leaders respected by everyone

Psalm 72:8-11 (JDV)

Psalm 72:8 May he rule from sea to sea and from the Euphrates to the ends of the land.
Psalm 72:9 May desert tribes kneel before him and his enemies lick the dust.
Psalm 72:10 May the kings of Tarshish and the coasts and islands bring tribute, the kings of Sheba and Seba offer gifts.
Psalm 72:11 Let all kings bow in homage to him, all nations serve him.

leaders respected by everyone

If you have a good and godly leader, you want him or her to be respected and admired by everyone.

The psalmist prayed for his king, and asked for his authority and influence to spread to all kings and all nations.

Our prayers for our leaders should follow suit, especially and ultimately we should seek for God’s kingdom to come, his will to be done on earth as well as in heaven.

Lord, give us godly leaders, and may they be respected by everyone.
