Bible Verse
MAY 2026
Submit yourselves to [the authority of] every human institution for the sake of the Lord [to honor His name], whether it is to a king as one in a position of power, or to governors as sent by him to bring punishment to those who do wrong, and to praise and encourage those who do right. For it is the will of God that by doing right you may silence (muzzle, gag) the [culpable] ignorance and irresponsible criticisms of foolish people. Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover or pretext for evil, but [use it and live] as bond-servants of God. Show respect for all people [treat them honorably], love the brotherhood [of believers], fear God, honor the king.
1 Peter 2:13-17

- For leaders throughout the world, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. I Timothy 2: 1-2
- That as believers, we "live an honorable life." I Peter 2:17
- For our government "for there is no authority except that which God has established." Romans 13:1.
- That the hungry will have nourishing food today and that their physical needs be met through the generosity of others and the abundance you have placed in this world. The homeless will be protected as they seek shelter.
