Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“I urge, then, first of all, that…prayers…be made for…kings…”
(1 Timothy 2:1-2)

At first blush, this can seem a bit…

irritating, Jesus.

Why would You command even the poorest subjects to pray for their king?

Here they are, powerless, struggling just to make ends meet

while kings can do pretty much whatever they want
and live in jaw-dropping luxury.

Maybe that’s why –

so kings will exercise their power for the good of their people
and become willing to share the wealth.
