21 Confessions To Speak Over America

As an American, you have many wonderful liberties such as freedom of speech and freedom of religion. You also have responsibilities like paying taxes and abiding by the laws of the land. In addition to these things, as a Christian, you have a responsibility to pray.

1 Timothy 2:1-2 says, “I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them. Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity.”
