A clear principle demonstrated throughout Israel's history is this - godly leaders impact the nation for good. However, the opposite is also true. Ungodly leaders can ruin a nation. Dr. John teaches through Psalm 20, a royal psalm for the king. The psalm teaches us how to pray for our leadership, be it civil or congregational. We pray the blessing of God upon our leaders that we, too, might be blessed.Prayers of King David: Part of the appeal of the Psalms is that they speak to our current life situations with clarity and hope. In this five-message series, Dr. John points to the prayers of David from Psalms 13-17. Whether we are enduring difficult times, feel surrounded by ungodliness, are falsely accused or struggle to worship well, these Psalms are our prayers.
