The book of I Timothy 2:1-2 has on record how to pray as well :::::
I EXHORT therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
KINGS::::::::::::IN THE USA TO MY UNDERSTANDING WE HAVE A PRESIDENT
INSTEAD OF A KING...IN OTHER COUNTRIES THERE ARE KINGS, PRESIDENTS,
PRIME MINISTERS, ETC...........
ALL THAT ARE IN AUTHORITY
I Timothy 2:1-2 teaches us the Duty of Intercession and Peaceableness.
I Timothy 2:1-2 refers us to Ezra 6:10, Jeremiah 29:7 and Romans 13:1:
a. which has on record sacred places "Zerubbabel's Temple" and commands the applicants to promote the building.
b. Pleading in prayer, for country, national pardon
c. Civil/social life and obedience to rulers
I Timothy 2:4 ... Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
ALL MAY BE SAVED -- Man Redeemed

I shared this when I had my mission mailing list at another site in 2002-2003 .....and some of my writings were up until June 2007 -- and now I will decide if and or when to put some of them back online.
If you died today, are you absolutely certain that you would go to heaven? You can be! TRUST JESUS NOW
