I Prayed have prayed
Lord, we ask You to protect President Trump from the attacks of the enemy. You showed the world Your power when You miraculously protected him in Pennsylvania, and we pray You would do it again.
Reading Time: 2 minutes

On Thursday, former FBI Director James Comey shared an Instagram post that seemed to call for the assassination of President Donald Trump.

Who is praying on the wall?

 

From Just the News:

The social media post, which Comey shared on Instagram but has since removed, showed the numbers “8647” etched in the sand at a beach via seashells. The numbers are perceived as a call to “86” the 47th president, which is used as a call sign for murder,Ā perĀ Fox News.

ComeyĀ attemptedĀ to walk back the post, which he originally captioned “Cool shell formation on my beach walk,” by stating he was unaware of the violent message behind the numbers.

“I posted earlier a picture of some shells I saw today on a beach walk, which I assumed were a political message,” Comey’s second post read. “I didn’t realize some folks associate those numbers with violence. It never occurred to me but I oppose violence of any kind so I took the post down.”

You can see both the original post and Comey’s follow-up in the tweet below.

The federal government was quick to respond to this threat. White House Deputy Chief of Staff and Cabinet Secretary Taylor Budowich posted on X that the Instagram post is “deeply concerning” and “being taken seriously.” Additionally, both the Secret Service and the FBI are now aware of the matter.

From Fox News:

Shortly after Comey removed the post, Fox News Digital learned from a source in the Secret Service that the agency was aware of the matter and will be sending agents to investigate and interview Comey.

Trump’s new FBI director,Ā Kash Patel,Ā acknowledged on X that agency personnel were “aware” of Comey’s post in his own statement shared on X.

“We are in communication with the Secret Service and Director Curran,” Patel said. “Primary jurisdiction is with SS on these matters and we, the FBI, will provide all necessary support.”

At this point in time, President Trump has already been a victim of two failed assassination attempts. As he continues to fight for our nation and its people, let’s pray the Lord continues to protect him from all attacks and attempts on his life!

Comey is a liar and a traitor both of which are proven facts. If the FBI was still run like before they would show up at his home armed and guns aimed at everyone there, but no, now our FBI follows the law. Comey is guilty of encouraging the assassination of President Trump. God will take care of this. Trust in God. šŸ™šŸ˜‡šŸ™

Comey has never made any attempt to hide his hatred and disdain for President Trump, not in the past nor the present. Somebody needs to sit him down and explain to him that is illegal TO THREATEN THE LIFE OF A PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! What disgusting behavior for a man who is supposed to be working for the law of this country! He should be fired and jailed immediately for this most disrespectful behavior!

I think they should lock that guy up and put him out of the country. How foolish this stuff they feel they hey can get away with violence with pretending they don’t know. Just because a criminal pretends he didn’t do a crime doesn’t make it legal. How stupid and gross this man is making a mockery of the Country I think he should be shipped to the nearest communist country or a country without rights and no one should care if he can’t act right being the former FBI director then we can’t act right either just ship him out and then go we didn’t know we couldn’t do that it’s so ignorant it’s madness

Dear Lord Jesus, We thank you for your protection of President Trump from the attacks of Enemy. He has been Impeached, Indicted, Raided, Arrested, and Assassinated since he started running for president because he was a threat to established political, media, and global power structures – from both the left and the right. He sacrificed everything to Save America and never stopped fighting, never Surrender, no matter what! He started a Golden Age of America and Making America Great Again! Lord, We condemn James Comey’s Double Standards to cover Hilary Clinton’s criminal activity, but called for ā€œ47ā€ to be ā€œ86ā€. Right now we lift up President Donald Trump into Your hands. Surround him with Your divine protection—physically, spiritually, and politically. Guard him from schemes, slander, and unjust attacks. Lord, we ask You to shine Your light on every corner of corruption. Expose the lies, and bring justice to this land. Let righteousness be restored in our courts, our government, and our national conscience. We pray for courage for those who stand for truth, even when the cost is great. May Your will be done in America, as it is in heaven. In Jesus name. Amen

Comey should have dismantled those shells, not post them. He posted a threat on the president’s life. This should raise a high alert and Comey should suffer some sort of repercussion. Definitely increase security around the President and find an email of Comey’s where he uses ā€œ86ā€ in context, exposing his lie, and press charges.

