Pray the word with David Platt is a resource from radical. net.

1st Timothy chapter 2 verses 1 and 2.

First of all then I urge that supplications, prayers,

intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people,

for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life,

godly and dignified in every way.

What a couple of verses that teach us how to pray,

and I think convict us when we think about all people including kings and all who are in

high positions how often are we praying and interceding and thanking God for all people, not just the people who are closest to us or the people we love the most,

obviously we pray for them, but to pray and intercede and thank God for all the people around us.

Just think about all the people you will interact with today.

What wouldn't look like just to live today?

Praying for, thanking God for all the people around you today

including those who are in high positions of government we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way.

And then the verses after this go on and talk about how God desires all people to be saved

to come to the knowledge of the truth.

This would change our prayer lives if we

were intentional about praying for all kinds of people around us without

exception including kings and those who are in high positions.

So let's practice that now.

And then I just want to encourage you all day long today.

Remember First Thessalonians, chapter five,
