Heavenly Father, thank You for the wise instruction Paul gave to Timothy, on the importance and effectiveness of prayer. Help me to pray at all times and to intercede for all men, in spirit, in truth, and without ceasing. Help me to be alert to the rising prayer needs in my own life and the needs of people around the world. Give me a heart to intercede for all men everywhere, for kings, princes, presidents, and leaders, in both the political and spiritual realm. Thank You, Lord, that You are a God Who hears and answers the prayers of the righteous. In Jesus' name, AMEN.
