Your Nation

Your fourth prayer priority is your nation. Pray that the president will have the wisdom of God; that spiritual leaders will walk in wisdom, be people of prayer and be kept by the power of God. Pray specifically, naming your city, state and national leaders. Intercede for the United States. Pray for revival.

The Lord also commands us to pray for the peace of Jerusalem (Ps. 122:6), so pray for the success of the nation of Israel.

You may wish to ask God to lay another nation of the world upon your heart—communist nations, countries experiencing revolution or famine, and so forth. Allow the Spirit of God to enlarge your borders of concern and compassion.

At this point, you will have prayed through the first two topics in Christ's model prayer: “Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name”; and “Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven.” There are four remaining demarcations.

Perhaps you now realize how simple it is to pray one hour. You are learning how to pray for multitudes of things that once caused you fear, worry and frustration. And now instead of thinking, How could I ever pray an entire hour?, you may be wondering, How can I ever get through in only one hour?

You see, our problem has been simple. Not knowing what to say or do when we prayed, we wore ourselves out in about ten minutes. But Jesus said, “After this manner pray ye,” and He gave us a prayer outline to follow.

In the context of this prayer are the five major themes that have been restored to vitality in the church in our time. They are praise and worship; kingdom authority; prosperity; relationships; and spiritual authority. Each of those themes is there, and each is in perfect balance. Yes, in the context of this prayer is everything you need in order to live full and free in spiritual victory!
