	Description:		With the election of Pope Leo XIV—Cardinal Robert Prevost, the first American-born Pope—believers across all denominations are reminded of the biblical call to pray for leaders in high positions. In today’s devotional, Kyle Norman encourages us to set aside doctrinal differences and lift up this influential spiritual leader in prayer. Whether Catholic or Protestant, we are invited to pray for the Pope’s faith, humility, and boldness in gospel-centered leadership. Themes Explored: The biblical mandate to pray for leaders Unity in Christ beyond denominational lines The Pope’s global spiritual influence Temptations in ministry and the need for prayer A heart for gospel proclamation Scripture Reference 1 Timothy 2:1-2 “First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way.” Read 1 Timothy 2:1-2 on BibleStudyTools.com Prayer Summary Today’s prayer boldly asks God to guide Pope Leo XIV with wisdom, humility, and a heart anchored in Christ. We pray for the Pope’s protection from spiritual threats, his faithfulness to God’s Word, and his ability to lead with gospel-centered clarity in a divided world. We pray not in agreement with all doctrines, but in agreement with God’s will to see leaders serve with love, truth, and boldness. Calls to Action Pray for your leaders—both spiritual and political. Reflect on 1 Timothy 2:1-2 and commit to regular intercession for those in high positions.
