Prayer

Jesus taught us to pray for God's kingdom to come and His will to be done on earth as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:10).

Father, forgive me for sometimes trusting in nations and leaders more than in You. Help me see that kingdoms rise and fall, but Your Word stands forever. I confess that I can get anxious about world events and forget that You already know the end. Give me faith to believe that Your purposes will not be thwarted—not by governments, not by empires, not by anything. Strengthen my hope in Jesus' return and Your ultimate reign. In Jesus' name, Amen.
