Praying for the Government
Overview
Derek Prince argues that one of the most basic mandates for Christian prayer is to pray “for kings and all who are in authority.” Prince calls on readers to renew this commitment in this age, explaining how prayer empowers those who are weak in this world to have an impact for God’s plan for the nations.
