A Prayer for President Trump and America

 


Oh, how I praise Almighty God! Prayers are being answered within the last three day since the inauguration. Please join me in this prayer:
 
"We praise You, Adonai, for your power. We’ve watched You preserve and protect Donald Trump for such a time as this. May your angels continue to surround him today and in the days ahead as he makes decisions that will rock the country and the world. 
 
Glory to YOU, Lord! All glory and praise to You for letting us be alive to see Your mighty works in the days ahead. We agree that the Golden Era is beginning.
 
We pray for a revival of righteousness - holiness --obedience to Your will, Your ways, and Your Word.
Please give us ALL Your strength to continue to do the right thing. Thank You for giving us Donald Trump as a role model. He has held steadfastly to his mission — to make America Great Again -- to stand up for truth and justice.
 
We pray for him to daily seek Your face and Your Word and that his vision will spread throughout the world.
 
May Your Kingdom come soon, and Your will be done through each of us.
 
We pray and believe in the name of Yeshua our Messiah.

North Carolina and California


The devastating fires in California are so terrible.  Pray for these people.  Like in Appalachia, so many have lost everything, including the land their homes stood on.  I remember the horrible fires we had here in Florida in 2006.  Fires were burning on both sides of the expressway, and both sides of the St Johns River for many days.  There was a fire burning just one block from my house. It seemed like the fires would never stop, and I feared my home would be destroyed.  The only thing that stopped the fires was rain.  So, please join us in praying for rain in California. 

We're still following and praying for the folks affected by Hurricane Helene in Appalachia.  It is encouraging to see that help is still available through private groups and churches.  FEMA doesn't do much.  The victims get a lump sum $750 and if they've lost their homes, they get vouchers to stay in hotels for a few months.  That's it as far as I know.  But neighbors are helping neighbors and there are groups that are helping to provide RVs, tiny homes, and some are helping buy land and homes.  Sadly, though, some people are living in tents. 

I hope you will help if you're able.  Here is an updated list of groups that are helping:  I got this list from Tipper at Celebrating Appalachia on You Tube.  I love her channel. She posts every day and her vlogs are always interesting.

Pray for the Senate Confirmation Hearings

 


 

This week, hearings will begin to confirm the nominees for President Trump's Cabinet. "It is time to remind Republican US Senators of the importance to strongly stand for and confirm the cabinet nominations of President Elect Donald Trump who will put into place the policies necessary to achieve the values represented by the November 5th voter mandate."*  Please join me in praying for the nominees and the Senators who will be serving in the hearings.  

You can watch the hearings on YouTube - just search for "Senate Confirmation Hearings 2024".  You will find many outlets that are carrying the hearings.

Use this link to find and contact your U.S. Senator and remind them to support President's choices.

 https://www.senate.gov/senators/senators-contact.htm

Also, here is a resource for the hearings each day this week:

The Intecessors For America website https://ifapray.org is a great resource and highly recommend them. I subscribe to their daily emails.

 

I found this article that I think is helpful as we go this process, which is about the faith of several of the nominees:  https://decisionmagazine.com/a-biblical-influence/
