I Prayed have prayed
Father, protect President Trump's rights. If the Supreme Court takes this case, grant the justices sound judgment to rule on the issue.
Reading Time: 2 minutes

A new poll asked people what they think about Colorado’s removing Trump from the ballot.

From The Hill. More than half of Americans approve of a Colorado Supreme Court ruling to bar former President Trump from the state’s primary ballot, citing the 14th Amendment, according to a YouGov poll released Wednesday.

Visit your state page to pray.

 

The online survey, published just a day after the ruling, found that 54 percent of respondents either strongly or somewhat approve of the decision, with 35 percent disapproving. …

Nearly two-thirds of Democrats, 63 percent, strongly approve of the ruling, according to the poll, with another 21 percent somewhat approving.

Independents were split, but a larger proportion support the decision, 48 percent to 35 percent. About a quarter of Republicans said they support the ruling, with 12 percent strongly supporting it. …

From The Hill. Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) said Thursday he thinks the U.S. Constitution “could not be any clearer” that former President Trump is ineligible to hold public office again under the 14th Amendment.

“This is a chance for these [Supreme Court] justices to show that they really mean it when they talk about textualism, when they talk about originalism. The plain text of the Constitution could not be any clearer,” Raskin, a former constitutional law professor, said in an interview on CNN’s “The Situation Room.” …

Raskin’s remarks come as Trump has pledged to appeal a ruling from the Colorado Supreme Court that declared him ineligible to appear on the 2024 presidential ballot.

The ruling cites Section 3 of the 14th Amendment that says former public officials are ineligible to hold public office again if, “having previously taken an oath … to support the Constitution of the United States,” they “engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.” …

Do you think the Supreme Court will take this case? If it does, how do you suppose the justices will rule? Share your thoughts and prayers below or on The Community.

I vote for God fearing, Jesus believing American born presidents to RUN our country according to Elohim’s will! We need bibles back in schools not the evil woke agenda! End times are here!

I am suspicious of a lot of polls. ….who is pointing the finger at who?
I consider the present administration to be very treasonous against our constitution. With all the executive orders and laws passed that are against the constitution and the right of life, against the family, and damaging to children— again I say, who is pointing the finger at who.

Father God,

I ask that You would surround Donald Trump & his family with your protection. I ask that You would restore what the enemy has stolen.

Father, I ask You, the Righteous Judge, to intervene in the US Supreme Court & help them to give a ruling from heaven!

Thank You that righteousness & justice are the foundation of Your throne.

Have mercy on this nation because of your love.

We love You & trust You for divine intervention.

Thank You & it’s in Jesus Mighty Name I pray, amen!

Father, I pray that you will intervene in this matter concerning President Trump being allowed to run for the office of President of this country. It’s obvious that the enemy doesn’t want him in office because it will thwart his plans to bring down this nation. This country was built on biblical principles, and I bind the attempts of satan to destroy what you started Father. Father please open the eyes of the people in this nation to see how they are being blinded and deceived by the enemy. Reveal truth to them Father through visions, dreams and laborers for the gospel. In Jesus’ name, I thank you for hearing and answering my prayer.

With the people who “think” it’s a good idea to bar the “real prez” from the ballot, it’s completely obvious that they are ignorant of the laws of our nation. People, instead of being aware and informed…. give their pitiful, uneducated opinion based on their “feelings”. Truly sad and pathetic where we have degenerated into as a society. Many people don’t even have a clue of the difference between an activist court vs. a court that abides by the Constitution.

I think the court should take the case. I will pray that they do. Since President, Trump has not actually been convicted of the accusations against him, and it seems that the person who brought the case against him doesn’t have the authority to do so, there is no valid case or reason to remove him from the ballot. Trump never supported insurrection. In fact, he called for a peaceful assembly. This is recorded, and there is a video of him saying this. This is just another political ploy by the Democrats to try to get their way. I believe President Trump is clearly God‘s choice. He is the only person that can pull this country out of the mess that it’s in, and he clearly has the Republican nomination.

Lord Jesus, Righteous Judge and truly Merciful One, let Your perfect will be done, not to protect former president Trump’s rights but to glorify Your Holy Name!
Lord, I confess I don’t understand it all, Trump has not been convicted, but anyone with ears or eyes who have read his own words knows he did give comfort to those who invaded our Capital to disrupt the transition of power….and sadly, Trump is still being disruptive, in word and deed. I ask you forgive him for it as I think he wants to love America but is falling short, like we all do at one time or another.
Thank You Lord Jesus for coming into our mess, we ask You, we surrender this one to you and ask You to work it all together for good.

Dear Heavenly Father, let this nation find truth through Your Word. May they stop looking at “polls” and news pundits to guide them on how to think and feel. You are our guide, lead us all.

But when the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on His own; He will speak only what He hears, and He will tell You what is yet to come. John 16:13

Amen.

