We are commanded to pray!

Men ought always to pray, and not to faint. (Luke 18:1, KJV)

Pray without ceasing. (1 Thess. 5:17, KJV)

Your prayers make a difference!

The supplication of a righteous man availeth much in its working. (James 5:16b, ASV)

I will give to you the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatever is fixed by you on earth will be fixed in heaven: and whatever you make free on earth will be made free in heaven. (Matthew 16:19, Bible in Basic English)

Jesus said to them, "Have faith in God. In solemn truth I tell you that if any one shall say to this mountain, `Remove, and hurl thyself into the sea,' and has no doubt about it in his heart, but stedfastly believes that what he says will happen, it shall be granted him. That is why I tell you, as to whatever you pray and make request for, if you believe that you have received it it shall be yours. (Mark 11:22-24, Weymouth)

If you abide in Me, and My Words abide in you, you shall ask what you will, and it shall be done unto you. (John 15:7, KJV)


Top government prayer needs:

I exhort therefore, first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings, be made for all men; for kings and all that are in high place; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and gravity. This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; who would have all men to be saved, and come to the knowledge of the truth. (1 Timothy 2:1-4, KJV)

The king's heart in the hands of the Lord is like the water streams, and by him it is turned in any direction at his pleasure. (Proverbs 21:1, Bible in Basic English)


Top ministry prayer needs:

Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you. (2 Thessalonians 3:1, KJV)

Pray with unceasing prayer and entreaty on every fitting occasion in the Spirit, and be always on the alert to seize opportunities for doing so, with unwearied persistence and entreaty on behalf of all God's people, and ask on my behalf that words may be given to me so that, outspoken and fearless, I may make known the truths (hitherto kept secret) of the Good News--to spread which I am an ambassador in chains--so that when telling them I may speak out boldly as I ought. (Ephesians 8:18-20, Weymouth)
