Memory Verse: 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 peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. 1 Timothy 2:1-2 (NKJV).

Barely a month in office, the new president who took his oath of office is going full throttle in the fight against waste and corruption.
On his first day in office, he made a surprise visit to the Finance Ministry, where he castigated civil servants who were not at their desks.
The President has banned foreign travel for most government officials. He cut a bloated delegation for the Commonwealth Heads of Government meeting from 50 to just four.
Photos of the President cleaning up garbage in the streets are all over the social media. He had cancelled lavish Independence Day celebrations and instead, ordered that the funds be used to fight a cholera outbreak that had killed dozens of people and sickened nearly 5,000 more.
Friends, hope you aren’t taking it for granted if you’re the Class Captain, first born or school prefect? God never carelessly place His people in governance. God is fine-tuning the leadership spirit in you. Make a mark for Him!
