) and enable them always to speak the things which become sound doctrine, Titus 2:1(KJV) with meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; and let not the servants of the Lord strive but be gentle to all men, apt to teach. 2 Timothy 2:24-25(KJV)

Make them good examples to the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, and in purity; 1 Timothy 4:12(KJV) and let them be clean that bear the vessels of the Lord, Isaiah 52:11(KJV) and let HOLINESS TO THE LORD be written upon their foreheads. Exodus 28:36(KJV)

Lord, grant that they may not labour in vain or spend their strength for nought and in vain, Isaiah 49:4(KJV) but let the hand of the Lord be with them, that many may believe and turn to the Lord. Acts 11:21(KJV)

Pray for your Judges and Judicial Rulers

Intercession 5.16 | KJV

For the magistrates, the judges, and justices of peace in the several counties and corporations.

Make those that rule over my nation just, ruling in the fear of God; 2 Samuel 23:3(KJV) and let those that judge remember that they judge not for man, but for the Lord, who is with them in the judgment, that therefore the fear of the Lord may be upon them. 2 Chronicles 19:6-7(KJV)

Make them able men and men of truth, fearing God and hating covetousness, Exodus 18:21(KJV) that judgment may run down like a river and righteousness as a mighty stream. Amos 5:24(KJV)

Enable my nation’s magistrates to defend the poor and fatherless, to do justice for the afflicted and needy, to deliver the poor and needy, and to rid them out of the hand of the wicked; Psalm 82:3-4(KJV) and let rulers never be a terror to good works, but to the evil. Romans 13:4(KJV)

Pray for all who are Employed in the Conduct of Public Affairs

Intercession 5.15 | KJV

For the privy-counsellors, the ministers of state, the members of Parliament, the ambassadors and envoys abroad, and all that are employed in the conduct of public affairs.

Counsel my nation’s counsellors, and teach its senators wisdom: Psalm 105:22(KJV) O give them a spirit of wisdom and understanding, a spirit of counsel and might, a spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord, to make them of quick understanding in the fear of the Lord. Isaiah 11:2-3(KJV)

O remove not the speech of the trusty nor take away the understanding of the aged, Job 12:20(KJV) nor ever let the things that belong to the nation’s peace be hid from the eyes of those that are instructed with the nation’s counsels. Luke 19:42(KJV)

Make it to appear that thou standest in the congregation of the mighty and judgest among the gods, Psalm 82:1(KJV) and that when the princes of the people are gathered together, even the people of the God of Abraham, the God of Abraham himself is among them; and let the shields of the earth belong unto the Lord, that he may be greatly exalted. Psalm 47:9(KJV)

Let those that be of my nation build the old waste places and raise up the foundations of many generations, that they may be called the repairers of the breaches and restorers of paths to dwell in. Isaiah 58:12(KJV)
