349 – A Better Way to Pray about Corruption in Government

349 – Are you praying for your government?

If you take an unbiased look at the government of countries all over the world, you’ll often find some degree of corruption.

Sometimes it doesn’t run very deep but other times senior leaders and the heads of government themselves are the source of corruption.

This has been going on since governments began. Is there a solution? Even when politicians claim they try to get rid of all corruption, it’s a difficult thing to accomplish. Many governments don’t try at all and are causing the problem.

As Christians, what can you and I do about this problem?

Should we get involved in politics, public demonstrations, or social activism, letter writing campaigns, calling government officials? What you decide to do is totally up to you, and not every Christian is going to feel compelled to fight corruption these ways.

What we all can do is pray.

But should we pray for a government when it’s corrupt? Does prayer even make a difference with such a huge problem? There are lots of different ways to pray about this.

How can we pray more effectively to get rid of corruption in government?
