Political power in the UK

The Prime Minister has mounted a fightback against Iain Duncan Smith’s comments and government voices. Tory MPs are pressurising the Chancellor to rewrite his Budget. Jeremy Corbyn is saying that the Chancellor should resign for a Budget that doesn't add up. Brexit MPs and Non-Brexit MP’s are becoming more and more vocally offensive towards each other as the June EU referendum draws nearer. We can pray for our government to execute justice in all decisions. We can pray that they will follow the Lord's ways and repent if they don't. We can pray for them to govern with wisdom for the welfare of the country, not for personal advancement. We can pray that God will accomplish His purposes through them regardless of their willingness to be used by Him. Prov. 21:1 tells us, ‘The king's heart is a stream of water in the hand of the Lord; He turns it wherever He will.’ We ask God to work His purposes out even through those who are resisting Him.
