I Prayed have prayed
Lord, grant our leaders courage, wisdom, and resolve to defend freedom against China’s growing threats and preserve truth in our time.
Reading Time: 2 minutes

The Bible warns that “if the trumpet does not sound a clear call, who will get ready for battle?” (1 Corinthians 14:8). Today, America faces such a moment of decision. While Washington spends its attention on Ukraine and the Middle East, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is amassing the most formidable military challenge our nation has encountered in generations.

Pray for your fellow intercessor.

 

China’s rapid buildup is staggering: a navy of over 370 warships, hundreds of missile silos, stealth aircraft, fortified islands in the South China Sea, and a fast-growing space and cyber force. Beijing even presses into the Arctic under the guise of “research.” All the while, U.S. forces remain stretched thin, underfunded, and dependent on aging platforms from a bygone Cold War posture.

The imbalance is striking. A single American aircraft carrier costs $13 billion; China can build swarms of anti-ship missiles for a fraction of the price. U.S. missile defenses, while advanced, are limited and could be overwhelmed in hours by coordinated Chinese barrages. Stockpiles of munitions, resilient supply chains, and shipbuilding capacity all lag far behind what would be needed in a sustained conflict.

This is not a distant or hypothetical danger. Xi Jinping has declared that the “reunification” of Taiwan is a historical mission, and has ordered the People’s Liberation Army to be prepared by 2027. History shows that Chinese leaders do not wait for perfect readiness before striking. Already, Beijing employs tactics short of war—daily incursions near Taiwan, cyberattacks, and coercive diplomacy—to weaken deterrence without firing a shot.

China’s strategy is clear: stretch America thin abroad, exploit economic and military gaps, and slowly shift the balance of power until freedom is in retreat. If the United States continues “fiddling while Rome burns,” we risk handing the 21st century to a communist regime hostile to liberty and faith.

The time is late, but it is not too late. History—and Heaven—will not forgive a nation that squandered its blessings while evil advanced unchecked.

In times like these, its a blessing to have His Word to guide us! We need to stay steady, in season and out of season, readiness is studying out of season, and the spiritual battles we are in, is in season! Ephesians is such a great letter of Paul, written for exhortation, instruction and encouragement. One to definitely read as we are preparing for our walk with Jesus Christ, and for guidance in being His workers in His church, His bride! In the last chapter, of Eph. 6:10-20, we are told how to gear up from the wiles of the devil, and pray for boldness, being watchful, praying always with all our prayers made in supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end, being with all perseverance and supplication for all saints…We are all as members of His church, saints, not ” Sainted” as in a denominational title, but as His represenatives of His church, and stewards of our Faith in Him. We are to put on our whole armor of God withstand the wiles of the devil. We are to stand up strong in The Lord, and power of His might, in the evil day! It is an evil day, we are living in, as each generation before us have also. There was the presence of evil, always to lead us away from our Savior and our Father!
We are looking to our president, to lead us out of one bad policy after another, that took our country to almost the ends of our rights and freedoms, to just be Christians, and so much more! But, our president is just a man, and can only do so much, without prayers and supplication, and all of us walking and praying in The Lord!
The last thing, in regards to yet another evil entity, using China, to entice our government and President Trump away, from our Father’s plan, is it was just mentioned this morning, in news on RAV, (Real Americas Voice), President Trump is considering allowing 600,000 college stidents in to our colleges! Please, please pray against this idea! After all we have just been through, and almost had our food supplies poisoned by Chinese college students, our very country poisoned by their cooperative plan with evil scientists etc. by vaccines and plagues, how could this even be a consideration?
Sisters and Brothers in Jesus Christ, this is not anti China, its being vigilant in protecting our country from the evils of this generation from China coerced and brainwashed to be Communists and destroying our nation! Many , many satanic forces are about, we need to Satnd Up Against it all! Keep praying against it all, teach your children well, lets Do This!
Dear Father in heaven,
Hear us Oh Lord, Guide us in all Your ways, and means. Let us be open to Your Word, to obey, and be strong against all that comes against us. Forgive us all, in the weaknesses of our minds and spirits, while not being watchful or diligent in serving You, and obeying Your Word!
Give our President Trump and his advisors wisdom and strength against ill fated decisions towards policies that have evil intentions from our enemies!
You Know our nations needs and struggles, and what our duties are to be as citizens, here on earth, and in heaven! Please help us to know better!
Thank you Father,
In Jesus Christ’s Name,
Amen
