Proverbs 8:15-16 — “By me kings reign and rulers issue decrees that are just; by me princes govern, and nobles—all who rule on earth.”

Father, we pray for wisdom and discernment in the appointment of judges, officials, and other leaders in positions of influence. May those chosen be people of integrity who seek justice and righteousness. Guide the decisions of those who appoint, that they may choose individuals who will uphold truth and fairness. Let Your hand be upon the process, and may each position be filled according to Your will and purpose. We trust that You are ultimately the one who raises up leaders and places them in authority. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
