Many of President Trump’s nominations were confirmed without much fanfare. Nominees such as Marco Rubio, Kristi Noem, and Doug Burgum sailed through the confirmation process. But the media and protestors seemed focused and appeared coordinated on stopping a select few. As hearings continued, names like Tulsi Gabbard, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and Pete Hegseth dominated every headline, homepage, and news channel.
Pray for your fellow intercessor.
Why was the media so focused on these three? Perhaps they didn’t have the money or manpower to focus on each nominee equally. Alternatively, I find it likely these names were picked intentionally. Perhaps these nominees were targeted because of the threat they posed to the establishment and the deep state.
This would certainly explain the continued attacks facing these leaders. RFK Jr., for example, recently faced a surge of anger and pushback over comments about autism. It’s hard to think of a Secretary who has it worse, however, than Pete Hegseth, the President’s Secretary of Defense.
I am sure everyone remembers the “Signalgate” story that broke in late March. IFA covered it and some of its aftermath. As a refresher, an anti-Trump journalist working for The Atlantic was mistakenly added to a chat on the app Signal, in which Trump administration officials, including Secretary Hegseth, discussed plans to strike the Houthis. It didn’t take long for the media to harass Secretary Hegseth after this controversy, demanding his resignation.
Recently, however, Hegseth found himself at the mercy of another controversy, once again related to Signal. According to a New York Times article published on Resurrection Sunday, Secretary Hegseth also shared “sensitive information” about strikes in Yemen with his wife and brother. It did not take long for the media to whip up a frenzy once again. NPR shared a headline arguing that this controversy “may be worse” than the last one.
As a side note, former Pentagon officials Dan Caldwell and Darin Selnick were included in this second Signal chat. Caldwell and Selnick were fired on Friday amid a probe into Pentagon leaks. On Saturday, they griped in a joint statement that they were “slandered” and were the victims of “baseless attacks.” Then, the day after their joint statement, the New York Times broke the latest Signal story. The timing seems awfully coincidental. Were these two disgruntled former employees involved in the leaking of this story?
Regardless of who leaked this information, the mainstream media has been working overtime to stir up the American people against Secretary Hegseth. The Atlantic, Politico, and NPR all published headlines earlier this week either calling Secretary Hegseth to resign or suggesting that the President might soon fire him. The media is trying to build an artificial consensus and convince the public that Pete Hegseth is a horrible choice for Defense Secretary and that his days in the Pentagon are numbered.
But are either of those things really the case?
President Trump, for his part, is adamant in his support of Secretary Hegseth. The White House made it clear the President “stands strongly” behind the Secretary of Defense, and it doesn’t look like he’ll be replaced anytime soon. And the Secretary has been working overtime to strengthen our military, cut wasteful spending, correct the previous administration’s mistakes, and remove bad actors from the armed forces. Most recently, he joined with other officials to stop America and Israel from striking Iran, an attack that could have potentially caused World War 3.
And yet, as we have learned, these wins are seen as problems by the deep state and the corrupt. Some liked the Pentagon’s wasteful spending, as it allowed them to line their pockets at the taxpayers’ expense. I’m also sure that, as awful as it sounds, some defense contractors would’ve preferred to see the beginning of a war with Iran, as a new war would mean a payday for them. As another side note, the New York Times reported on the latest Signal controversy only 4 days after it covered Secretary Hegseth’s attempts to prevent a war from starting. Is this another coincidence? Or, as some on the Right are suggesting, is this all part of a bigger plan to replace Secretary Pete Hegseth with a more conventional pick — someone who will put the deep state and the defense contractors above the American people.
There is a reason why President Trump has staffed his administration in part with unconventional outsiders. Secretary Hegseth may be a political outsider, just as the President himself once was, but he’s dangerous to all the right people. He’s protecting our nation and keeping the deep state on the back foot, all while giving glory to the Lord. He’s exactly what our nation needs right now, and it’s up to us to support him in prayer. Let’s pray he is able to accomplish all God has for him, and that the Enemy will not be able to stop his work!

praying for the darts of the wicked one to be thwarted, for those intentionally, or unintentionally, serving him to be convicted and change directions…praying for truth to be seen…praying, in this, for the USA to be protected and for Pete’s salvation
LORD,
Our brother (Pete Hegseth) is under attack by satanic evil forces. We know he is with YOU. During this assault, please place a hedge of protection around him, and strengthen him even more with a steel of spine to thwart of these attacks. If it be YOUR ALMIGHTY WILL let more of the American public see the honor in the man for the work that he is doing, and day by day lead the President and the American public to laugh off these childish attacks on Pete. As more and more Americans become witnesses and see Pete’s strength that YOU have given him, and many of us recognize already, please help all the People YOU are trying to reach for YOUR reasons and purposes. Let’s come together by giving YOU the HONOR and GLORY for continuing to allow Pete to stand tall for YOU!!
