In these last days of
perilous times, we must remember our privilege given to us from the Lord to
pray for situations and authorities around the globe. We ought to be faithful
and fervent in prayer, talking to Jesus of our concerns, needs, and desires so
that we can live peaceful, quiet, godly, and respected lives. We must keep in
mind to always pray for all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of
the truth. We must remember to ask for God’s will in all our requests. Because
he has filled us with his Holy Ghost, we can also pray in the Spirit. We need
not be anxious or to worry, because Jesus hears and answers our prayers.
2 Timothy 3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous
times shall come.

1 Timothy 2:1-4 I exhort therefore, that, first of all,
supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all
men; for kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and
peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in
the sight of God our Saviour; who will have all men to be saved, and to come
unto the knowledge of the truth.
1 John 5:14-15 And this is the confidence that we have in
him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: and if we
know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions
that we desired of him.
James 5:17-18 Elias was a man subject to like passions as we
are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the
earth by the space of three years and six months. And he prayed again, and the
heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.
Ephesians 6:18-19 Praying always with all prayer and
supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and
supplication for all saints; and for me, that utterance may be given unto me,
that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,
Romans 8:26-27 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our
infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the
Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be
uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the
Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of
God.
Jude 1:20 KJV - But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,
Philippians 4:6-7 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing
by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known
unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep
your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
