Why does the scripture say to pray for Kings and people in authority, if it is just about working for the church alone. Of course it is more to deal with unseen powers than what is seen.
1 Timothy 2:1-4
King James Version (KJV)
2 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.
[h=3]Ephesians 6:12[/h]King James Version (KJV)
[SUP]12 [/SUP]For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
