We Are The People

1 Kings 20:31-32: Then his servants said to him, “Look now, we have heard that the kings of the house of Israel are merciful kings. Please, let us put sackcloth around our waists and ropes around our heads, and go out to the king of Israel; perhaps he will spare your life.” So they wore sackcloth around their waists and put ropes around their heads, and came to the king of Israel and said, “Your servant Ben-Hadad says, ‘Please let me live.’” And he said, “Is he still alive? He is my brother.”

Good evening and welcome to the Sunday Night Edition of “We are the People” prayer for America. Every Sunday we bring together the hearts of intercessors that choose to invest a minimum of 15 minutes in prayers of agreement between the hours of 6 and 9 p.m. using the three focus points listed below as a guide. May God bless you for your concern for America’s future expressed in prayer tonight. We encourage you to join us in prayer daily and invite others to join us.

Then Servants of Ben Hadad desired that their king would live. They went to great lengths to help him escape death.

Their humility and repentance reveal the love they had for their leader.

Prayer Focus #1: Pray that there will be those who serve our national leaders who will go the extra mile in protecting the lives of those they serve.

Prayer Focus #2: The servants of Ben Hadad were very perceptive. They knew that the king of Israel would be merciful to their king. Pray that there will be wise servants who will have the mind of Christ in dealing with other leaders. We need people who will serve using both good processes and have favorable outcomes.

Prayer Focus #3: Correct representation of the heart of the Syrian king, Ben Hadad, to Israel King, Ahab, brought a favorable response. Pray that those who serve our high-level leaders will have a proper understanding of our leader’s hearts and that they will be able to communicate that heart so others will be drawn into the purposes of God in the earth.
