How to Pray for the Nation by Cheryl White, Founder of GAPP Moments, is a practical, Scripture-centered guide designed to help believers move beyond frustration, fear, and political arguments and become effective intercessors for their nation.
This guide explores what the Bible teaches about praying for governments, leaders, communities, justice, righteousness, repentance, revival, protection, and the spiritual condition of a nation.
One of the most important sections addresses a question many believers struggle with:
