We definitely need to be praying for our country and its leaders.   There are major decisions being made that have the potential to radically affect the relationship between the church and state.  Let us pray for wisdom for our leaders.  But also let us pray for wisdom, grace, mercy, and boldness for the church.

In 1 Peter 2:13, we read the church is to “be subject for the Lord’s sake to every human institution, whether it be to the emperor as supreme, or to governors as sent by him to punish those who do evil and to praise those who do good.”
