1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

 

 II. Prayer and Fasting

   

Isaiah 58:6

Isn¡¯t this the fast that I have chosen to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that you break every yoke?

 

III. The Burden of Prayer

   

Romans 9:1-3

1 I say the truth in Christ, I do not lie, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost,

2 That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart.

3 For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:

Romans 8:26

Likewise the Spirit also helps our infirmities: for we know do not what we should pray for as

We ought: but the Spirit itself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
