Prophet James Goll Urges Every Christian to Pray for This Right Now

“Therefore I exhort first of all that you make supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings for everyone, for kings and for all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceful life in all godliness and honesty, for this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth” (1 Tim. 2:1-4, MEV).
The United States of America is at a critical time in its history. It seems like we are repeating a precarious cycle from 50 years ago.
In the 1960s, we experienced the generation gap, economic division, racial strife, hate crimes, free sex movement, assassinations of leaders, drug epidemics and much more. Prayer was removed from public schools, abortion was made legally available, an assault was released against traditional family values and roles, a no-fault divorce clause was introduced and on and on it goes. This began to unravel American society as we had known it.
While the current tumultuous cultural climate is very similar to the 1960s, it is perhaps even more precariously heightened. Today we have Supreme-Court-sanctioned gay marriage, open doors to an escalating gender confusion, Presidential Executive Orders that go outside of Constitutional rights, the legalization of drugs in specific states, violent radical Islamic jihadist attacks, trillions of dollars of national debt, and more.
Much of the current mood in the U. S. is one of anger, frustration and extreme polarization. The final four candidates from the two major political parties running for President of the United States revealed this extreme polarity: a liberal socialist, a crooked insider, a boastful outsider and a rigid constitutionalist. (Yes, I do honor and pray for those in authority, but I am painting a vivid picture on purpose. Just hold onto your hat!)
Many dedicated Christians and conservative patriots are so disillusioned that they are not sure who to vote for, and some are even considering just checking out. I get it. I honestly do! In my family, we have been joking about adding my oldest son as a write-in vote on the ballot for the next President of the United States. He would be a good one!
The Scriptures state, “I urge you to pray!”
Praying for people in positions of authority is a high priority in the heart of God. In 1 Timothy 2:1–4, we are given an apostolic admonition for these prayers.
