Australian Government

Father, in Jesus’ n a m e, we give thanks for the Australia

and its gove rn m e n t . We hold up in prayer before You the

men and women who are in positions of authori ty. We pray and

i n t e rcede for the prime minster , the representatives, the senators, the

judges of our land, the policemen and the policewomen, as well

as the gove rnors and mayors, and for all those who are in

authority over us in any way.We pray that the Sp i rit of the Lord

rests upon them.

We believe that skillful and godly wisdom has entered into

the heart of our prime minister and knowledge is pleasant to him.

Discretion watches over him; understanding keeps him and

delivers him from the way of evil and from evil men.

Father, we ask that You compass the leaders about with

men and women who make their hearts and ears attentive to godly

counsel and do that which is right in Your sight. We believe You

cause them to be men and women of integrity who are obedient

concerning us that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all

godliness and honesty.We pray that the upright shall dwell in our

government — that men and women blameless and complete in

Your sight, Father, shall remain in these positions of authority, but

the wicked shall be cut off from our gov ernment and the

treacherous shall be rooted out of it.

Your Word declares that “blessed is the nation whose God is

the Lord” (Ps. 33:12). We receive Your blessing. Father; You are

our Refuge and Stronghold in times of trouble (high cost,

destitution, and desperation). So we declare with our mouths that

Your people dwell safely in this land, and we prosper abundantly.

We are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus!

It is written in Your Word that the heart of the king is in the

hand of the Lord and that You turn it whichever way You desire.

We believe the heart of our leader is in Your hand and that his

decisions are divinely directed of the Lord.

We give thanks unto You that the good news of the Gospel

is published in our land. The Word of the Lord prevails and grows

mightily in the hearts and lives of the people.We give thanks for

this land and the leaders You have given to us, in Jesus’ name.

Jesus is Lord over the United States! Amen.
