Instruction for Prayer and Worship
1 Timothy 2:1-6

1. I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. As you make your requests, plead for God's mercy upon them, and give thanks.
2. Pray this way for kings and all others who are in authority, so that we can live in peace and quietness, in godliness and dignity.
3. This is good and pleases God our Savior,
4. for he wants everyone to be saved and to understand the truth.
5. For there is only one God and one Mediator who can reconcile God and people. He is the man Christ Jesus.
6. He gave his life to purchase freedom for everyone. This is the message that God gave to the world at the proper time.
