Paul’s directions for praying for others is found in 1 Timothy 2:1-2: Pray much, plead for God’s mercy on them, give thanks for all he is going to do for them. Pray for others in love and goodwill. This includes praying for those in authority, even if you don’t like them.
1 Timothy 2:1-2 (TLB) 1 Here are my directions: Pray much for others; plead for God’s mercy upon them; give thanks for all he is going to do for them. 2 Pray in this way for kings and all others who are in authority over us, or are in places of high responsibility, so that we can live in peace and quietness, spending our time in godly living and thinking much about the Lord.
