We are encouraged to pray for Those In Authority
I urge, then, first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. I Timothy 2:1 & 2

Sample Prayers for Leaders and Those in Authority
Father I give you thanks for these leaders and ask that your mercy be upon them. Let your Holy Spirit be poured out upon them and convict them of their sins, Your righteousness and the coming judgment. Bring comfort where they need comfort, bring healing where healing is needed, help them to be strong and courageous when they need to take a righteous but un-poplar stand. I pray that you give them wisdom and let them be a blessing to the nation and land of Israel and not a curse. I pray that they make this nation a "Shining City On A Hill" that would reach the world for Christ as our founders intended it to be. We pray that the God's Word and the Gospel of Jesus Christ would be brought back into public schools and that Abortion would become illegal in America. If new men and women need to be elected to bring that about, I pray that you make it happen for your Great Name’s sake. Make these men and women more like Jesus Christ show them Your will. I ask that you pour your Holy Spirit on them, potect and guid them and ablove all, save the unsaved ones. I give thanks for and plead your mercy for :
