“Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceful life in all godliness and reverence. (1 Timothy 2:1-2, NKJV)

In the first chapter of this epistle, Paul talked about teachers whose outlook were narrow and pray only for those of their own circle.

We should avoid such selfishness and narrow-mindedness. Believers should pray for all without discrimination, for God wants us to lead a quiet, peaceful, godly and reverent life.
