sovereign

Father, bless these Your men. Bless their hearts as well when they are tempted to shift their eyes toward what is happening in the geopolitical world, in the news, or toward the voices that would call them away from faith and into fear.

Help them remember that You are sovereign over all, before all, and in all. Kings rise and kingdoms fall, but You remain. No man has control over You. No ruler can thwart You. No movement of nations surprises You. You have appointed the times and the seasons, and history itself moves beneath Your sovereign hand.

So give these men a settled confidence. Whatever comes, Your will shall ultimately be done. No act of man can overthrow Your purposes, move Your appointed times and seasons, silence Your Word, diminish Your kingdom, or curtail the victory You have secured through Christ.

May each of Your men rest in that truth, find shelter beneath it, be strengthened by it, and stand buttressed by the firm assurance that You are still God, Christ is still King, the Gospel is still powerful, and Your Kingdom will not fail.

In Jesus Name, Amen.
