Pray for kings and all those in authority
(1Ti.2:1-4)

Introduction: The most important core in prayer is to ask God for what you want eagerly. Prayers without any sincere heart are not a prayer at all. Whenever we stand before God, every prayer is connected to the confess that shows how thankful we are for what He has done. If you want to enjoy sincere peace and the gospel in the walk of faith, we must pray that May the kingdom of God come upon on this earth.
