Prayer about Leadership and Government
Introduction
Prayer is a fundamental source of communication with our Almighty God. It gives us the opportunity to express our gratitude, express our needs, and seek for divine guidance. It wonderfully enriches our spiritual lives and uplifts us spiritually. Prayer is beneficial not only in personal lives, but also has a broader perspective, touching every aspect of society, including the spheres of leadership and government.
