In the New Testament, we are told to pray for those in leadership positions: “I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people—for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness” (1 Timothy 2:1-2).
Here in Psalm 72, we find a good source to form our petitions for our leaders:
🙏🏻 Give Your judgment to our leaders
🙏🏻 May our leaders follow Your righteousness
🙏🏻 May our leaders rely on Your righteousness to make laws and judgments that honor You
🙏🏻 May our leaders exercise godly justice for those in need