Those that approve what Colorado Supreme Court did remind me of those that approved of Hitler in the early days as he broke law after law with the approval of many Germans and Jews! Then as Hitler’s wickedness increased until it engulfed those early Hitler approvers, they realized just what they had done siding with evil that was now coming after them through their friends and children (hitler youth)! Evil is never satisfied! All you that approves of the unconstitutional denial of President Trump being on the ballot (which is not lawful for the Supreme Court to deny): just hold on; that same unlawful Supreme Court will be after your rights next Colorado citizens! Instead of approving what this unlawful, unconstitutional Supreme Court did, you should be re-calling or impeaching them! They won’t be satisfied with what they’ve done to President Trump; they will want more power by coming after you, all of Colorado! And I say Good for you! FATHER GOD, for President Trump, strive with them that strives with him and fight against them that fights against him! Pleas vindicate Trump so that the entire wicked world against him, not only sees it, but let them all feel the consequences of fighting against YOU in JESUS MIGHTY NAME! Amen!

I do not believe this poll is accurate. It’s most likely rigged. Trump did nothing wrong. They’re grasping at straws because they’re afraid of him and desperate not to lose power. Some are demon-possessed. They do not realize the only one with the real power is God himself. The Master of the universe. Truth and justice will prevail. God is on the side of righteousness. He alone will win. Lord, save us from our enemies. Amen.

Protecting life, loving Israel, putting God first, calling out the haters is easily gotten and understandable. What floors me is seeing supposed Christ followers identify as never trumpers which leaves only one choice to vote for, that of pro abortion / murder, abduction and trafficking, appeasement of our enemies, taxation without representation and constitutional treason.
The prophets and Jesus spoke the truth and they were targeted for death. But, Yahweh will make his cause shine like the moon day sun.

Interesting that Gavin Newsom is opposed to keeping Trump off the ballot in California. He thinks it’s a bad idea. Every time they try to indict Trump or keep him off the ballot, he surges in the polls.
Also, I would question the survey’s validity. They know how to get the results they want. That said, this is not going to end up the way they want. They are desperate and making very bad choices. Trump will win.

First of all, he has NEVER BEEN CONVICTED of insurrection, nor has he done anything to have them strike him from the ballot ..

President Trump has not been convicted of insurrection, and he has been framed to say the least. I do not agree with banning him from running for office. With that said, I pray this prayer: Father, I love You, and I trust You, to bring justice and mercy for President Trump. The devil has robbed him from his rightful place as President. I believe You called him to lead this country, because he follows Your principles, and you have given him great wisdom and truth. He listens to Your voice. Your will be done! In Jesus most precious name.

President Trump does not deserve this witch hunt. He did not commit any crime nor he has not been convicted of insurrection..

Since when do we make a person prove innocence instead of having guilt proved? It was a sad day when the Colorado Supreme Court decided Trump was guilty of a charge he hasn’t been charged with! I didn’t think the courts would rule based on their fear or hatred of a person. Sad day.

Many people forget that we are not a democracy where the majority always rules. We are a Constitutional Republic, where the Constitution sets boundaries for our elected officials to create laws. The “current” views of the majority change often, so we have a steady set of rights and rules that the fickle majority cannot violate. President Trump (and everyone else) should be judged based on his Constitutional rights (based on immutable Biblical values), not the ever-changing opinions of a majority of voters. This is why our Founders were fervently against a simple democracy and called it “mob rule.”

    This is the reason that the justice system is layered. Someone can appeal and there are higher courts which can overrule a lower court. Yes, it is not perfect. Sometimes the innocent gets convicted, but the system helps prevent that. Anyway, now is not the time for outrage because this ruling can get overturned down the line.

    But this also helps us see the importance of keeping politics out of the judicial branch. Any politicians who is campaigning on the promise of taking control of the justice branch and forcing it to follow his political ideals should be looked at closely.

People are scarred of President Trump being voted in again…. Why? Because President Trump follows the laws of God rather than the laws of man, and this puts fear in their hearts and minds.

Following man made laws will only lead us further down the selfish, fighting path we are currently on. Continuing on this path will only lead us in a downward spiral towards increased depravity, loneliness, directionless and increased evil.

How sad and evil our hearts and minds have become if this scenario is really what we long for.

Dear Jesus, PLEASE redeem our hearts. Replace our current hearts of vial evil and replace them with hearts of love, concern and caring for ourselves and each other.

    God’s laws? Are we talking about ‘forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us?
    Or how about ‘thou shalt not lie (Trump clearly lied about the square footage of his property. Not saying he should be charged because no one was defrauded but he did lie by a factor of 3X.)

    God established government and laws so that mankind would have order. Their authority comes from God, and even in the case of Rome, Paul told Christians they should honor God by following the laws (with the exception being the worship of other Gods.)

