Civic Leadership and Biblical Praying

Back to My Prayer for America | Whitehouse Staff | House of Representatives | US Senate| Praying for the State Government | Local Government and Biblical Praying | Suggestions for CIVIL LEADER Prayer Requests

Our relationship to government has always been a controversial topic both in Biblical times as well as contemporary.

But we are commanded to pray for civil Governing Authorities and to biblically submit to them.

Pray:

1 Tim 2:1 ¶ Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men,
2 for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,
4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
5 For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus,
6 who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time,
7 for which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle—I am speaking the truth in Christ and not lying—a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.
8 I desire therefore that the men pray everywhere, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting;
 

Submit:

Heb 13:17 Obey those who rule over you, and be submissive, for they watch out for your souls, as those who must give account. Let them do so with joy and not with grief, for that would be unprofitable for you.

Romans 13.1 ¶ Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God.
2 Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves.
3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same.
4 For he is God’s minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God’s minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil.
5 Therefore you must be subject, not only because of wrath but also for conscience’ sake.
6 For because of this you also pay taxes, for they are God’s ministers attending continually to this very thing.
7 ¶ Render therefore to all their due: taxes to whom taxes are due, customs to whom customs, fear to whom fear, honor to whom honor.
To correctly understand the interpretation of this passage, we'd encourage the reader to consider this book by Chuck Baldwin:

“Romans 13: The True Meaning of Submission.” This book takes the entire Word of God to show that nowhere does the Bible teach (including in Romans 13) that Christians should submit to unlawful government. In fact, just the opposite is taught: Christians often have a duty to RESIST unlawful government.  --  see the link to Romans 13 OR the Archive Newsletter at www.ChuckBaldwinlive.com 
 

Summary:

Romans 13: The True Meaning of Submission shows, with overwhelming support, that submission to government is limited and that the obey-government-no-matter-what argument is false! 

Romans 13: The True Meaning of Submission discusses and shows sound rules of biblical interpretation and construction, incorporates logical and literary reasoning, and uses hundreds of Scriptural proofs for its conclusions.

Preface

Introduction

• Ch 1:   Submission Command Applies to Every Soul—A Universal Principle
   
• Ch 2:   De Facto ‘Higher Powers’ Superseded   by De Jure ‘Highest Powers’
   
• Ch 3:   ‘Higher Powers’ Are God-Ordained To Apply Justice
   
• Ch 4:   That God Commands Unlimited Submission to Unjust Government Contradicts God’s Nature
   
• Ch 5:   ‘Higher Powers’ Qualify as Ministers of God by Merit of Works—Not Mere Title or Position
   
• Ch 6:   ‘Higher Powers’ Ordained Only For the Good of the People
   
• Ch 7:   God Is No Respecter of ‘Higher Powers’
   
• Ch 8:   Submission Must Consider One’s Conscience
   
• Ch 9:   Submission Must Consider One’s Duties to
  Others
   
• Ch 10:   Proper Submission May Require Reformation or Resistance

Some good requests (More to be added):

1. That these officials will truly act so as to bring us security resulting in quiet, peace, and freedom to live pleasing to You, oh LORD.
2. That wisdom about decisions made would be without partiality, and with fairness and the most peaceful results would be chosen.
