Praying from Romans 13:2. Themes: Authority, Resistance, Judgment.

Dear God, help us to submit to the authorities that you have placed over us. May we not resist their leadership or go against the laws that they have established. We know that by resisting authority, we are also resisting your divine ordinance. Please give us the wisdom and discernment to follow your will and obey those in positions of authority. We pray that we will not receive judgment for our disobedience, but rather be blessed for our obedience. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

Verse: Therefore he who resists the authority withstands the ordinance of God; and those who withstand will receive to themselves judgment.
Romans 13:2

This is a Command: Submit to authority or face judgment.
