After talks in Berlin this week, the leaders of Italy, Germany and France have ruled out any informal talks with Britain on leaving the EU, raising the prospect of a lengthy political vacuum within the EU. Pray for God to dispel anger and selfish ambition from the spiritual and emotional atmosphere of the 27 nations. Over the past week the media has been suggesting that European political chiefs will take advantage of Brexit by unveiling a long-held plan to morph the continent’s countries into one ‘giant super-state’. Pray for God to thwart any plans rooted in mammon and for the wellbeing of all areas of society to be well thought-out by politicians. This week the US secretary of state, John Kerry, visited the UK to meet David Cameron and the foreign secretary Philip Hammond. He urged all EU leaders not to ‘lose their heads’ and take revenge on the UK after its decision to leave, saying there is a need for ‘wise choices’ or else the pressure for EU disintegration will intensify.
