Are Christians to Honor and Respect Our Governments …especially when they are so CORRUPT and EVIL?

The Word of God speaks of the wicked, “The wicked strut about on every side when vileness is exalted among the sons of mankind” (Psalm 12:8) and “The fool has said in his heart, ‘There is no God.’ They are corrupt, they have committed detestable acts; there is no one who does good. The Lord has looked down from heaven upon the sons of mankind to see if there are any who understand, who seek God. They have all turned aside, together they are corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one” (Psalm 14:1-3).

We are to share the gospel of repentance and faith personally, by email, by letters, but how are we to pray for officials when they are so wicked, so deceitful, so sexually perverse?

Do we pray for God’s mercy on officials who do not obey the laws of the nation? Officials who have opened the borders for illegal immigrants resulting in the loss of 300,000 children mainly to child trafficking, and the 100,000 dying yearly from smuggled drugs, or do we pray for God’s judgement on such evil?

How do we pray for a government which uses its citizens’ tax funds to support an organization which kills more blacks in two weeks than others killed in a century? Do we pray for their repentance or for God to judge such evil?

How do the Christians of the United Kingdom pray for its evil government who punish its own people who criticize the government’s special treatment of immigrant Muslims (who want to take over the country), rather than caring for UK citizens who built the country? UK jails are full of simple people, young and old, who have questioned such wickedness. The elderly especially will suffer this winter from fuel shortages because funds are going to illegal Muslims, climate change, and the proxy war of Ukraine.

It is interesting that the definition of such actions by a government is treason; it does not obey its own laws and does not care for its own people!

So, how do we as Christians pray for our nations which may be under God’s judgement for abortion, child trafficking, sexual deviancy, lawlessness, etc.

Perhaps our prayer should simply be, “Lord as you judge our nation by giving us such wicked, perverse, and evil officials, in Your wrath, please remember mercy!”
