We should know that leaders of nations are appointed by God and we should pray for them so they can lead our nations well. The Bible encourages us to obey the leaders who are leading our nations. As they are selected from God so we need to uphold them in our prayers.
When we ask God to guide our leaders according to his plan then our nations begin to experience God’s work in our respective nations. We can do this little job for them and it will help them to walk in God’s direction.
Here are some Bible verses that will help the leaders of nations to know God’s will for them and assist them to be wise in order to do their work righteously.
