God is the God of the nations. Egypt’s pharoah, Persia’s Cyrus, Artaxerxes of Persia among others were guided by the hand of God to carry out His plan. God protects His territory. God is above them all and overseas them all. So, while others get anxious, we pray: unite us, strengthen us and appoint and anoint our leaders.
