Loving God, we pray for the leaders of nations and peoples. We ask that they will fulfil their duties and obligations with honesty, integrity and with humility.
May they always seek the common good. Guide them to keep the needs of the poor, weak, marginalised, abused, exploited and voiceless at the heart of their thinking, policies and actions. Strengthen them to work tirelessly to ensure everyone has a home which is a place of safety and security. May they ensure no one need be hungry, that medical needs are met swiftly and that children are provided with high quality education. May they seek to create communities where no one is ill-treated as a result of their ethnic background, gender, sexuality, age, or economic worth, and where all have equal access to justice. Help them also, to ensure hygienic and safe working practices so that people can live and work in safety.
In the name of Jesus we pray. Amen.
Lord Jesus you are King of kings and Lord of lords. We place into your care the leaders of nations.
Guide them to be creative in addressing the needs of people who are hungry, those without access to clean water and sanitation, and those who are fuel poor, May their priority be the well-being of people living in poverty.
We pray also that they promote among their people care for the natural world. May they pursue initiatives which address the climate crisis and enable countries to reduce carbon emissions. May the use of natural resources, such as fish stocks and forests, be monitored and sustainably managed.
Help them also to develop good relationships between one another. May they seek to make the world a place where bitterness and strife, revenge and division between nations no longer exists. May they seek international agreements in trade, education, culture, health and welfare that recognise our interdependence and promote unity. Guide their decision making so that people may live in peace and security.
Open their hearts to find agreement on ways in which, working collaboratively, the world can tackle the global challenges we face.
In Jesus' name we pray. Amen
