*BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: EZEKIEL 36-38*
*HYMNAL: 22 - SWEET HOUR OF PRAYER! SWEET HOUR OF PRAYER!*
1 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
that calls me from a world of care,
and bids me at my Father's throne
make all my wants and wishes known.
In seasons of distress and grief,
my soul has often found relief,
and oft escaped the tempter's snare
by thy return, sweet hour of prayer!
2 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
the joys I feel, the bliss I share
of those whose anxious spirits burn
with strong desires for thy return!
With such I hasten to the place
where God my Savior shows his face,
and gladly take my station there,
and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!
3 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
thy wings shall my petition bear
to him whose truth and faithfulness
engage the waiting soul to bless.
And since he bids me seek his face,
believe his word, and trust his grace,
I'll cast on him my every care,
and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!
Commentary
Leaders occupy vital positions in nations, organizations, and the Church. When leaders are guided by wisdom and integrity, the people under them experience peace and prosperity. However, ungodly leadership often brings hardship, confusion, and suffering. This is why Paul, in 1 Timothy 2:1-2, commands us to intercede for all in authority. As Christians, our responsibility is not to complain or criticize but to pray that God will grant leaders wisdom, humility, and a servant’s heart. By doing this, we invite divine intervention into governance, workplace administration, and spiritual leadership. Every believer is a watchman, and prayer is our strongest weapon to influence leadership positively.
🔹 Salvation Message
Beloved, the greatest leader you need in your life is Jesus Christ. No matter how much we pray for earthly leaders, true transformation begins when an individual allows Christ to reign in their heart. If you have not yet surrendered to Him, today is your day of salvation.
🙏 Say this prayer sincerely:
“Lord Jesus, I acknowledge that I am a sinner. I believe You died for me and rose again. Today, I accept You as my Lord and personal Saviour. Wash me clean with Your blood and write my name in the Book of Life. Amen.”
If you prayed this prayer, congratulations! You are now born again. Please locate a Bible-believing church (preferably an RCCG parish near you) to grow in your walk with Christ.
