Please pray today for Self-Control

Political leaders face daily temptations that can cause them to lose control of their attitudes and actions. They cannot control their circumstances but they can control their response to those circumstances. Prayer to maintain self-control is paramount for their success (Proverbs 25:28; 2 Timothy 1:7). The Message paraphrase interestingly translates Proverbs 16:32b, self-control is better than political power.

People need the Lord! Pray this week for Capitol Commission ministers sharing the gospel. Ephesians 2:5 - "But because of His great love for us, God who is rich in mercy, made us alive even when we were dead in our transgressions - it is by grace you have been saved."
