Pray for all men with all forms of prayers and requests as you intercede with intense passion. And pray for every political leader and representative, so that we would be able to live tranquil, undisturbed lives, as we worship the awe-inspiring God with pure hearts. It is pleasing to our Savior-God to pray for them. He longs for everyone to embrace his life and return to the full knowledge of the truth."   ACTION & INFO FROM TODAY'S EPISODE: Stay involved w/ TSOF & LACAG Join the Warriors' Circle: https://join.freedomstate.us/ for exclusive content and to have a voice in the topics of conversation we have here on TSOF.
