The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee – London 2012
Today, we give thanks to God for the life and Christian witness of Queen Elizabeth II. May God continue to bless her. The UK and Commonwealth is fortunate indeed to have her as our Monarch.
God save the Queen. The Bible commands:
‘I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people – for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Saviour, who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all people’. I Timothy 2: 1-5
