1 Timothy 2 (Paul says)
1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

There was a time that I would have thought, "How can I do that?" (pray for those in authority)
But now I find God has given me an heart to pray for those who are in authority.
And I am doing that. Not just for those in authority in USA but also other leaders in this world.
It shocks me! but that is what is going on with me now. And I sincerely encourage you to do this also! Because that is what the Bible tells us and we should always conform ourselves to Bible. And God has greatly increased my own peace as I have been praying for those in authority.

If you think you can't do this, then I suggest you pray over yourselves.
Psalm 51:10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
I often pray this over myself! "Please create in me a clean heart and renew a right spirit in me concerning that person."
(We
know when our own spirit is not right concerning another person ... and we see how God will give us a
right spirit when we pray. I often pray this over myself and instantly
God cleanses me and gives me a right spirit.)

God always does that for me when I ask HIM.
For
several months before the presidential election in 2024, God began
changing my heart over Donald Trump, getting my heart into a proper
position so I could pray for him. (God obviously knows future and HE knew Mr. Trump was going to be elected president of USA in 2024.)
I want to conform myself to what I see in Bible for I know that is the right way to live.
I know my heart has been changed by God concerning Mr. Trump and my own heart had to be changed by God before I could pray with a good heart.
And I really believe it is the right thing to do to pray for those in positions of authority just as Paul told us in I Timothy 2:1-4 ... and I plan to try to remember to do this on a regular basis.

Podcast: The end of the world: The sun and moon stops shining, the stars fall from heaven ... Jesus says, "Be ready."
A woman in our church group had the following dream: She
and her husband were going out to buy a new TV. She was "ready" and
was waiting for her husband at their car. (He was not ready.) All
of a sudden, the sun turned completely dark! She said it was
terrifying even though she knew Bible and knew what that meant. (Jesus
would return through the sky soon to gather the elect of God to take the
elect to the New Heaven and New earth which God has created for us. Mt. 24:29-31)
(Rev. 21:1-5 John says: And I saw a new heaven and a new earth:
for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there
was no more sea. 2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming
down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her
husband. 3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying,
Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and HE will dwell with them,
and they shall be HIS people, and God Himself shall be with them, and be
their God. 4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and
there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall
there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. 5 And HE
that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And HE said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.)

Continued: Dream where woman saw sky go dark in middle of day:
She
started to run back into their house but then she knew that would do no
good so she just fell down on her knees calling on the name of Jesus.

Matthew 24 (Jesus says)
44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

Acts 2:14 But
Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto
them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this
known unto you, and hearken to my words: 15 For these (men) are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day.
16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;
17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of MY Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: 18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of MY Spirit; and they shall prophesy:
19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:
π₯ 20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come:
21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

The apostle Peter tells us in the Bible how we are to live as we wait for the return of Jesus:
2 Peter 3:10-14 (Peter says)
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in
the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the
elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that
are therein shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
13 Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless.

13 Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless.
Restructure the days remaining where you are going in the way of peace, without spot, and blameless.
