Interceding for a Nation 5 Too many times people are like the farmer who prayed, "Lord, bless me and my wife, my son, John, and his wifeus four and no more." We may not put it exactly in those words, but that's the extent of our praying much of the time. Many times prayers are not answered for you because you are putting yourself first. Usually, people are putting themselves first, even when it comes to praying. We wonder why certain things don't go right, when, really, we are not putting first things first. In our spiritual life we blame God for our failures. We let secondary things predominate, and neglect things that should be first.

Paul said in our opening Scripture, "I exhort therefore, that, first." Let's put first things first. You could learn a lot by studying a handbook on driving, but there are some things you never would learn until you got in an automobile and started driving. You could say you believe in driving an automobile, but that doesn't mean you can drive one. Too many times we say we believe in prayer and let it go at that. Things work when we follow directions therefore, we want to take the Bible literally and do exactly as it says.

1 Timothy 2:1-4 In beginning our study on intercessory prayer, notice the word "first" in the above Scripture. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. Chapter 1 1 Interceding for a Nation I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men For kings, and for all that are in authority that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. 14 3 Praying With the Help of the Holy Spirit.