Comey has never been a Trump supporter. He has repeatedly sabotaged our President while head of the FBI and since. He is not dumb, he knew exactly what he was doing. He is just trying to pull a “Hillary” pretending he did not know what “86” meant.

    Thank You, Father God, for shielding and protecting the POTUS, his family, and that of VP JD Vance as well! Let no harm come to either of them or any member of their family, as well as any member of the Cabinet men and women! We finally have someone righteous in power, which we have prayed for so long a time and asked You to remove those who have been trying their best to completely destroy our beloved country You have given us! All praise, worship, honor and thanksgiving be to You, blessed One!

If Comey had not known what this message meant, he would not have thought anything about it enough to post it as interesting. This is even assuming he didn’t put this together himself.

    I believe that the evil one, Comey DID if fact, create this hate-filled message and send it! He is certainly capable of such wickedness against our President!

Father thank you that You placed Trump as our President for such a
time as this. We declare that no weapon that is formed against him
will prosper and everything he does will prosper. We pray angels have charge over Trump to keep him in all his ways in his pathway there is life and no death. He lies down to sleep and his sleep is sweet. As his day so shall his strength and rest and security be.

This matter of thinly veiled public attack of strongly suggested abject assassination of the President of the United States, published by the former highest ranking federal officer of the FBI who is also the chief enforcer of justice nationally, has effectively crossed the Rubicon in two courts of jurisdiction wherein patience can and will run out. The firstl court is the necessary upholding of law and order in the implementation of foundational constitutional law and the enforcement of the necessary ensuing order pertinent to the maintainence of our national compact of expected peace. Therefore, this highest ranking former federal government officer’s public action demands prosecution forthwith. This is in agreement and accordance with the second court which is found in the heavens, where patience is extensive and not readily exhausted, not willing to invoke the implementation of quick judgment due to the terminal nature of justice and judgment. Nevertheless, the first court’s decisions can be and/or will be upheld or overriden by the second heavenly court’s decrees and patience will have run it’s course. Consequently, great sorrow and joy will be heard abroad and fear will be given to all in terrible fearful worship of the sitting Judge in the Court of Heaven. And on earth, ourselves – whose duty and honor it is to execute His will even as it is done in heaven. Let our repentance rise up as rivers of waters in the darkness of our moral night before the flood waters of heaven’s just judgment comes down …speedily.

Was this done purposely to take the focus off of Trump’s historic visit to the Middle East and the respect he has abroad?

YHVH, please continue to overshadow and protect our President, government leaders and their families. We want this death cult that has taken root in our nation to be broken and dispelled by a restoration of the value of LIFE – both natural and spiritual. Revive us, and awaken the lost!

Is there grounds for treasonous charges… to incite assasination of a sitting president wouldseem serious enough for some serous consequensses. In general, the big boys and girls who appesr VERY GUILTY of cromesafsinst our constitution have not be helld accountablle —Biden Comey Hilary Obama …. and existing constitutional grounds for limiting the courts piwer have been ignored. The three branches if government were never meant to be equally powerful. yYhe judicial was to be the weakest and congresss the mist powerful ….

If it were anyone else they’d be in prison already. Stop delaying death threat reaction and put comey behind bars. Threats are serious business. Stop the BS and do something beside talking…!!!

Comey is a swamp creature and detested trump. There’s no doubt in my mind that Pennsylvania was a set up. There are way too many things that went wrong and questions that have never been answered and FBI statements That were completely oblique as they obviously were in CYA mode.

How can a former FBI Director not know the meaning of what he posted! It was an intentional call for Trump’s assassination. Lock him up.

America continues to be a nation of murder, shedding of innocent blood or not innocent. How do you silence the opposition, remove burdensome people-unwanted baby, irritating neighbor/coworker, politician? Answer: Murder. It’s the devil’s answer to solve perceived problems. Humans comply to this evil. Killing presidents, govenment leaders is an ongoing solution. Threats of murder must be stopped. We are weary from the stories of mass murders, the individual murder. We eagerly look for Jesus to return when murder won’t be in our hearts

    Amen! We need revival so badly in this country, starting with those at the top! Our entire government is full of wicked people like Comey, trying to encourage the citizens to rise up in hatred and violence, against the righteous! Help us, Lord, to change the hearts and minds of people in authority over us, that they set a holy and decent example for our children and grandchildren coming up! What a horrible example Comey sets for all of the citizens of this great country that You have given us! Please remove these kinds of folks from our presence, in Jesus’s Name. Amen!