The Deep State is just whining because Pete is shaking up the status quo. He is an outsider and isn’t beholden to anyone or any agenda.
Father we stand on Isaiah 54:17 – “No weapon formed against you shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against you in judgment you will condemn. This is the heritage of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me says the Lord.
We decree that Jehovah Nissi, the God powerful enough to overcome any foe will protect this man, and any other cabinet members serving President Trump.
“And Judas said, “It is easy for many to be enclosed in the hands of a few for there is no difference in the sight of the God of Heaven to liberate by means of many, or by means of few. For victory in warfare is not in the multitude of the army, but in the strength from Heaven.” 1 Maccabees 3:18 -19.
EL ROI – God Who Sees Me; Yahweh Tsebaoth – The LORD of Hosts: You battled the forces of hell and overcame, You disarmed Your enemies, You defeated death and rose again.
LORD, many have prayed for the exposing and expelling of the deep state and that mouths/lies be sealed. I thank You that SoD Hegseth has not comprimised his oath, that he continues on the path which You have appointed and that he is unchanging and unwavering in his belief in his LORD Jesus Christ.
I thank You that Your Holy Spirit is hovering over and altering the atmosphere of every office, corridor and department in this Nations’ Capital, State Capitals, local government and any office that puts forth policy for the people of this Nation, that You have heard and will continue to hear the prayers of Your people for the restoration and reset of our government and Truth, Righteousness and Justice is winning, will win and will prevail for this and next generations.
You LORD, are Our Divine Master Builder, continue to renovate this Nation to Your original intent. Thank You for leading us through this battle and to Your victory. Thank You, that the help of Heaven is with each and every member of this Administration and this Nation.
In the Name above all Names, Jesus the Christ, LORD of Light.
Let Your light shine on the dark places, faces, lips and lies of the enemies.
Praying daily for the President, his cabinet, the Supreme Court, my legislators and Congresdional leaders.
Lord, we believe that Mr. Hegseth is your choice to lead our military operations and ask that you give him your wisdom and understanding on both military strategies and most important, how to conduct himself with dignity and integrity. Amen
Inadvertently, I saw on a liberal TV news clip, Mr. Hegseth comporting himself in a very juvenile response in front of the camera. Hopefully he will come to understand Prov.6.16, and mature in his responses to provocation.
YHVH, I do ask for truth to be exposed and any and all baseless allegations against Sec. Hegseth to be voided. I ask that any satanic targets on his back be removed, and that he would be targeted by You instead as a recipient of Your love, grace and mercy. May he seek You diligently so that he will have wisdom and discernment from above – that You might direct his paths.
Be brave and courageous for the Lord, your God, is with you! And American Christians are behind you in prayer 🙏
Does Mr. Hegseth have a personal relationship with Jesus?
Yes, he has stated on many occasions before his confirmation that he does.
So thankful for you Mr. HEGSETH!! Praying for you to be courageous in your faith and fruitfulness in you many heavy laden works!
Heavenly Father, we thank you that your eyes and ears are attentive to the righteous. We thank you that whatever is hidden in darkness will be brought to light.
We thank you for Secretary Pete Hegseth and that he has his fixed on you. He’s leading, with you at the helm. We know he seeks your will for his life and his the role plays in doing the job that is set before him.
We plead of Jesus over him and his family and ask that you keep him and his family and the DOD safely in your hands. Let all lies, slander, attacks from the enemy and every plan and scheme of the enemy be brought to a halt. Thank you Abba that no weapon formed against Secretary Hegseth, President Trump, VP Vance and those in the Trump administration that seek righteousness and justice , and all of their families prosper shall prosper and they shall refute every tongue that against them.
We say let God arise and His enemies scattered. Thank you that you are Lord of the fight and the battle is not ours but yours and every time one of people prays you deploy thousands of angels to go to war against your enemies.
We ask this all in the precious, mighty and matchless name of Jesus as we stand on your word knowing you watch over it to perform it. In Jesus name amen.
LET THE HIGH COURT OF HEAVEN SPEAK. THANK YOU LORD!
Lord Jesus, I thank You for Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. I pray that You give him the guidance and wisdom of Holy Spirit as he goes about performing the duties of his position. Please place a hedge of protection around Mr. Hegseth and his family. Thank you Jesus.