He was never charged with what they are accusing him of and ruled upon. It’s like ruling “murder is wrong” then convicting someone who happened to be walking by the courthouse at the time. This of course is targeted for politics reasons but convicting someone without a charge, a trial, or a sentence is as in-constitutional as it can get! Especially if it’s done to a former president of all people!! This pole is extremely disturbing and shows just how delusional so many people are because of the never ending propaganda machine that is sponsored by the corrupt organizations who are fully using psychological warfare against our own populous. It’s terrible! God please help us all! Open the eyes of those who cannot see the truth! Please protect Trump during this time lord for I fear if he falls the same power that is trying to destroy him will be turned upon the Christian community.

    Why did the Colorado Supreme Court decide Trump was guilty of insurrection even though he hasn’t been charged with it? The evidence that shows he did not encourage the riots and overthrow of the government has been covered up. The hatred of Trump is showing up in unjust rulings. Let the trials decide his guilt.

Jim, I am curious to the source of the information. Im leery of polls. Not putting him on ballot is a violation of our rights as voters to decide who we want, not a few people saying we know best so he’s off ballot. Let people decide. If he’s really not wanted they’ll not vote for him. No small group should decide who we the people want. He’s not perfect but I believe he looks out for America. More than I can say for the last 3and 1/2 years of Marxism.

    My remark was in response to the survey the Hill was reporting on, but I agree that polling is questionable now because smaller numbers of people are polled and sometimes organizations that poll return to the same pool over and over again. And I think as politics have become more intense, some individuals don’t respond to poll requests and those individuals are usually the more conservative Democrats and the Republicans who don’t support Trump. Without their input, the polls are going to be off but if they are off, it would be that in Trump’s favor. The poll which the Hill is reporting on is based on an online survey which means they have no way of knowing that all groups are responding, and so it is probably not accurate (IFA is bad about using unreliable sources.) But if you want a source for polls, there is Realclear polling. They collect polls taken by news sources, universities and political organizations. They generally show that when Trump is pitted against Biden, as low as Biden’s ratings are, it is almost even with sometimes Trump beating Biden by +2 and sometimes losing by +7.

      A professional poll is going to be more reliable than one taken by other sources. One reason for that is because their reputation and future income is based on their getting an accurate result. And the test of their accuracy is how close they come to the actual election results. You can almost usually tell that a poll is professional if they include their polling method, and some measure of how off it might be. However, even professional polls are more questionable these days because they are polling smaller groups and often returning to the same groups. And then there is the fact that some groups have grown weary of politics, and they don’t respond.

What the remark about ‘more than half the country believing that the Colorada courts are right’ does is remind me that the opposition to Donald Trump is so intense that he is unlikely to win the presidential election. If the Republican party wishes to win, if Christians want to have an influence, then we need to look at other candidates or we will miss our opportunity.

If the court allows Colorado to do this we have lost our republic. Trump was never indicted or tried for this phoney insurrection nonsense. If this were a true insurrection where were the guns, bombs and other weapons. True insurrection would be akin to the burning of cities, businesses, federal buildings as we saw a few years back. No charges to my knowledge ever were brought. When you take the rights of a people away to select a leader you have become a banana Republic. Trump has been persecuted relentlessly for speaking out against the deep state controlling our government. If they win, Christians, Jews and anyone speaking truth against this evil will also be persecuted and jailed. We all better be on our knees and praying against this evil. If we don’t have a victory we can kiss America as we know it good bye.🇺🇲🇮🇱✝️🕎

I believe that the LORD will establish truth for the Supreme Court ruling, establishing that there is no truth in the insurrection or rebellion actions that President Donald J. Trump was accused of but instead was unlawfully accused and set up by the plans of the enemy – satan himself being the perpetrator of this plan against President Donald J. Trump and using many in the political realm to aid in the lies against an innocent man!!!

Given the events that took place prior to the sixth, such as refusing to have the Capital police and additional people involved to protect the crowd; the inclusion of Black Lives Matter it’s pretty clear that a few left leaning individuals were behind the events on the sixth. Additionally, footage from the sixth indicates more of what actually took place and not what was told by the fake news. it’s hard to imagine that so many independence could fall for the propaganda.

    Another group with the similar mindset ( totalitarian rule ) operated throughout Germany in the 19 twenties to mid 40’s. Propaganda usually works where the propagandist has the power to continue repeating any lies whilst silencing every opposite view.
    This is precisely what we are currently experiencing in this “NAZI Republik of Amerika”, and this current mess was initiated by the Obama gang who continue to direct it through their puppet in The White House and the corrupt “Deep State”.

My understanding is that President Trump was not charged with insurrection therefore he shouldn’t be removed from the CO ballot. My heart breaks for this man in that he has always had to fight for everything since becoming President.
