1 Timothy 2:1-4
Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
Greetings Bible Enthusiast!
I hope that you all enjoy a wonderful Fourth of July with family and friends! It's a perfect day to set aside time to pray for our nation's president and other government officials. Do you know that the Bible actually exhorts us to do so? See above!
God Bless You!
