Use what you have to serve peace and help others

Use success to gather more control before anyone else does

Treat money as unimportant and never think about it

Wait to act until you have enough power to shape events

If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, I admit that I have sinned and I need your mercy. I turn from my sin and from trusting my own strength. I believe you died for my sins and rose again. I confess you as Lord and ask you to lead my life in your truth. Amen.

Receive the True Lord

Lord, when rulers rise, wealth grows, and nations are stirred up, wake your Church to love your truth above every power. Free us from anxiety, greed, and the desire to win at any cost. Make us steady, wise, and faithful, and let our lives point others to your kingdom, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Make Your Church Steady in Truth

Pray by naming one place where money, status, or influence could steer your choices. Ask God to make you strong in character, not just in resources, and to show you one peaceful, truthful step to take today.

Pray Over Your Influence

Pray for leaders, rulers, and decision-makers who may be tempted to trust wealth or power too much. Ask God to restrain conflict, soften proud hearts, and lead nations toward peace and justice.

For Leaders Under Pressure

Give thanks that God does not hide the reality of human power, wealth, and conflict. Thank him for truth that helps you see clearly, stay humble, and live wisely.

Thanks for Clear Truth

Father, keep me from using what you have given me to push pride, pressure, or conflict onto others. Guard my heart when I gain strength or resources, and teach me to use them for peace, service, and good, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Keep Me from Stirring Conflict