Mighty Father, we come to you on behalf of your servant, Pete Hegseth asking for your strengthening in his inner man, encouragement in the call you have given him to head our Defense Department. We agree that no weapon formed against him will stand and that the voices who rise against him will be condemned. May he look to you for wisdom. In Jesus name we ask for your divine protection. Amen
My prayer is for a hedge of protection to surround Secretary Hegseth and all of President Trump’s cabinet members and appointees from the lies and attacks of the enemy, and their families as well. I pray that all lies be exposed and those behind the lies to be exposed and dealt with.
Psalm 68:1-4
Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him. As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: as wax melteth before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God. But let the righteous be glad; let them rejoice before God: yea, let them exceedingly rejoice. Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the heavens by his name JAH, and rejoice before him.
Father God, thank you for Pete Hegseth and the work he is doing for our country. Let no weapon formed against him prosper in the Name of Jesus! Let God arise and His enemies be scattered. Thank you Jesus for helping President Trump choose good leaders who stand behind him for the good of America! Amen.
Jesus, strengthen Secy Hegseth’s faith. Bring him to you seeking Ps 91 protection from the media. Guard him with angels to shut his mouth when he should as Jesus did. Open his mouth when he must and guard his mind and Signal sending to be in right standing before You and then Pres Trump and the military he must guide, protect, and lead with great wisdom. Give him proverbs surgical standards that our nation may be led from heaven.
Father, I thank you for this space of grace. I’m lifting up our Secretary Pete Hegseth, who needs your hedge of protection against the weapons and lies of the enemy. We’re not fighting against flesh and blood, but against spiritual darkness. I’m praying against the weapons of darkness that is trying to be formed against him to not prosper but to be completely destroyed by the Authority of the word of God and by the power in the name of Jesus Christ! Thank you Jesus for hearing our prayers. In Jesus name amen.
Abba, Elohim, YAH,
We pray & thank You for plugging up any & all unnecessary leaks from the Trump administration. Thank you for Your angelic hosts on the job to protect the patriots & their families. Help them Lord to get the job done quickly & be home safely with their families in all their dwellings & activities. Make it a joy for them to serve the We the People. Let them not lack for anything & everything good. Let their lines fall in pleasant places, connecting the dots for their purpose & destiny. & As King David prayed, Lord, these people that they have taken council with & sat at the tables together & have turned to attacking, “cast them to the pit quickly & let them rise no more.” May they have abundant opportunities to call on Jesus & be saved, sanctified, filled with the Holy Ghost & be great volunteers & patriots of the Your Kingdom. Raise them to Your glory . Those refusing Jesus’s offer of saltation, May they fail miserably & be sent to the pit directly & quickly that no one be hurt or influenced by them in any way, shape or form.
In Jesus’s precious name,
Amein
Anyone especially in the military knows the slogan from WWII, LOOSE LIPS SINK SHIPS. that means NO ONE is allowed to know what is happening within the intelligence operations. This Signal app might be more secure than other apps, but still the rule applies, LOOSE LIPS SINK SHIPS.
Lord, cover the people in the intelligence community with great wisdom from your throne room. Let not their human emotions rule their decisions. Let the safety of America come first. If you Father God have someone else who is not compromised to put in this position, let that be known. in Jesus Name, Amen
Father, I thank you for this space of grace. I’m lifting up our Secretary Pete Hegseth, who needs your hedge of protection against the weapons and lies of the enemy.

Thank you Jesus for hearing our prayers. In Jesus name amen.
I pray that Pete Hegseth will know he is the righteous of Christ Jesus and he will remain the same in his resolve to do right. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday today and forever and he must be the same.

Let us declare the same scriptures over all of President Trump’s appointed cabinet and associates that we do for the President himself:
Psalm 31:18
“Let the lying lips (Media) be put to silence that speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.”
Isaiah 54 : 17
“No weapon formed against them shall prosper and every tongue that rises against them in judgment shall be condemned.”
Palm 2: 9-12
“You (the LORD) shall break them (the enemies) with a rod of iron;
You shall dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.
Now therefore, be instructed, you judges of the earth,
Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
Kiss the Son, lest He be angry and you perish from the way when His wrath is kindled but a little.”
ALL of Psalm 37 !!!

Mr. Hegseth was an amusing Fox News host. I am not sure he’s the best leader for our nation’s Department of Defense. I certainly pray that Truth will prevail.
My prayer is not only to protect Secretary Pete Hegseth from baseless attacks but also that the Lord will give Christians guidance on how to help silence the left leaning media who seem to be trying to destroy everything that is good and those who are genuinely pursuing God’s will. There has got to be a way for us to say “NO MORE LIES” that actually causes change.
