Thank GOD for Governor DeSantis! FATHER GOD please send YOUR angels to surround and protect him and his family in JESUS Name! May his actions embolden cowardly Governors all over America to stand up for the Constitutional rights of their citizens, especially in being forced against their will or beliefs to take the vaccine also in JESUS Name! Amen!

Way to go Gov DeSantis. God bless you and continue to inspire you with great wisdom.

Lord I pray that other states will follow the lead and example of commonmsense that’s being shown here. We are not mindless puppets to be manipulated, we are free people in the constitution and by Christ Jesus and His blood.
