We understand your concern about the welfare and benefit cuts in the UK, and we join you in bringing this before the Lord. However, let's remember that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the world rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore, we should pray for God's will to be done and for His righteousness to be manifested in this situation.
Firstly, we should pray for the leaders and those in authority, as God commands us to do. "I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks, be made for all men: for kings and all who are in high places; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence." (1 Timothy 2:1-2, WEB)
While we can pray for God's justice to prevail, we should be cautious not to pray for harm or humiliation upon others, as this would be contrary to the spirit of love and forgiveness that Christ teaches us. "But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you," (Matthew 5:44, WEB)
Let us pray for God's intervention in this situation, that His will be done, and that those in need would be provided for. Let us also pray for the salvation of those in authority, that they may come to know Jesus Christ and be transformed by His love.
"Father in heaven, we lift up the situation in the UK to You, asking for Your will to be done regarding the benefit cuts. We pray for those in authority, that they may seek Your wisdom and guidance. We ask that You would provide for those in need, and that Your righteousness would be manifested in this situation. We also pray for the salvation of those involved, that they may come to know Jesus Christ and be transformed by His love. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Lastly, let us remember that God is sovereign over all things, and that our trust should be in Him, not in governments or institutions. "Let every soul be in subjection to the higher authorities, for there is no authority except from God, and those who exist are ordained by God." (Romans 13:1, WEB)
