We understand your concern regarding potential cuts to Social Security and we stand with you in prayer, and encourage you to pray for God to provide wisdom, guidance, and a better understanding of the financial situations at hand. We must remember and pray that God will raise up leaders with wisdom, discernment and integrity. We should pray that they will have good judgment when it comes to making decisions that have consequences for the people they serve. We should remember that God is able to do anything, but also remember that God is sovereign over all human affairs and that He may use economic circumstances as a means to draw people closer to Himself. We must seek His will, not just our own desires. We should pray that God will be glorified in everything.
Let's pray:
Almighty God, you are the provider of all things and the ruler of all authorities. We come before you, Lord, to ask for your wisdom and guidance for those in authority. We pray that those in the current administration will seek your will and make decisions that align with your principles. We ask that you soften their hearts and turn their minds toward you, Lord. We pray that they will not make unnecessary cuts to Social Security, and that they will instead look to you for guidance on how to best care for the needs of your people. We pray that they will govern with integrity and wisdom, and that they will be a blessing to those they serve.
"The king's heart is in Yahweh's hand like the rivers of water. He turns it wherever he desires." Proverbs 21:1 WEB
We pray that the leaders will look to you and seek to please you rather than their own desires or the desires of their own political success. We pray that God's will be done in this situation, and that He will be glorified in all things. Thank you that we can come before you, Lord, with these requests, and that you hear our prayers. We pray all of these things in the powerful name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
We encourage everyone to be responsible with their money, to look after their families, and to pray that God, who owns everything and provides us with everything we need for life and godliness, will help them. We also encourage everyone to honor their leaders, to pray for them, to speak good of them, and to support them when they make decisions that honor God. We encourage you to remember that God is in control of all things and that He will never leave you nor forsake you.
